Pressure-Reducing Comfort Head Strap for Apple Vision Pro

I have had the opportunity to use the device for the past week and I love it. I love the attention to detail to make it look like it is part of the Vision Pro and not an add-on. Installation was very intuitive and did not require directions. I loved that Annapro added three different pads for perfect sizing.

High marks for comfort. I have prominent cheekbones and using AVP with the thickest cushion pushes on my face uncomfortably--even with downward adjustments of the solo knit band (the alternative, over-head band that the AVP comes with is flimsy and does not secure the heavy device to my head very well). I typically wear the device to watch shows and movies at night in bed, so gravity doesn’t help the situation. However, with the Annapro device, I have been able to wear the AVP for the first time with no discomfort. Well done!

This is more of an unexpected feature, but the device also gives the AVP a very sturdy “handle”. I didn't realize this was a "feature" that I wanted and I'm very pleased with this capability. It makes it so much easier to transfer the AVP out of the case and place on my head… as opposed to delicately clutching the nose bridge and top of the mask (as Apple instructs), which inevitably leads to fingerprints on the glass, or the light shield popping off. Yet another bonus.

I am very glad Annapro made this device. It addresses a major comfort gap for initial adopters of the AVP, which Annapro has demonstrated can be resolved with a simple, elegant solution.

I received my head scrap today 5/18 (ordered 5/3). The earlier units are shipping from China, so they’ll take a little longer to arrive. Don’t worry, though, they are being shipped. Anyway, the unit is fantastic and does seem to really help displace some of the weight off your face. For me, my cheeks hurt with the solo strap and I looked like I had been wearing a swim mask after watching a movie. I haven’t worn it long enough yet to really appreciate the difference, but I can feel it immediately. A large part of the weight is transferred to the forehead (in a different and more comfortable manner than the double strap). It looks great and holds in place very well. It looks like something Apple might have included in the box with the AVP. The black pads would benefit a bit from a material more like the light shield / AirPod Max uses, but I’m sure that would also drive up the price. I’m using the 10mm pad. The strap slides in place in seconds. This is definitely a keeper and I’m glad I got it. I recommend it. BTW, I also bought a similar 3D-printed unit off Etsy and it is also good, though not as professional. That unit tends to come apart and slide around a bit. This is definitely a nice design. For the price, it’s a great value and worth trying. I really like my AVP, though it’s uncomfortable to wear. This really does seem to help.

I have been using it for about an hour, and I love it! The secondary supplied 10mm pad (which feels thinner when compressed) fits my head and works seamlessly with my light seal (33W). Now the Vision Pro fits like a glove on my head with weight distributed more evenly (not just on my cheekbones like before). I love how this strap also doubles as a grip/handle for picking up the avp from a table or setting it down somewhere; it makes the unit as a whole feel much more sturdy, and I find it easier to handle than before because I can grab it safely by this strap- awesome! At $35, this is truly a great value considering how expensive all the OEM stuff is. Definitely recommending this to all my friends that have a Vision Pro :)

• Product Satisfaction: The user is highly satisfied with the AnnaPro A1 head strap, finding it comfortable and effective.
• Usage Increase: The user’s time spent in the VisionVerse increased significantly since using the AnnaPro A1.
• Request for Improvement: The user requests AnnaPro to offer the new foam pads from the A2 model as a replacement for the A1’s faux leather pads.

I've used the A1 head strap since its release. Honestly, there is nothing I've tried like it. I also test every new product (besides the new ResMed) to see if it offers any more improvements. So far, nothing has come close!

Since getting the AnnaPro A1, my time in the VisionVerse has gone up 10 times. Comfort is so ridiculously low on my complaints with AnnaPro. I've gone through 3 full battery charge and discharge cycles perfectly comfortably.

That time my husband actually woke up the next morning (binge-watching Foundation to an unhealthy amount of time lol). He found that I was still in the VisionVerse and said, "OMG, you're still wearing that darn thing?"

Which prompted him to give Guest Mode another try. Before the A1 graced us, he tried the VisionPro and had major discomfort. Since willing to try it with the A1, I find myself stuck in reality more while he enjoys the Vision Pro lol.

I've tried the A2, and for me, personally, it's nowhere near as comfortable. I spent weeks playing with pad thickness and light seal cushion thickness. The A2 just doesn't work for the shape of my head. But all I really want are the new foam pads. That's my one complaint about the A1 - the faux leather pads always look oily and require cleaning after every use.

If there was one thing, just one thing I would plead for, it's the new face/head pad material in the shape and design of the A1. I would gladly buy a whole new A1 if they weren't sold separately.

PLEASE! AnnaPro, version 2 pad material designed to the shape of version one. We, the people who pray to the AnnaPro gods, need this blessing.

This head strap is a relief for the pressure on your chest bones that you have with the normal head strap. I also like to were the Vision Pro some times without the light shield. And it works great with the ANNAPRO. The pressure isn’t gone completely with the ANNAPRO, it’s just spread on your forehead (mainly), cheek bones and the back of your head. So you can were the device for a little longer.

Great product

Nothing else to say. Does exactly what you’d imagine. lol.

The way Apple should have designed it with the cushion over the weight!!!

I have found this to be excellent at reducing the pressure on my cheeks. Although the weight is transferred to the top-front of my head, it is more comfortable this way

I can’t speak highly enough of the Annapro strap - It’s completely changed my experience with the Vision Pro and is an absolute must have with this device.
