User reviews

Meant for controllers

Whilst it is lovely to see David Attenborough, unfortunately this application was designed for a different platform in mind, with controllers, and it shows. The hand interactions are not ideal.

Additionally, the graphics quality is dated. Whilst the volumetric recording of Attenborough is impressive, its resolution is low, and the edges are fuzzy against the background.

Wanted to like this

I definitely feel cheated out of my $15. The experience is very glitchy and there is not much to do while sitting at a desk with David Attenborough.

Rich immersion, clever storytelling

This app shines on Vision Pro. The developer utilizes the best of software and hardware, not only to deliver a technically superior app but also allow for the experience to remain intuitive and compelling. The technology becomes secondary to the content in a magical way. The attention to aesthetic detail and careful planning of the experience elevate this app to showcase-quality for Vision Pro, in my view.

Exceptional!

This is an example of what I was hoping for when I bought the AVP. It expertly utilizes all the strengths of the vision pro

One of my favorite vision experiences so far

Easily one of the best experiences I’ve had with an educational app by far. Really want more experiences like this!
