Toggle the "Spatial Video for Apple Vision Pro" option in the Settings app to enable the capability.

"With Apple Vision Pro, record spatial video with amazing depth for viewing in the Photos app. When recording, keep the iPhone steady and in landscape mode for optimal results. 30 frames per second in 1080p is captured. Approximately 130 MB make up one minute of spatial video," according to Apple.

Activating the toggle will reveal a new “Spatial” option in the “Video” interface of the Camera app, which is part of the recently released spatial video feature in iOS 17.2 beta 2 for iPhone 15 Pro.

It is anticipated that Vision Pro would launch in "early 2024," allowing users to see these three-dimensional films on an AR/VR headset. Also, users will be able to easily record their own spatial films using the Vision Pro headset when it launches in the next year.
