アップデートを

未だ愛用してるのですが、どうしても画質が劣化してしまうのが難点。
あと、長年アップデートされてないアプリですが、今後のiOSアプデで使えなくなってしまうのではないか心配です。

How’s it close to perfect?

First 5 seconds I’m hit with a confusing tutorial that makes me think I’m not going to know how to use the app. Then it only lets you choose through your camera roll for my videos? Is it 2010? Where are my files? We have files on our phones. Not just stupid videos and pictures

Viable cardboard browser

Possibly the only functional SBS browser-enabled app remaining in the App Store. Thanks for continuing to support this format.
