Google Cardboard App Reviews

Would recommend!. I had a lot of fun using this app, and found when you look up, and click, you go to space. This reminds me of Star Trek.

Great but how do you download games on it. like it and I’m gonna get my VR cardboard tomorrow so but when I tried the demo, how do you download games usually I use a old iPhone and I don’t know how good the VR cardboard would be but I think I’ll like it so then I got this app but then for some reason why don’t it have games? please fix this, Google (from Liam)

Environments. Please add change your environment

Love it. I love this game so much! It’s so cool i would recommend I have no glitches or anything but I didn’t see the reviews before I downloaded it there is such bad reviews and I was surprised since a good app, I have no problems or anything completely fine but I would give it 5 stars but you can’t like walk and actually move forward and stuff now hopefully it’s added in the future. Like on the dinosaur bone area I want to read the things on the signs now this is just something I’m now upset or anything just hope it might happen.

It works but. So the question is, is this app good or not? The ratings are so low for this app and I don’t know why. It’s a good app and all but what is its purpose? All it does is shows you demos over and over. The other apps are good too, but there are ads, which I did not think there would be, and also they are slow moving, for example Minforge( which should have a run action). Overall good app but I deleted it after a few days bc I got bored of demos and Mineforge. Thank you for your time and have a blessed day!😇

If you have an older version of app, DON’T UPDATE IT!. Restart your phone until it works. Sure, they fixed the spinning, but removed all the content that was there before. Why did google abandon VR when it is taking off everywhere else? Even the iPhone SE2020 is more powerful than oculus quest. This app could have really gone places. Too bad it is just another casualty of google.

Not for me. Is there anything different to do in this app? I put my phone in the cardboard and see nothing but trees and bushes then I click the adventure bottom show me pictures so dumb and that’s all you can’t do anything in this app

It doesn’t work on newer iPhones.. This used to be my favorite app. When I upgraded to the 10 it stopped working. It’s just a shaken mess of images. None of them are viewable anymore. That being said, if it ever gets fixed it will become my favorite app again. You feel like you’re really inside the picture. Please, someone fix this. I have pictures of people in my life that are no longer with me. I want to be in the room with them again.

Remote. I would rate it higher, but mine has the remote with the headset. So, I have never gotten the remote to even turn on. Not sure what I am doing wrong. I have tried almost every brand of AAA batteries and still nothing. It makes it really hard to have to constantly open up the viewer when I need to click on things, such as…. Enter. I wish there was a fix for it, my expectation of getting much assistance is low at this point because I know there will be an excuse on how it cannot be fixed or even replaced. Sorry guys, one star is really squeezing out of my pocket. That is being generous.

Why just demos. I just got this app a few days ago but for some reason there’s nothing but demos there’s just places and you can even move like come on who makes a game but without movement and there just images like a museum,aircraft museum,nasa,this and that it just a never ending loop of images there’s no fun in the app just a digital museum.

Games. I like the pictures that you can click but would be cool if it had games

A pale comparison to the original. The original cardboard camera app was FAR superior to this waste of a download. In the original app, you could take your own stereoscopic panoramic photos which were viewable in the app. Unfortunately, the original app no longer works properly on my phone (the images rapidly spin around when viewed in the stereoscopic mode). I was hoping when I downloaded this version, I would be able to view my panoramic photos that I took with the original app. But to my disappointment, this new version won’t let you view your own photos! What a joke. Who wants to look at random images instead of creating and viewing your own. Do better Google!

Better Visual. At first I thought you guys were discontinuing Cardboard, but it finally got an update to keep it alive. That’s awesome! Just… don’t screw up next time.

questions. how do you play one of the games because im seeing that it has a VR game and VR video.

The cardboard camera app is unavailable. We got the whole set up to find that you need an app to get the photos you need and that app is unavailable in most country’s

I can’t get apps for google cardboard. It won’t let me get the apps from the library because it says I’m in the version 3.4.0 and I think it needs a huge fix and I mean a big one

Horrible app.. This app is horrible! They removed all the good stuff and now you can only look at pictures of museums. I used to LOVE this and use it with my cousin all the time, but they removed practically everything and now you have to use other apps for the google cardboard headset. I would rate this 0 stars if I could.

