I have a problem when I click the VR Headset in a phone screen. Like when I put it on, it just shows a black screen with a line in the middle and a settings icon. Is this a bug? ### 5/5 — Learning *2019-09-29, version 1.1* It’s took a little bit to learn how to use it. I would like a better set of instructions. It is still neat to use and enjoyable to have something different to see photos and videos with. ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2019-08-05, version 1.1* I just got a VR headset and wanted to try it out so I downloaded this app from the Apple App Store and installed it on my iPhone. It was quick and easy and works very well. It is fun going through all the available content available through the app. A very easy to use and easy to understand app. ### 4/5 — It’s okay! *2019-07-20, version 1.1* I say it’s okay because when I first got the app I thought I can just get started and play the movies and musics but I had to rate to get freely things but now I love it. It works properly now so thanks to the rating!.i got my freely vr videos but I just tried it and I didn’t get them at all but the stars can stay ### 5/5 — Very solid app *2019-07-06, version 1.1* Very good app. I like how you can play pretty much all the songs and listen to them freely. Thanks to the app creators for the concert songs too. I like the concert songs because it makes me feel like I’m actually there. ### 5/5 — It makes you give a five star rating *2019-07-02, version 1.1* I have to give this five stars because, the app MAKES YOU , if you don’t you can’t watch or play any videos, Games, storytelling etc. I’m barely starting to play this app but I had to give a five star rating to do anything, so if I were you I’d try this app out but I’m not saying it’s great. ### 5/5 — Just play the movie *2019-04-14, version 1.1* Just play the movie it doesn’t take out heart I wanna say thank you the Alala Lala and all that junk so I have another review and I’m is it gonna keep saying random stuff voice chatting in a tennis stuff and all you need to know is I’m Batman cancer is bad and I will fight for you ### 5/5 — Very great app! *2019-04-06, version 1.1* I just opened this app and it works beautifully. I can’t wait to see what the videos look like in my headset, but I can tell it will be good. The only thing I would suggest for this app is the ability to search for videos. Other than that, bravo! ### 4/5 — Good app! *2019-03-02, version 1.1* This app is really fun but the only reason I gave it only four stars was because you can’t search for anything and you have to look through everything to see if what you want is in that category any way besides that I think this is a great app!👍 ### 5/5 — Pros vs Cons *2019-02-10, version 1.1* Hi, I just got this app a few minutes ago and so far it’s been enjoyable. The Pro is how you can watch videos even though your on a VR headset. But the(Cons)down side is that you can not look around or like explore the area like other VR apps have. Also a con is that I have to give you guys (or gals)a 5 star rating so I can get more videos!So those are my pros vs cons of your app but at the end I give it 5 stars. ### 5/5 — Its free, has bugs but it’s great *2019-01-19, version 1.1* What can you expect. They’re providing free content it won’t be perfect. But for what it is as an entry level app into the VR world it’s amazing. I can’t see anyone being disappointed by it. Don’t like it? Go ahead and pay for other VR apps then otherwise I love it. ### 5/5 — Only for the free service *2018-12-04, version 1.1* I didn’t have an a option to pay or not when I looked at it all it said was get as an option to download no price or anything then u get charged! Then on top of that it seems to not work really at all then they tell you to rate it five stars and you’ll get free upgrade?! BS!!!... a lot of people are getting screwed I can tell you that!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I hate this *2023-02-02, version 1.1* I don’t want to give a star to this app because when I saw it I thought it would be fun to watch the vids and when I saw the reviews all of them said they were perfect but when I opened the app I saw no movies and every time I would movie or go to the settings it would give me a AD and I couldn’t do anything there all I saw was blank white screen I thought it would be perfect that it was free but it showed nothing. ### 1/5 — Nothing happens… *2022-01-22, version 1.1* I got this app thinking it was going to be fun and take away my boredom…I was wrong…if anything it made me more mad bc i open it up and what do I see you might ask? Nothing… a blank screen is in front of me. I wait for a couple minutes and then! Nothing happens… it’s still a blank white screen I looked threw reviews to see if that’s a problem for other ppl and it isn’t so I must be lucky… so yeah this game is quit boring and useless ### 1/5 — Horrible *2020-02-19, version 1.1* This app was my first VR experience. Received my Google Cardboard, download this app, sitting back in my recliner and “Unsupported URL”. That’s strange. Try another video. “ Unsupported URL”. Same response on the next 5 videos. I’m using the iPhone X and iOS 13.3.1 so no issues there. And to add salt to an open wound, there’s a pop up “ free upgrade. Please give us 5 star review and you’ll get all features freely. Thank you!” Well I guess I’m not getting anything “freely” for this 1-star review. