Apple Vision Pro is redefining how we experience digital content—but what about watching Netflix on it? As of 2025, Netflix still hasn’t released a dedicated Vision Pro app. But don’t worry—there are multiple ways to enjoy your favorite shows and movies on Vision Pro. In this guide, we’ll walk you through five proven methods to watch Netflix on Apple Vision Pro, with bonus tips for offline viewing.
Part 1: What is Apple Vision Pro?
Apple Vision Pro is Apple’s first spatial computer, combining virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). With ultra-high-resolution displays, advanced sensors, and visionOS, it offers an immersive experience unlike anything else.
Key Features of Apple Vision Pro:
- Dual 4K micro-OLED displays (23M+ pixels total)
- M2 and R1 chips for real-time performance

- App support via visionOS and iPadOS compatibility
Whether you're watching movies, browsing, or multitasking with spatial apps, Vision Pro turns any room into a private cinema.

Netflix chose not to build a native app for Apple Vision Pro at launch. Currently, users can’t record a Vision Pro-specific app from the App Store. That said, Netflix still works perfectly well through browsers and third-party apps—just not as an immersive native experience.
Netflix told Bloomberg in 2024 that they’re "monitoring adoption" before committing to a new platform.
