We've made improvements to our Vision Pro app, and AVP Remote Control app for iPhone and iPad, to make guiding viewers of your Jigs entirely hands free, and improve managing multiple AVP devices in training rooms or trade shows.

Both apps require updating via AppStore links below to use these features:

You can now replace any 3D model in-place while preserving its full setup, making iteration faster and letting you swap placeholder models without redoing work.

For example, if you've made a Jig with 10 steps and several models, and you need to swap a 3D model out for an updated one.The replace model feature will apply the same position, rotation, and scale properties to the replacement model so you don't need to format and transform the model again.

Generate photorealistic thumbnails for your Jigs based on your content as well as your Jig name and description.

We have a huge update to materials and textures in JigSpace.

You can now have different materials or textures on objects from one step to another. For example switch exterior parts of a machine from metal to X-ray to show its inner parts, or display different images and videos on each step in the same UI.

This capability should give you much more creative flexibility without needing to duplicate meshes and bloating your Jigs size.

You can now add and edit custom textures at the mesh level, in addition to a whole 3D model. This works better with upstream 3D design tools like Blender, 3DS Max, and Maya and supports importing packed textures with 3D models. It should make it much easier to edit small textures on smaller sections of your models instead of having to edit the whole model's texture.

Combined with changing textures per step means you can show more details like product screens changing based on operations, power gauge readings, or video footage as just a few examples.

Embedded textures in FBX, USDZ, and GLB/GLTF files are now automatically applied to your 3D models when you load them into JigSpace. This means you can design and edit textures in your preferred 3D design tools and import them fully into JigSpace at the same time as your import your 3D models. Textured 3D models from photogrammetry tools like Polycam or 3D model marketplaces like Sketchfab, or generative AI tools like Meshy.ai will now import fully with their textures.

We also import PBR materials settings with supported models, including STEP and SolidWorks, to save you time re-adjusting transparency, metallic, roughness, or occlusion settings in JigSpace.

MacOS and Windows desktop apps now update automatically, so you don't need to manually download the Jig app from our website each time we update the app. If you have any problems with the new Windows installer file, read our guide to installing the desktop app.

Automatic updates of Apple Vision Pro, iPad, and iPhone apps continue to operate via the AppStore as normal.

We've made various improvements under the hood to speed up day-to-day performance of the JigSpace apps. The desktop apps are now over 200mb smaller in download size, and should be noticeably quicker in actions like creating, deleting, and loading Jigs.

Analytics reporting on your Jigs is now accessed exclusively via the web-based admin dashboard

Finally we've also decommissioned some old features that had reached their end of life:

Support for 3D models in your presentations with materials and textures per step and per mesh in an upcoming Jig format upgrade. You can make Jigs or edit existing ones to have these features soon in an upcoming release to the JigSpace app for Windows, Mac, iPad, and iPhone.

Sometimes custom branding appeared inconsistently when loading a Jig.

We now support for visionOS 26 which is out of beta today. Please update your device OS before updating JigSpace to this version for best results.

We now support SharePlay with nearby participants: View Jigs together in person and collaborate without having to use FaceTime or use personas.

The shared presentation experience is now simpler:

Download on iPhone/iPad: Jig AVP Remote at the AppStore‍

The new Jig AVP Remote enables seamless control of immersive 3D presentations on Apple Vision Pro directly from your iPhone or iPad, solving the challenge of guiding first-time spatial computing users through complex product demonstrations.

you will be able to:

Remote control support: Your spatial presentations can now be controlled remotely using the new Jig AVP Remote app on iPhone or iPad.

Use your iPhone or iPad to guide Apple Vision Pro users through immersive guided tours, augmented reality trade shows demonstrations, and spatial training content with JigSpace.

Remote app can select Jigs to launch from JigSpace on your Apple Vision Pro, place Jigs on image trackers, progress through presentation steps, and control presentation settings.

Pair your Apple Vision Pro with your iPhone or iPad using secure connection codes, then reconnect anytime with one tap.

Enterprises with EU Data Residency can now view their Jigs on Apple Vision Pro.

Select EU or US Data Residency in the main settings menu, then login to view your Jigs.

We've made many performance improvements to the JigSpace app for creators and new users to ensure a faster experience.

We've made speed improvements across a range of areas in our core creator tools:

With snap to floor, you can now place any object directly on the ground with a single click or keyboard shortcut. This is a very common workflow when editing Jigs to appear in augmented reality or immersive spatial modes in Apple Vision Pro.

Learn more about the new snapping tools.

‍

Enterprise customers who opt for EU Data Residency can now log in and edit their own content in the latest version of JigSpace apps.

If you are a desktop app user on Windows and Mac you can now save your Jigs for offline viewing, for when WIFI is unavailable or your have a poor connection.

To save a Jig for offline viewing:

Logging into a JigSpace account in older versions of the visionOS app will not longer work after this update. We recommend updating the JigSpace app for Apple Vision Pro as soon as possible.
