Existing music streaming apps often fall short in delivering an immersive and engaging music listening experience, especially within the context of virtual reality (VR). Users desire a seamless integration of music streaming within their VR environments, allowing them to effortlessly control their music, explore playlists, and visualize the music in a captivating and interactive manner.

The absence of an intuitive and visually appealing VR-optimized music streaming app for popular platforms like Spotify creates a significant gap in the market. Addressing this gap by designing a user-centric VR music streaming app tailored for the Apple Vision Pro VR headset is essential to revolutionize how users interact with music and enhance their overall music streaming experience in the VR