Horrible. Every time I try to select on one to view it, I can’t. I understand why has such low rates. It is a horrible app. It doesn’t work right my controller refuses to work with it and I can’t select anything to view. overall, I really just don’t like the app. I don’t recommend using it.

No programs. It seems there are no programs to do here. There are just 4-5 VR pictures and that is it. There were a lot of programs before. I hope they improve this

The best. I love how you can move

Used to love it. I used to love looking at the beautiful poly landscapes and staring at the breathtaking northern lights. But ever since the update, it’s there is no demos and I can’t do that anymore. Pls bring back the demos for old times sake.

I can’t organize. I downloaded apps that are available for cardboard but they are not appearing.. this app is basically useless if I can’t use it for that purpose.

Wow. This is fun with, and without vr, but it has its flaws. One of its flaws is that it only has 2 things to do, tutorial, and explorer mode. But besides that great game would recommend.

Google carbord. So you set up the game and you play I like this game because it let’s you play so much games

Could use more!. Good, but could definitely use some more as the app is already laid down. You could probably go through it all in 30 min.

How. Me and my friend got this and she got to connect it to her phone so she can she her photos and apps but idk how to do but I want to do if anyone knows how to do it please let me know

I 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 have a google cardboard. I 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 have a google cardboard but i have destekvr and it works so good!

About the product and the app. I have an iphone 15 pro and use it and it works just fine. The product is amazing except for the nose part. Mine didn’t come with foam but it is overall okay. You can’t really play games on it, but you can watch videos. It is hard to find vids so I screen record them, and I use my clipchamp video editor and place the video on both sides.

I dont have a iphone.. Its good but every time i open the app i have to turn my ipad around for it to work if i had a phone i would recommend it

How do use the app. Once’s I got the evo be headset it made me go on demos and I was stuck there so many times and also they only have one controller like bro why one when you need two and that controller does not work and yes I did batteries but it still doesn’t work wast of time for me man

don’t buy. The game was fine at first, it was really fun and my family loved it! Later on, they removed EVERYTHING BUT THE TUTORIAL!!!! Do not install, find something better. Thanks for the worthless installation Google “cardboard vr”

The best app!!!!. I have an iPhone 10 and it feels so real that I thought I was playing the oculus!! It’s the best!!!!

App was fun.. The app is fun, if you have a Google Cardboard compatible headset, it’s kind of essential to have.

Outstanding value! 😎. Everyone should try Google Cardboard! A true to original *cardboard* viewer with lenses, an elastic head strap, and interaction magnet costs less than a Starbucks®️ Frappuccino. The Cardboard experience will leave a *much* bigger impression than the Frappuccino. There’s always a better headset at a higher price point, but that $0 → $6 jump provides by far the biggest value!

impossible to use. this doesn’t work at all the only thing you can do is look at the demo you can’t view anything other than the stupid 4-5 areas they already have on the app. I was told to get this by my professor for class but it doesn’t even work so I can view cities in different parts of the world smh

This was great. I have a VR headset, but that stuff worked and guess what I was in Nasa when I was using Google CardboardApp

Doesn’t work. It says something like cannot connect to server check your internet connection when I try to play a demo like what?

It was better when I was younger. It’s not good, when I was younger, I remember there being things like colidiscope and adventure and one where you could plant little flowers around but now it’s just boring and nothing to do

Don’t waste your time. On any VR game I play by Cardboard, the screen keeps on shaking and spinning. There isn’t anything I can do about it. Why can’t they fix this!? Anyways, please just do something else and DO NOT download anything by Cardboard. Trust me, it’s not worth your time

Amazing app back in the day. I have an iPod touch 5th gen and it has one of the best versions of the app honestly. The demos with the birds, flowers, and such were breathtaking. I used to lay in my bed and look up at the northern lights until I fell asleep but ever since I upgraded and put my iPod in a drawer I haven’t been able to do those demos or see the beautiful low poly landscapes. If you guys ever do an update again please bring them back, if not please export the assets used in all the demos and have them available for download as FBX files so we can create our own versions of this app for more platforms such as PCVR and Oculus.

