Anchors don’t consistently appear in the same place across sessions. I’ve tried using image anchors, but they didn’t improve accuracy much. How can I create a stable world map for a larger area and reliably relocalize anchors? Are there better approaches or recommended resources for this?

Each view attachment fades out after user interaction, by animating the view's opacity. What I'm observing is that depending on the position of a view attachment relative to the scene and the camera, an unwanted cutout effect is observed (presumably because of draw order issues), as shown in the right column in the screenshots below.

However, I have noticed trouble with animating each individual instance. As I wanted low-level control, I'm using a custom system and LowLevelInstanceData.replace(using:) to update the transform each frame. The update closure itself is extremely efficient (Xcode Instruments reports nearly no cost). But I noticed extremely high runloop time, reach around 20ms.

Wed, 25 Jun 2025 04:50:44 GMT mcdopsa https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/759729 Hello! I have an iOS app where I am looking into support for visionOS. I have a whole bunch of gestures set up using UIGestureRecognizer and so far most of them work great in visionOS! But I do see something odd that I am not sure can be fixed on my end. I have a UITapGestureRecognizer which is set up with numberOfTouchesRequired = 2 which I am assuming translates in visionOS to when you tap your thumb and index finger on both hands. When I tap with both hands sometimes this tap gesture gets kicked off and other times it doesn't and it says it only received one touch when it should be two. Int...
