Xcode not finding Apple Vision Pro to build app

You connect to the headset over wifi, not with a cable.

In the headset navigate to Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Enable Developer Mode (at the bottom)

Restart the headset and it should now show up in Xcode -> Window -> Devices and Simulators

Not sure where this info might be in the official docs...

I couldn't work out how to do this either but then I was able to get it working by going into Settings > General > Remote Devices. Then I selected my Mac and entered the code. Only after it was paired with my Mac like this was I able to go into Privacy & Security then enable Developer Mode at the bottom to use it with Xcode.

Can we purchase some sort of USB C data cable for being able to install our apps to test without using Wifi?

So just to clear up, the full steps are:

1. Connect to same wifi network
2. On Vision Pro -> Settings > General > Remote Devices
3. On Mac -> Xcode -> Devices & Simulators -> Select the Vision Pro & enter the code
4. On Mac -> Run a build targeted at your vision pro device which should now be a run destination (Developer mode setting wasn't visible till I did this), you will get an error saying developer mode is not enabled
5. On Vision Pro -> Privacy & Security > Developer Mode

Quite a process, surprised someone forgot to document this :)

i can't seem to find my vision pro in bluetooth on my mac... is this an OS or firmware issue? which version are u using

Please see this article for information about the steps you need to take to run your app on a Vision Pro: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/running-your-app-in-simulator-or-on-a-device#Connect-real-devices-to-your-Mac

after remote connecting it shows my vision pro on the right panel, but not as a listed device. and developer mode doesnt show up in settings.

oh wait does it require a apple silicon mac? if so, thats wack!

Hi Guys, I tried all the steps.

It gives me a code but once I enter it doesn't show connect on my Xcode, but I can see my Mac name in Vision Pro under the remote device. Also, I don't see a developer mode option under the privacy menu. I using Intel Mac, too with Xcode 15.2

Anyone has found solution?

You need an Apple silicon Mac to deploy on an Apple Vision Pro device. It doesn't connect with the Apple Intel chip even in Xcode 15. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/visionos

Raise a request to Apple to support Intel Macs.

Same issue. Done everything that has been suggested here it still does not work. It works on my home WiFi, but not on my office WiFi. It looks like Apple requires a WiFi network that supports Bonjour. Need to have another conversation with our IT people. It's ironic that they can implement Mac screen sharing without requiring an external wiFi network, but do not support the same connection for app installation and debugging. 🤦‍♂️

I tried with every step mentioned but still with no luck. It shows once in a while after multiple times restarting connect/disconnect BT, having on same wifi. But once removed and add again doesn't show up in Xcode.

I tried all of these steps. Even when my MacBook is displaying to the VisionPro. just ran software updates on both and that seems to have worked

thanks!
