### 2/5 — Just crashes. Wont even open now

*2020-12-03*

Used to work fairly good. Now it won’t open at all. Please update. 

Also hands free controls would be nice.

### 5/5 — Very Good App!!

*2020-08-21*

Great VR player. I’ve never had a problem with it. Easy to use.

### 2/5 — Download issues

*2020-04-18, version 2.3*

It streams fine but when downloading it would stop at some random point of the download

### 2/5 — Lacking basic features

*2019-02-19*

Desperately needs some method of hands free controls - look at a spot to bring up a progress slider / play / pause, etc. rather than needing to remove phone from headset to use controls.

On that same note, a hands free vr file browser for saved videos would be a great addition.

### 4/5 — URL not working

*2018-11-11*

Every time I go to past the url of the page it doesn’t play what url I’m I suppose to copy

### 1/5 — Orientation

*2018-10-21*

The re-center didn’t work, but ads did. Purchased but still clunky when trying to center the video. When was this updated last?

### 1/5 — Paid for full version, but still get ads

*2018-05-17*

No point to pay for full version since it doesn’t remove the ads.

### 3/5 — Gaze Controls Please

*2018-02-11, version 2.3*

2/11/18: the app is ok but it could really really use gaze controls

### 4/5 — Can’t delete videos

*2018-02-11, version 2.3*

Good

### 5/5 — Not working

*2018-01-09*

I’ve tried to play my vr headset with this app, not working, won’t even let me download the video or stream
