Hastily changed its name to make an own dragon, Apple Vision Pro headshow development kit is full of "xrOS"

According to CTOnews.com6, there are different opinions about the origin of the "visionOS" name used by Apple's Vision Pro, but there is a lot of evidence that the "visionOS" name was hastily renamed on the eve of the launch.

It is reported that Apple mentioned "xrOS" 45 times in its video for developers. Obviously, due to the short renaming time, many videos cannot be re-recorded, so Apple has no choice but to release these unmodified videos to developers.

▲ is the source of a developer-oriented video of Apple's WWDC, and xrOS 1.0 is also featured in Apple's Xcode SDK. So it can be inferred that this "visionOS" plan was actually renamed after the system itself and even the Xcode Beta version was compiled. Considering that Apple has never had such a big own incident before, I'm afraid it's too late.

▲ Tuyuan Twitter does not know the motivation for Apple to hastily change its name. CTOnews.com believes that the name change relative to "xrOS" will help improve the recognition of Apple's "Vision" brand, but it is also possible that Apple had to change its product name only because of widespread leaks before the launch.
