This new app brings Netflix and Prime Video in 4K with Dolby Atmos to Apple’s Vision Pro

One of the most popular uses for Apple’s Vision Pro headset is to enjoy movies and TV shows on its enormous virtual screen, but not all streamers are on board. Netflix in particular caused some disappointment when it said it had no plans to make a native Vision Pro app for its service. 

Not to worry. Independent developer Christian Privitelli has stepped in to deliver what some streamers won’t. His app, Supercut, lets you stream Netflix and Prime Video, and is designed specifically for Apple’s virtual viewer.

The app works much like Apple’s own TV Plus app, but instead of Apple content it offers Netflix and Prime Video without the letterboxing you get when viewing shows and movies from the headset’s web browser. It’s not packed with gimmicks and doesn’t have the pleasant virtual theater of the Disney Plus app, but it’s cheap and effective, and that’s good enough for me.

What Redditors are saying about Supercut for Vision Pro

If you want to know the ups and downs of any AV app, Reddit’s always a good place to look – and the reaction to Supercut in r/visionpro has been positive, no doubt partly because Privitelli, the developer, has been cheerfully chatting with the other redditors in the subreddit and talking about what the app can do, can’t do and what he hopes to do next. Future versions are likely to include some virtual viewing environments too.

At just $4.99 for the app – roughly 1/700th of the cost of your Vision Pro – it’s extremely affordable, and that means you’ll happily forgive its shortcomings – such as the fairly basic Prime Video implementation. It delivers 4K, Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision if your Netflix subscription includes them, and it supports multiple profiles for easy account switching. It’ll also tell you what resolution you’re getting and whether Dolby Atmos or Dolby Vision are happening.

Supercut is available now in the App Store.
