Imagine shelling out $3,499 for a cutting-edge gadget, only to be locked out by a forgotten passcode. Sounds dystopian, right? Welcome to the bizarre reality facing some Apple Vision Pro buyers. According to Bloomberg, forgetting your passcode on this mixed-reality headset means a forced pilgrimage to an Apple Store or mailing it to customer support. Talk about a buzzkill in the metaverse.
Here's the rub: enter the wrong code too often, and your Vision Pro takes a time-out, just like any other Apple device. However, you can't just reset your Apple Vision Pro using the same method you'd use to reset your iPhone passcode. If you still can't remember after the mandatory cool-down, Apple swoops in to reset your code. But brace yourself because this "heroic" act comes at a cost: all your precious data gets Thanos-snapped. Ouch.
