App display glitched beyond use on iPhone XR, &/or latest iOS
TL:DR version: It doesn’t work anymore. Frankly I’m surprised it even opens– after that, totally unusable on anything close to new.
Several years without updates have apparently caused the app’s interface display coding to fall too far behind iOS &/or devices; it is rendered useless by incompatibility.
At first I thought the frantic maelstrom onscreen was intentional– demonstrating the descent into blindness. I’d never heard of it being experienced as 100s of dots wildly spinning/swirling/streaking around randomly; the “back to menu” button was doing the same; and there was no way to interact bc touching screen anywhere took me back to the table of contents, so I eventually figured out that it just doesn’t work display-wise. The audio is fine, and until you enter a chapter screen is stable. After that, no way to do anything except back and forth with TOC. Can’t even return to actual main menu. Tried the cardboard VR view and it does the same thing: completely chaotic swirling dots and back to TOC button swirling & flicking around also. It never resolves into any sort of discernible image like the preview pics, and when it instructs you to do something like tap a part of the screen or look at an object, you can’t do either.
It’s really too bad; this seems fascinating and I’d love tp experience it as it’s supposed to be, but years without updates while iOS & devices changed significantly have apparently rendered the app completely unusable. Such a shame.

Does not load
The app does not load when opened on iPhone 7 with the latest software update. Can you fix it? Thank you!
Beautiful
I don’t own a vr headset, and I haven’t made a cardboard one, but in a dark room you don’t need one, and I had my brightness low kind of felt like I was blind, but that just added to the experience. The fact that it uses a real persons life and recordings is really interesting. It’s short but sweet.

Non carica
Il gioco non carica si blocca alla schermata iniziale potete risolvere perché sembra bello update provato su telefono e non funziona neanche qui vi prego risolvete questo problema perche ci voglio giocare è assurdo che avete fatto un sólo update sembrava che a queste esperienze anche in vr più non vr pensavate che ci sarebbero stati pochi problemi che avete fatto pochissimi update siamo seri però comunque magari giocare a sens vr mi è bastato peccato veramente avrei potuto vedere altre cose folli come in sens vr ma comunque spero in un altro vostro progetto però se volete fare un altra esperienza vr per non lasciare il lavoro fate più cose folli e fate più update comunque Keep going

No arranca
En un iPhone 8 Plus no pasa de la pantalla de presentación. No se carga. No gasten su dinero. Esto es un ROBO a mano armada en toda regla.
Not working
It doesn’t work
Wundervoll!!!
Das war ein wundervolles Erlebnis in John‘s Welt eintreten zu können. Tolle App mit viel Gefühl und Liebe gestaltet! So betrachtet man das alles durch einen etwas anderen, intensiveren Blickwinkel. Vielen Dank für diese tolle Geschichte mit toller Aufmachung.
Une expérience immersive!
L’application offre une expérience immersive passionnante à voir et à écouter. A noter cependant qu’elle n’est entièrement compatible qu’avec des lecteurs VR Cardboard.
Sound doesn’t work on headphones
No matter what pair of headphones I used no sound
Excellent !!!
C'est une expérience très enrichissante et poétique ...
No me funciona
No pasa de la pantalla inicial de carga en mi iphone 6s
No cargó
Se queda en loading mil años.... nunca pude jugar 🤭
Schade
Ab dem zweiten Kapitel wird es unmöglich weiterzukommen, da man auf den Touchscreen tippen muss, um Wind zu erzeugen. Wenn man aber das Handy in der VR-Brille eingespannt hat, kann man das leider nicht ausführen...Sehr schade, da das erste Kapitel super schön gestaltet ist und man eigentlich unbedingt weitersehen möchte.

Amazing insight into something we can't comprehend.
Based on the recordings of John Hull, Notes on Blindness is an experience everyone needs to see (no pun intended).
An insight into the world of the sightless, and as close as likely possible to put yourself in their shoes.
The technology is far ahead of its time, using 3D VR (or just normal viewing) with amazing use of the iPhone's sensors to place the image and spacial auditory sound just where they should be.
Understated, yet revolutionary. Try it!