Good. I hate how you guys have to make us take our phone out to press the buttons it is so annoying.

I can’t get past the tutorial. I just download this game and the only thing that has is tutorial and explore I’ve been stuck on this for a long time

Really confused. So, I was getting kinda mad that the buttons weren’t working. Pretty confused as to why it’s not working. I don’t think it works on newer iPhones. Mine phone is an XR and it’s not really cooperating.

Get new apps button doesn’t take us anywhere.. The “Get New Apps” button is broken. Please Fix!

Very Cool. I don't have a got a cardboard so I used a cardboard box that is shaped like a vr head set and it works just fine

Working on iOS 14.3. Doesn’t shake uncontrollably anymore. Latest 2022 update fixed the bug.

Terrible. I don’t know if this is just a glitch but I only have 1 option of things I can do and it’s literally just like 5 pictures you can look around and but you can’t move or do anything but look it’s actually really bad

It will not work 😣. My vr is not communicate to my phone to click next. all I can do it turn up or turn down my volume 😖 I was so excited for this and it would not even work. 😩 it is Bluetooth connected so why not work.

Need more demos. So In the pictures of the app there are a lot of demos but I only got one demo. Now I know you updated this 4 months ago but please bring back the demos that were on here before you updated this

A question before downloading. Does it work if you are using some other vr headset?

Not updated for years. Completely broken on ios14

Problems. Doesn’t work on my iPhone XR keeps on crashing, especially when I try to press on the show demo button.

Love it. Great app because you can relax and have fun, but could you add some more demo stuff please overall 4.5 star rating

Wish the lenses weren't needed. Finally an update for iPod touch it crashed every time I turned my screen before

What button? This button!. ITS THE BUTTON ON THE TOP! The silver notch in the side of the cardboard! All these negative reviews are simply because people aren’t smart enough to ... I don’t know maybe GOOGLE IT?! Any way great app, great product.. thankyou!

Fun. ⚫️🔺⚫️

😡. My screen is on vr is moving a lot! Not what I thought it would be

This is cool. This game is so awesome and fun and I love it when u can fly. The landscape is so nice and relaxing I like the style and story and the fact that there is more to it than just “arctic journey”

The. My vr headset doesn’t havre a button or a we code

REALLY. Just got the Google cardboard and I must say this cardboard is cutting edge technology! However it would've been wise on Google's part if they used bubble wrap instead of cardboard because it would've been 10x more breathtaking and more futuristic-looking. But all in all I would give it a 👌/10

Can you make this compatible for iPad. Please google make google cardboard compatible for iPad

I cant even open it!. EVERY TIME I TAP THE APP IT JUST KICKS ME OUT!!!!!!

No sound. It’s a cool app for images- but the sound doesn’t work on some phones. It used to work on my older iPhone but it’s not working on my iPhone 8 which is really disappointing :(

Oh THAT button?. Thanks for your super helpful review mr sebhale but you need to understand that just because were using THIS app doesn’t mean we’re also using the actual google cardboard product, with your obviously genius brain did this not occur to you?? Ha. Imagine that. It feels as though they’re trying to force us to use it though since no other VR viewers ive used have a button in the way the cardboard one does. I mean, i get it, we’re using your FREE app, we better damn well PAY for your product to make up for it right? Plant some ads in or... I dunno.. something else... we aren’t gonna buy the cardboard (literal cardboard!!) when a decent store-bought option that looks like it’ll last more than a week exists for $10-20!

Borked. Completely broken. Seems the gyroscope can’t be calibrated, so it spins out of control. Shame.

Uuhhhggg. I try to press the different viewer, but it never lets me. It has only happened once. On every app that uses cardboard, it will still never let me so this is a let down for me :(

💩💩💩💩💩💩🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆. YEAH BOOOOIIIIII!!!!!

