Convert photos to side-by-side 3D for Vision Pro — and learn when the native spatial format (MV-HEVC) is the better pick.
visionOS plays SBS in any viewer app, and shows true spatial photos in the Photos app. SBS works with stills you already have.
Safari on visionOS runs WebGPU — the whole conversion happens on the headset.
The same file plays on Quest, Pico and 3D TVs — one conversion covers all your devices.
Our mp4 carries a stereo (side-by-side) tag and a 1:1 pixel aspect, and the file name contains SBS_3D. Players that read the tag switch on their own; for the rest, one selection does it. Firmware versions differ — if yours behaves differently, tell us and we will add it here.

| Player | Detects 3D | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Files app | Select it once | Plays the mp4 as a flat wide video — useful for checking the picture, not for 3D. |
| Third-party 3D players | Select it once | Pick one with an SBS mode and choose it once; visionOS has no system-wide switch. |
