3D Gallery -
I just downloaded it and put it to good use. It is user friendly, and it doesn't take you on a wild goose chase like others easy to understand interface! What I would like to see for it is like a title and or a poster page where one can advertise the particular Art show, such as, "Maria's Art Exhibit 2017" or Maria's Best Photography 2017...you know what I mean. A title page or even banner. Maybe some virtual balloons and champagne (and hot d'oeuvres) for the opening day? Could there be a way to share the photos with Facebook? Thank you for the app, I love it!

Great App
I love this App simply for the fact that it allows to create a virtual reality gallery with great ease. I would have giving it 5 stars if it allowed to save the gallery view mode as playable video to camera roll. I hope the programmers would add this as a new feature.
Still as is, it is a great app!

What I Was (almost) Hoping For.
The extra room in the previous update was good. I'll admit the other app by this dev is hard work perambulating, though cute. And here, you get a storage hallway too.
This update adds descriptions. I was hoping for little plaques like a museum. But, ok, you'd have to perambulate badly, to read the plaques.
So, the new descriptions make sense. You just aim your view, and 'it knows!'. Good job.
Still the best 3D image viewer.

3d gallery 2
My photos are fuzzy needs an update for iOS 8.
AWESOME APP!
Since upgrading to the full version, I am truly enjoying 3D Gallery '12. It was a big hit with the children of my drawing class this summer.

Not good
Well it didn't work for me, I wasted a dollar, next.
Elegant , but...
The iPad makes a very nice environment for sharing a portfolio in gallery format. 3d Gallery'12 does a good job of providing the established white cube exhibition space, four clean walls, no undue cake decorating. Moving about the virtual gallery steering and advancing by means of your thumbs on the bottom corners of the screen is something to get used to, yet is far more intuitive than navigating on a computer. There is the option to let the processor provide a random tour of the exhibition, this is highly effective visually. 3dGallery'12's navigation interface is fairly standard for tablets, but performs better than other comparable products. Three obvious drawbacks to the interface are not unique to this app alone. 1) There is no way to walk backwards or zoom-out without turning around and walking away and to reapproach. "Approaching" and "drawing back" to view a piece of art is standard practice in the real world, but won't happen navigating within this app. 2) it's too easy for the uninitiated to stare at the ceiling and the floor, your view of the room careening around as if your neck operated without timely feedback. This benefits nobody. 3) there is no way to crouch to view the bottom of an object exhibited from a horizontal viewpoint, this is not dissimilar to the real world where a lying down or getting a ladder are the only option to view every aspect of a painting, but this should not be a problem in the digital world. Slamming into walls might be a fourth complaint for the uninitiated, Couldn't the system help you to avoid this?
One thing 3dGallery'12 does well, that many other tablet, Internet based and desktop based gallery systems don't do, is allow you to place flat art anywhere on the wall, stacking art up down and around, anywhere there is wall space. Great feature!
I love this app, but it's pretty useless in the end. After all is said and done, a gallery is for viewing. Why bother setting up a show if no one can see it?
3dGallery'12 offers no way to export or email this 3d gallery, no way whatsoever. There are standard 3d formats out there, why not export? Why not provide the ability to export (submit) to the app store so that people could purchase your gallery exhibition as an app in itself, which could be updated regularly? This would be a perfect solution.
This app is a visualisation tool. Use it to visualise what your digital artwork would look like printed and hung in the real world, as if your digital artworks were art objects. This is helpful in determining what art work works together for best effect, how to arrange it for best effect, and to determine what sort of sizes your work should be printed at for best effect. However there are no tools for determining real world measures, no data or notation systems set up in 3dgallery'12 that would be particularly useful in making your visualisation a reality.
Conclusion
The biggest downside of this app is glaringly obvious to all who have purchased it, what is the point of setting up a show if you can't show it, or share it? The gallery remains entrapped on the iPad. So you must share your own iPad to share your gallery, which restricts the purpose of the app to the smallest possible potential. To use this in a safe kiosk style environment won't work either as the viewer has access to the edit mode.
Finally , if I hand my iPad to someone, so they can view the exhibition I have created, the viewer should be able to navigate instantly without learning curve. The viewer interface is good compared to the alternatives, but should be better.
If no export abilities or public viewing are provided, then this app should be designed and marketed as a visualisation tool, but this app does not seem to be intended as a visualisation tool either.
Was it intended as a toy?
Despite its lack of export, access and view-ability, Despite its uselessness as a gallery, I still like it. This app makes for a unique visualisation tool and like most apps it don't cost much.

Nice
I will still give you five stars for this app because it is want I was looking for but one thing it's still the same as the free one. You can have your pay for this beautiful job add more please.
3D Gallery '12
Very disappointing...you cannot move freely from one gallery to another plus there is only one gallery design. So after time consumingly creating 3 - 4 galleries the experience gets very boring indeed. The earlier version of 3D Gallery is far more interesting and much cheaper. The so called 'visitors' are static so not much fun there either. Don't waste your money on what is unfortunately an expensive flop.

Updated to 100 galleries.
That's right- 100 galleries that accept about 20 pictures each. Great app to show to friends etc.. No variety in galleries tho. 100 rectangular gallery rooms. Snapped it up when it was only 69p ! Well chuffed.