Doesn’t work on XS Max. Latest version of iOS and this app. Was excited to use my new headset but the app opens and as soon as I click on anything it crashes. Very poor and very frustrating, please fix

Useless. Just spins out of control on my iPhone guess I wasted the money on a headset can’t find any other apps to use.

Not a really good app overall. Not much to offer overall and the rotation will not change on my device

Blurry. I don't really understand it but I can't get it to focus as a single image

Stupid. Kicks me out of the app every time i try to go into it!!! Not cool! I hate it!

Does nothing but spin uncontrollably. Does nothing but spin uncontrollably

I don’t have button. My brother goggles don’t have a button ( I have Blackfin goggles) And I don’t have the QR code I think.

ALMOST doesn’t crash. Using iPhone XR, app can’t do anything other than displaying title screen without crashing.

Broken on xs Max. Just spinning out of control, nothing clickable, everything just blurry and turning around. Unusable

Has great potential. Very cool. This app is very cool. I can see this app being a fantastic educational resource in years to come and allows us to visit other places from the comfort of our own home. It would be even better if you could move around the space and interact with it. Like being on the holo-deck on Star Trek. In the future maybe you could even interact with with other people who are using the app. I can't wait to see what the future hold for this little gem.

Amazing!!. This works very nicely on iPhone 6. A great intro to VR and Google Cardboard. Thank you so much!

Wth??. I have exactly the same prob. Have you figured it out?? Help me~

How great is this!!!!. What a clever cost effective product. My children are amazed and I can't wait to see where this idea goes

No support for iPhone X screen. See title.

Amazing. Thanks Deakin for a great device. Very clever and most enjoyable!

Button!!. The button is on the cardboard to the phone. It is on the right hand side on the CARDBOARD!!!! Anyway cool vr and awesome app.

App won’t delete!. Please help me, two apps by google llc won’t delete including this one. Make it delete off my screen and I will rate it a 5.

Glitchy. Downloaded the app to use now it just keeps flickering like CRAZY!

Typo VR. Doesn't work with typo R goggles. There's no way to select things and click on them.

It's OK, I guess.. The Google Cardboard app is fairly OK. It doesn't have a whole lot to it though. But since the Carboard SDK is now open to iOS, I'm expecting more great things from Google.

No current iPhone support. No support for Iphone x!

Wow. It’s cool

Wonderful. This app is a beautiful introduction to VR. Unfortunately it's also the best VR app out there right now, and I've looked. Hopefully some more quality apps come along to harness this technology.

What button?. As per the other reviews, all buttons pressed act like they should, but none are specific to select as requested by the screen. Unable to move forward in the VR world without removing the phone from the viewer to select.

So much fun. So different but amazing

Button! What Button?. I keep getting to a point where I need to input a "click" but there is no way of doing that. With my iPhone in the viewer it is impossible to access any buttons or the screen. With my iPhone out of the viewer all of the buttons do exactly what they should e.g. volume and lock, and the only way to acheive a "click" is to touch the screen??? I don't get it!

Keeps crashing. I keep having to re download the app because of it crashing when I select the "urban hike" option. Otherwise it works great 😉

Meh. Started at average but when you open the app you realise that you have to download more apps to unlock most things

Crashed!. It crashed every time. Couldn't even get it into the viewer without it crashing. Didn't make it much fun to use!

Seriously in need of a redo👎🏾. Does nothing but crash!

Needs further development. Heaps of potential, but this version not reliable -sorry

Screen lock! Seriously????. Haven't seen more than 1min. What can I say. 😞

Useless. This has five demos and that’s about it.

AWFUL. It worked the first time for me but then it didn’t give the option on YouTube to change it into virtual reality dont reccomend this app until they fix this.

App does not work. Image constantly flies all over the place, no way to reset, no options to enter helmets without QR code

Please update.... Does not support iOS 14.

Demo only. All you can do is use the demo

Can’t play…. I cannot play for some reason, it doesn’t let me. You can only see 4 photos that’s it.

Just for practice. This game is for practice but I really suggest the creator updates thsi game to have more photos

No content. It only has 4 photos that you can view thats it

Does not work. It’s been months and it’s not been fixed. Shame on development team.

