In 2022, Mark Gurman claimed that the xrOS was originally called "realityOS."
Apple allegedly decided to use the name xrOS, which stands for "extended reality" operating system, since the gadget maker wants to cover both virtual and augmented reality.
xrOS Features, Other Details
Toms's Guide reported that the upcoming xrOS could have an interface similar to iOS.
Gurman claimed that this new mixed-reality operating system will have a main interface that is completely identical to iPhone and iPad.
