I cannot find a mention of this, so sorry if this has been asked before and I missed it. Has DEVONtechnoloigies mentioned if DTTG will be enabled for use on the Vision Pro?
Thank you

What would be your vision on what using that device with DEVONthink ToGo (or DEVONthink) would be like for the user? Why something of interest and value? What would user do and benefit from?

We have not tested DEVONthink To Go on Vision Pro and, as our development is based in Europe, we wonât get our hands on it very soon. However, we will not opt out of the installation on a Vision Pro in case you should have one. We might revise this decision should reports from users come in that suggest otherwise.

Good to hear, thank you. I am not sure I really have a use case for it, but I will be trying it.
I am really curious whether this thing could make it possible to work from my couch (writing, communicating and meeting with people, researching and teaching). At the moment, I cannot imagine how the typing could work well. I will try to get my hands on this gadget. Wonât be long for the first reviews.

Speaking as someone who was working in the TV editing field when Minority Report came out and every forum was filled with people wishing for that âwaving hands in the airâ thing that they did, I am sceptical about doing too much long session work with your arms held up in front of you on visual keyboards or swiping things in mid-air, no matter how cool that might be.
I remember the concept of gorilla arms(link) was brought up in reference to what happens when you hold your arms out like that for a long time.
I am sure thereâs a solution sitting in some brain somewhere but I am not holding out hope for doing tons of work in a virtual environment on documents and notes.

At $3500 US, those reviews wonât be from normal everyday people.

I wonder how the other passengers will react when you wear your Vision Pro on the bus and wildly snap with your fingers at for other people invisible objects (Sorry, couldnât resist)

As well as all the new neck and arm pain we will be creating for ourselves, I see little mention of the problem of vision and headaches. I suspect partly because women experience headaches twice as frequently as men, so itâs perhaps not on tech minds as much. But eye problems are pretty much universal and almost half the world now needs some kind of vision correction (itâs actually a weird pandemic where human vision is declining, but thatâs a separate topic).
Anyway back to my point, just thinking about using the Vision Pro gives me a headache 
I already have to be careful with my screens to avoid headaches, and using those âgogglesâ for prolonged periods seems like a recipe for headaches, floating spots and poor vision. (I would also query how comfortable the goggles can actually be for multi-hour use.)

Speaking for myself (obvi), as someone who is considering the Vision Pro but hasnât pulled the trigger. My understanding is that when pairing with the MBP there can only be one virtual screen due to wireless bandwidth limitations. If either DTTG or DT are Vision Pro apps â even if DTTG is just an âenabledâ iPad app â then they could be in their own window and thus not taking up screen real estate in the desktop window.
At least, thatâs how I think it would work; if someone actually has one in hand it would be nice to have confirmation.
Iâm not interested in getting one (nowâŚ) but I saw some of the videos by Apple and some reviewers. My impression is that pointing is done with the eyes and the equivalent of âclickingâ is done with a gesture with your fingers. The latter is detected optically and they stressed that camera has a wide enough view that it will work with your hands in your lap. I have no idea how reliable and accurate the eye tracking is, though.