Oof. Doesn’t work on iPhone 10

🦄. It’s okay but I would add more stuff and yeah it’s good

Why iOS. I think on iOS you don’t have as many features on Google cardboard

Doesn’t work anymore. It just spazzes out and spins uncontrollably when you open it Running on iOS 14.4

Unusable, PLEASE fix it. Does not work at all in iOS 14 and I would not be surprised at all if attempting to use while it goes absolutely crazy could cause seizures for some people. Frustrating because I know that this app is capable of great things.

The best. O ya

Does not work!!. This does not work on an iPhone 8 or 11! The image is out of control. How do I return this thing?

Viewer. Does not work with britannica encyclopedia app. On iPhone 8 which says was tested and approved on the box

Spins uncontrollably in iOS 14. This app doesn’t work with iOS 14 and the VR experience spins uncontrollably. Please fix

Didn’t work for iPhone 7. Don’t know why but never does anything on iPhone 7 up. 🤬

Please fix yet one more time. App has worked wonderfully with few exceptions. Latest version not allowing navigation in tours. No arrows show to change location.

Garbage. The game is garbage it says you can Download apps but never shows you how to download it

Useless. I don’t get what the apps for and all it does is show you pictures and it tells me I can download apps on it but idk know what that means

Fun at first…. So you start off with all new adventures, it’s cool but then you just restart after, what? five photos? It’s awful. The button hardly works, the settings are awful, and if you get the better version it just makes you pay. I DO NOT recommend.

Pls fix. All it does is spin. Gonna make me have a seizure

Useless app. This app does not allows me to play the 4 games that has there, not cool.

Horrible. It just spins around. And does nothing. Even the other apps

Spining. Cardboard app/game dose not stop spining for me ...

The people on this app are stupid. The reason why you can’t download apps is because YOU DOWNLOAD THEM FROM THE APP STORE NOT THE APP

Great but can’t play YouTube videos. This is a great app but I can’t play a YouTube video so it works with my headset. The demos are good. Overall 4 stars

Spinning issue... Please fix..it still doesn’t work properly with IOS15…

Absolutely stunning. For cardboard, this is one of the single greatest things I've ever experienced in my entire life, it's breathtaking

Completely broken and useless. Another piece of Google abandonware.

Amazing. This is the only good VR app on iPhone. Just the 20 second flying demo is was amazing. There should be a longer Version.

Will not work. It will spin around manically and it’s just horribly made so fix this plz

Not supported on iOS 14. Works fine on iOS 13, however it is broken on iOS 14 and can’t be used

Keeps crashing. When ever I try to load the demos, the app crashes. I have restarted my phone, updated it and even redownloaded the app, not sure what to do

Meh. Kinda hoping it would not spin😒

SPINS UNCONTROLLABLY. I tried downloading this app on my iPhone SE and when I entered the app the screen would spin like it was on recreational drugs. I tried downloading it on my brothers iPhone 10 and had the same problem. PLEASE FIX THIS👿🤬👎

Confused. The menu I have only has two buttons,not the big menus in the pictures

Support discontinued. After some research, I found out that support for devices later than iPhone 6 has been discontinued. So don’t hope for any change soon if you have an iPhone 12. When I had an iPhone 5, it was the best anyway.

No Longer Supported For iOS. This app no longer works for iOS 14. Google stopped supporting it and a lot of quality developers are left out in the cold.

Image spins uncontrollably. App was great before. It does not work anymore.

Spins ….that’s it ….. Good job google…yet more quality products! Lol 🤦‍♂️….spins wildly and that’s it!

You can fix spinning. By restarting the phone

I know why it’s spins out like a Tasmanian devil. Google cardboard discontinued support with IPhone 6 and latest devices so everything in their systems is just all over the place . So even with an iPhone 12, don’t expect a fix for the spinning unless u got an iPhone 5 laying somewhere

Don’t waste your time - useless. Only has a ‘demo’ which is just a low poly beach. The only other thing this app does is let’s you ‘explore’ just 4 pictures, that’s it. Explore is also a stretch, as you just stand there and look around one room in 4 different places. You get more action from an empty cup of water than this app.

it was ok. sooo it was a great experience but unfortunately it didn’t work as well as i thought ut would, then again i learnt a lot so sort of it was ok

Cardboard safari/Chrome/browser. I like to play videos that are using browser player. Like kisscartoon.me . Thx in advance

No features. There is like 5 different photos and they don’t even move it is so bad. There’s like nothing you can do on it and is by far the worst VR app ever!

