Vision Pro ImageViewerNAS photo viewer

Your NAS photos, on the biggest screen you own.

Want a simple image viewer on Vision Pro for your NAS drive? Select a whole folder from your network share, then swipe through it, big and sharp. No import, no sync, no library to manage.

Coming soon to the App Store visionOS 26

SMB / NAS support

Reads straight from your network share

Connect your NAS once in the Files app. After that, Vision Pro ImageViewer opens photos directly from the share. Nothing is copied to the headset and nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Photos next to the one you're looking at are loaded in the background. Keep swiping in one direction and it reads further ahead, so the next image is usually ready before you get there.

Hand gestures

Swipe to change photos

Pinch anywhere on the picture and flick left or right. The whole image is one swipe surface, so it works wherever your eyes happen to rest. A drag of about 60 points counts as a swipe; anything shorter is ignored, so a small hand movement won't skip a photo.

  • Look at a thumbnail and pinch to jump straight to it.
  • The arrows under the filmstrip step one photo at a time.
  • Swiping past the last photo wraps back to the first.
Drag the photo left or right

The bar fills as you drag. Let go once it's full and the photo changes, the same threshold the app uses.

Every format Apple can decode

Vision Pro ImageViewer asks the system which formats it can read, rather than keeping its own list.

Big files open fast

Large images are scaled down as they're decoded, to at most 4096 pixels on the long edge, so a 50-megapixel RAW opens without a wait.

Private by design

No account, no tracking, no analytics, no ads. The app reads only the photos you choose, and forgets them when you close the window.
