Like the idea

Interesting AR implementation for learning, but I’d like to see caption/subtitle options and more paintings.

No more updates?

So no more updates for the past 2 years, and stopped at 3 paintings in total?

Works well, but not ideal for iPad Pro

Using the 2020 11” pro. The app works pretty well, but isn’t ideal for the screen dimensions. You get big black bars on both sides of the display, so that sorta detracts from the experience
