hi there,
one thing i'm working on for the vision pro requires knowing the user's heading relative to north (magnetic or true). basically it's working with objects located using geo coordinates, and getting an angle of the direction the user is facing relative to them.
on iOS and watchOS, i can use CMMotionManager's CMDeviceMotion heading property. looking at the docs it says this heading is there for visionOS, as is the xMagneticNorthZVertical reference frame.. however it seems like there is no magnetometer?
it's a bit hard to tell in the simulator since isDeviceMotionAvailable, isAccelerometerAvailable and isGyroAvailable all return false. while isMagnetometerAvailable is a compile error (unavailable in visionOS).
is there - or will there be - a way i can get the user's heading relative to north?
