I got the book for a nephew and we were excited for the AR. The app works on only a few of the newest and updated phones. Once you do have the right phone… the app is pointless. Spine, front and back work… but the story is more an advertisement for the book you’ll read and not new info. Once we tried to use the app inside the book there was no way to get the AR to trigger. The camera was not focusing and it was disappointing waste of time to try and trigger the AR. The audiorays are also pointless since they do not work at all. Hopefully the book is better than the AR app… ### 1/5 — Practically useless unless in a laboratory setting *2022-01-02, version 1.1.11* This app is utterly useless in most of not all lighting situations that the developer didn’t use when compiling this trashy code. Unable to force focus is my guess on why this app fails to deliver. Such potential wasted. ### 1/5 — Barely Works *2021-06-28, version 1.1.11* Have only had success scanning 2 recommended pages, the camera refuses to focus or recognize enough to scan. “Audioarys” don’t work at all, neither do the book trailers. Bought the book BECAUSE of the AR aspect. Very disappointing. Will change review if/when fixed. ### 1/5 — Broken app doesn’t work *2021-05-02, version 1.1.11* All of the previous reviews stating that the app is underwhelming or is flawed are very accurate. This app looks good but doesn’t show anything on the pages due to poor camera integration. Don’t use. ### 2/5 — Meh. *2021-04-23, version 1.1.11* When the app works, it’s beautiful. But that’s very rare. It takes forever to get anything to load and the camera NEVER focuses. It doesn’t matter what lighting or phone you use. Really needs some upgrades for this to work better and seamlessly. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2021-04-14, version 1.1.10* I’m still excited to read and it’s a beautiful book, but I was so excited about the AR aspect only to not have it work or really hard to trigger. Tried soo many positions, light variances, phones. It’s like the app won’t let the camera focus. I still haven’t seen what happens with the barcode and such ### 2/5 — If only it worked *2021-04-13, version 1.1.10* The only ones that work are the spine, sleeve, and book front. I tried different lighting, wait times, and camera adjustments for the others to no avail. Super disappointed. From reading the positive reviews, it seems that I’m missing out. Wish it worked. ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work. *2021-04-12, version 1.1.10* I love the idea of this app, and I was able to get a few of the pages from the list to scan…. But most wouldn’t. The camera won’t focus, so it won’t pick up on the barcode, page 213, or a few of the other options. Hopefully an update comes soon and the app can be used as intended. Great idea, poor execution. ### 1/5 — Doesnt really work *2021-03-31, version 1.1.10* Unfortunately the app doesn’t work at all… at least not for me :( the image is not focused so the features aren’t popping up :( ### 2/5 — Worked great before I got my book *2021-03-20, version 1.1.10* Audio files no longer work so that’s pretty frustrating. Now I have the book but can’t use the app as it’s intended. ## Frequently asked questions about The Octunnumi AR ### What is The Octunnumi AR?