My review of Google Cardboard. The whole thing screw up.

Shame on devs. The screen spins forever and has been like this for while quit being so lazy and fix it

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Excellent!. I use this app with an iPhone 6, for anybody wondering and the app works fine. All of the 1 star reviews are all very ignorant reviews, such as somebody trying to use glasses with this? Also, people are saying they can't get past the home screen, but they don't know how to use the app. I use some of the recommendations and they're ok, I guess, but the Arctic Journey section is amazing! Although the graphics aren't awesome and my v1 viewer has a pretty low FOV, I love using their simple, yet addictive simulations. Although, with a few apps the button doesn't work to move, but that may just be the ad placement. As a whole, this product/app would be 4.85/5 stars. Phenomenal!

Doesn’t work. It keeps taking me to demos

Google Cardbored. I think that it is just amazing. The way they set it up is great, you can go to Paris and even it shows a Panaramic Picture of the actually moon. The only reason I gave it a 4 star is because some parts are really hard to focus for my eyes and can lag but it hardly ever does and when it isn't lagging it's a really cool experience. You will really enjoy it if you decide to get it! :D

Great app but.... Great app! Has a list of virtual reality apps. I would give it five stars but there is only one big problem for me. The button at the top of a google cardboard virtual reality headset. That would be so easy to press except for the fact that I don't have a google cardboard headset. I have a different brand of virtual reality. It's hard for me to select stuff in the apps because I have to take off the headset and take my phone out, to just select something. Please figure out another way to select an option, or else my review must stay the same for now :( Other then that, great app!

Love this!. I love this app! It works great with a Utopia 360° and of course the google cardboard because this app was made for that! Can’t wait till these demos become finished and then fully released! That will be something to look forward to!! The graphics are amazing on this app and everything works! The only thing I wished is that on the Arctic VR Demo is that while flying you could do it as long as you want and whatever you look you’ll go with the other Arctic Terns. But I still love this app!

HOLEY MOLEY!!!!!!!! AMAZING!!!. Google has FINALLY made something that is original and fulfills on the promise they had and have as a company - this is as original, genuine, breakthrough and freaking amazing as ANYTHING ANYBODY has done!!!!! Excellent work, impeccable design and implementation and GOD WILLIN' AND THE CREEK DON'T RISE they won't go all ADHD on us and abandon it, but INSTEAD keep it GOING!!! This is completely groundbreaking and paradigm shifting level work - excellent Google!!!! PLEASE KEEP GOING!!!!!

I have a question!. Okay, so I love this app and my new be headset, but I have a question. I was messing around on the app and it brought me to space and if I pushed the trigger, it would go to light speed until I hit the trigger again. Now, I can't figure out how I did it. Is there any way you or anyone else could tell me how I did it? It was really cool!

Feature Request: Support for Volume Controls as an Input. First of all, I love Google Cardboard. It performs fairly well on my iPhone 6s, but while using a Cardboard compatible headset, I of course cannot touch the screen; the only way I can interact is by passing a magnet over the front of the headset. All that being said, one thing I would like to see in the future, is support for external volume controls (e.g. inline volume controls for headphones). This would allow us users to more easily and conveniently interact with Cardboard via things like Bluetooth selfie buttons, among other accessories. Other than that, keep up the good work. 👍

Awesome. Okay, so for basically what every 1-2 star says... Get one with a button. Disable Auto-Lock. Take off your glasses. But otherwise, flawless! 15 dollars and you can get SO MUCH out of it! Arctic Journey is really calming and looks amazing (the whole demo is made of polygonal landscapes and it looks like someone could make a full game out of it), the other demos are cool, and there's just SO much potential with this!

