There isn’t now, nor was there ever, a variety of applications to use this with. The concept is phenomenal; However the delivery falls flat on it’s face. C’mon Google… all those billions and you can’t appropriate a panel to develop apps here for those less fortunate?

Off center FOV Most VR apps I use are set up right, but this one leaves a good portion of the right part of the screen black, and off centers the visor, so it is off center by a huge margin, and the right lens is cut off by the black bar on the right. […]

Free VR, this is a great jumping off experience. I was lucky enough to be given a cardboard viewer (with a QR code) at a convention and with it I could show friend and relatives. Even the more timid can have a go as they can pull the viewer away at any given moment, something […]

Cannot set up my vr glasses. I don’t have the code. I had to spend a hour hunting online for the no button QR code. But somehow the app had one eye looking forward one eye at 90%. Useless, but I couldn’t reset to normal cardboard vr without reinstalling! I appreciate they want to make […]

Very useful for the calibration of the 3d engine and for the automatic correction of the lens parameters so you are able to the recieve the consistent experience every time with all different headsets etc. But when I am scan my 3D VR lenses box label I just always can se the type of my […]

‼️Urgent… I need help Asap. This is a gift for my daughters birthday tomorrow, which I need to give to her tonight… Im trying to set it up before hand but… If i look through my viewer it says I must press a button on the viewer itself on the right corner of my viewer […]

Opening the app is cool, but the app should have a built in games, it doesn’t have to be rec room or roblox. The games can be your company games, from hide and seek to tag. All I can do is watch videos saved to my phone or look at photos, even then the exhibits […]

Google as per usual investing in cool things just to drop them a few years later in the search of the next best thing. Realised that not only be street view is gone but also the actually cardboard camera app. I still have it on my phone but wanted to show to someone else who […]

After installing and while using my phone had brown lines across the screen and a faded screen which was what i would see when using vr also. Would have to turn off then turn back on for it to go away. Deleted the app. However it continued to happen from time to time even after […]

If it were to be updated for larger screens (Pixel 4 XL) it’d be perfect. As is, if I don’t select a viewer, everything is fine. When I scan a QR code for a viewer (even one I meticulously calibrated) it shoves the lens to the right, with the centerline cut through the left lens. […]

I would have given a previous version of this app 5 stars, but the current version has removed the VR version of Google Earth. I have not had the opportunity to travel very much, so exploring the 3D models in VR through Google Earth was a fun activity for me. But without any warning or […]

Pointless Like many people I have found the latest version of the app to be pretty useless. A few years ago I had this app for taking panoramic pictures to send to my son in Japan, he also had a cardboard viewer. But the new version doesn’t have any way of taking pictures or even […]

It doesn’t really do anything. You can get all the vr apps from the play store. It doesn’t access any app except Google Expeditions, also available on the play store. 360 videos is just a youtube link. It may be convenient as a link app, but since it won’t transfer to the SD card, it’s […]

Two stars for a fun idea and making a successful connection, but it just doesn’t pass my bluetooth keyboard through and without that it is pointless. My keyboard works fine everywhere else. Also, the display for the left eye is larger than that for the right and both are shifted from where they are in […]

Yeah I’ve been constantly sending messages to you guys through your app through other means and there’s still no information. So right now I’m just sick and tired of not being responded like getting any email back about anything. I’m very disappointed in your app. Your app does not have the website up to date […]

It is good for people who use the cardboard br headsets. I know it is not meant for people who dont use it but I would still like to. My headset does not have the button on the top right where I can click on the screen on my phone. I would like to use […]

this was an amazing app! but since I updated my phone to a Samsung S25, this app is no longer supported on this new phone. So while you can still view the old pictures you took, you can no longer record new ones. Very disappointing, as this is the only one I know of that […]

Add an option to bind buttons. Instead of tapping the screen, it would be nice to press the volume button, or a button on a headset. I’d also expect a setting to adjust the size of the screens. Small VR sets don’t work as well on large phones, and phones with 2:1 screen ratios. Also, […]

I’m still waiting for my “Eureka moment”… and waiting and waiting. If you’re having trouble falling asleep or you like fidgeting this is for you, but you’re still just as far away from viewing VR as you were before downloading it, it’s a viewer tool, NOT a viewer inself. The one thing the ad IS […]

I used to be able to select things with the little circle on the screen while using the viewer, now I have to take my phone out of the viewer, select something, put it back on. ABSOLUTE JOKE! GARBAGE! And why do I have to have a cardboard viewer or one with a qr code? […]