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2020-02-09, version 1.1* I just downloaded this and the app literally doesn’t work!! I tried to find something that could be fun and easy, but none of the videos work. I can see some five star ratings and they all say that they give that rating because the app tells you to. I checked, and it does you have to give it that rating in order to watch some of the videos I couldn’t use it anyway. It’s honestly a waste of my time and I regret installing it in the first place. ### 1/5 — Absurd App *2020-02-08, version 1.1* Had the app for several days & haven’t seen a single video using this app! Either get a “URL not supported” error message or an infinitely spinning “loading” wheel. Waited 10 minutes several times but videos never load or play - tried at least 10 different videos/categories but none worked! I have a solid high speed internet connection so that isn’t the problem. ### 1/5 — Uninstalling Immediately *2019-12-01, version 1.1* Downloaded this app thinking it would be simple to use & have some interesting content. It sure looks that way from the App Store. Quick & easy install but that seems to be the only positive part about this app. It doesn’t play any videos on my device then every time I exit or back out from a video, I get an ad no matter how long I let the video ^try^ to load. Then, after trying to (unsuccessfully) watch a few clips, whenever I try to open another video, I get a pop up saying I am welcome to view other videos after I leave a 5 star review. Keep your videos as well as your app. ### 1/5 — Not VR! *2019-02-12, version 1.1* Ok so I saw the reviews and wanted to try this game out soo ya I downloaded it and at first I didn’t know how to use this app by the second video I had figured it out so I pressed the button and well the only thing u could do was a full turn but when you turn to the back it’s not realistic. So after about 4 minutes on this game i deleted it, and I would give this 0 stars but in order to review it you have to rate it. All in all this is a horrible game and would not buy or get this. ### 1/5 — Ads, Ads and Videos don’t work *2018-12-03, version 1.1* VR feature does not work on iPhone 6. The screen is just black. Also half the videos have an error and will not play. I downloaded this app to try my VR headset and after 30 minutes of trying to watch a video that worked I saw 1 video that worked and 15 ads that popped itself in my vision in between each session. The ads are not skippable the first 5 seconds so while I was trying to configure my VR settings I was forced to watch a girl talk about her car for 10+ diff instances. As I was trying another video the app told me to review their app before I could watch another video. Came hoping for a cool VR experience, managed to watch 1 video and a dozen ads, left with 30 minutes of wasted time. Crap ap. ### 2/5 — A number of good videos, but many don't work *2017-10-01, version 1.0* It's really unfortunate because this app is a great idea, and the movement tracking works great and everything, but many of the videos in their catalogue don't work at all. To add insult to injury, an ad pops up any time you close out of a video, whether or not you were actually able to watch it. And the videos that you can actually watch are all in pretty sub-par visual quality. That, and the fact that they force you to write a review to even watch any videos (they tell you it needs to be 5 stars; it doesn't), makes this app a pretty annoying experience. Would not recommend. ### 3/5 — meh *2019-11-07, version 1.1* Pros: simple to use, quick/ez setup with a cheap Cardboard viewer. Basically a serviceable tech demo, which is about what I was expecting. It works. Cons: All of the reviews are basically incentivized by a content unlock (“free upgrade”) right after the first impression, so... not very trustworthy. For what is essentially a content aggregator app, it’s pretty shallow, hard to navigate, and poorly organized. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wow *2022-10-31, version 1.1* Greatest app and Mom JK this is the worst app ever I can’t watch any videos unless I write a five star review so this is the best app ever it should deserve all five stars and this should be on the number one top up truck right now ### 5/5 — Forces reviews *2022-05-12, version 1.1* considering u can’t go and explore like walk around on ur own this has been pretty enjoyable. i do have to rate it a 5 star to watch more videos but i could careless ### 5/5 — Not working *2020-12-12, version 1.1* I haven’t started watching any because when I click at the bottom where is says be videos it shows a blank screen. And I gave it 5 stars because all the reviews said to ### 5/5 — Help Please *2020-10-09, version 1.1* Hello I just got the app and everything seems to work fine but when I open the app I pressed the VR videos button and it was white if someone can help please do thanks ### 5/5 — Umm Problem!? *2020-07-12, version 1.1* I have only had this app for a few minutes but I can’t watch any videos. The screen that is supposed to be where you can click on a video, is blank ### 5/5 — Wow *2020-03-29, version 1.1* Great game and very addicting once you actually get to download the app. I ran through it a few times a day and I can honestly say that this game is amazing. I’m willing to do a greatly written review for the sake of seeing all the features of this app before I either decide to keep it or delete it ### 5/5 — Really No Point. *2020-02-17, version 1.1* I just got this app a few minutes ago and the app is not working at all. Every time I try to click a video it says unsupported URL. Now I don’t know what that means but it says that every time. Am I missing something? ### 5/5 — Great *2020-01-01, version 1.1* So I had to give this a rating to unlock other videos. But this is truly a 5 star rating. It’s a great app and I love it. The only bad thing is when an ad pops up out of nowhere and interrupts your doing. But this app is better than most of the other ones I tried. So thanks for reading. ### 5/5 — Give me give this app a five star rating *2019-12-26, version 1.1* When I found this app thought it would be great but when I opened it I was not able to watch the videos and it said give it a five star review to unlock all the videos ### 5/5 — Awesome *2019-12-26, version 1.1* I have had this and it has been really awesome and fun for my kids. The experience has been a grateful thing. I wish it had more options, but other than that ( which isn’t a big deal) I strongly recommend this for yourself or and the kids. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
