AVP is another vector for vendor lock-in, same as iOS. It cannot even do video out from a Macbook, because then you might actually play a video or a game without passing through Cupertino's toll gates.
- satvikpendem 3y agoIt's a shame, I wonder when we'll get the comparable version of AVP as Android or Windows is to their respective Apple devices. I definitely don't want to mirror a Mac to play games, lol.

- satvikpendem 3y agoThanks, I'll take a look. It'd be better if it were a full replacement to a PC or phone, but that might take yet more time to develop.
- LeoPanthera 3y ago> It cannot even do video out from a Macbook Huh? They demo it doing exactly this in the WWDC keynote video. The user looks at their MacBook, the MacBook screen goes blank and is replaced by a virtual, floating, larger screen, which can be moved in space and resized.
- satvikpendem 3y agoThat's mirroring over WiFi, not true video out like the Oculus devices do, which introduces latency and compression artifacts.