Needs more!. When I say it needs more I mean it needs more fixes, more demos, and more choices. I would like to mention the biggest problem. I have my headset set up. It knows what I’m using but I’ve spent up to ten minutes at the “Place your phone into your viewer” and “rotate to navigate back screens”. Also I found the demos hard to use. When I got to them of course. However, I like the graphics on the realistic and the kind of “crystalline and 3D figure” style. But I think the flying one is amazing when I can do it. Although I get 15 seconds and that’s it. I which it was longer because I have to spend 20 minutes trying to get into the demo only to go flying for 20 seconds. Left a bad taste in my mouth to the point where I’ve debated to keep it or not.

So upset. I updated without knowing google was going to REMOVE ALL THE COOL CONTENT. Now it’s a mini slideshow. I hate you google.

Cool but overcomplicated. The whole requiring magnets and the proper sensor in the device really overcomplicates things. Would it not be simpler smarter and easier to have some voice activation using a wireless headset or built in mic which every device has (just say click to click) or simply be able to click a button on the wireless headset. Or even use that opening in the lid that exposes the camera where u could SIMPLY just wave your finger across the camera and it register as a click. All these things are way more universal to all devices. All These suggestions are software based and would even reduce the cost to make them.

Screen shaking!??. I recently bought a VR mobile headset that came with the controller I have an iPhone 8 and when I tried using this app when I try playing any demo my screen begins to shake uncontrollably like I’m not doing anything I have my phone still and everything is just shaking I saw the reviews and this works with iPhone sixes only?? Or what I really need help with this I don’t know if it’s just me and my iPhone 8 but please if there’s a solution let me know and yes I restarted my phone and deleted it and reinstalled it over and over and every time I try to play a demo it just leaves my screen shaking

Amazing!!. Get this app! (No joke-I'm a real person) Best thing I've ever done! I showed it to everyone I saw! Its so fascinating and I've been to most of the places they show on the 'urban hike' and absolutely loved being able to visit them again! My brother loves the 'kaleidoscope' and my parents like the 'urban hike'! I hope everyone gets this app!!!

Kind of neat, but needs work. This is actually pretty cool, but really needs some work. Also, Google needs to put together more introductory tutorials to introduce total beginners to how to use it. Specifically, the tour app didn't work very well. It did not respond to clicks to change locations or to move to the direction arrow. The magnet for clicking isn't really functional enough of the time. The images appeared blurry to me; maybe I needed to wear my glasses but they would not fit into the viewer. There were no directions as to whether this was necessary to view the materials provided. If this can be improved it would be a considerable advance in viewing technology. It's really a beta at this stage. I hope Google can make this work for the general population. Right now it's just a toy for technophiles.

Used to be able to play. I used to play on my other iPhone but when I agent to play with this iPhone (11 Pro) I had issues not being able to get into the game. Like I can open the app but it gives me a screen to set up my google cardboard and doesn’t let me pass. No matter what I press it doesn’t let me. I tried restarting the game, deleting it and getting it again and nothing works. Pls pls pls fix it. I used to love this app but now I want to play and doesn’t let me.

Absolute garbage. It is nothing but demos and tutorials.

iPhone bug ?. Doesn’t work on my IPhone? Thanks

Review. I could’t find a game

This is amazing!. I got the Google cardboard because I'm a customer at Verizon, and they are giving them to customers for free! When I first tried it on it was amazing because I have never done it before. After a while though it gets kind of boring, which is why I brought it to school. Letting other people who have never done it try it out is hilarious! Watching their reactions is hilarious😂 because they look like crazy people. The reason I gave it a four is because of limited places to see and everyone including myself thinks the graphics are pretty blurry. Overall it's great.

No help option. I’m trying to figure out why the screen looks glitchy (the picture is always scattered) and whenever I try to select help in the settings, the app simply crashes. I have not been able to enjoy this VR experience yet because of this and from the looks of it others have had similar complaints two years ago. If this isn’t taken seriously, then this was money wasted as far as wanting to view cool stuff in VR. Not cool.

Love this app! A fee things though,. I love this app. It’s really fun and makes up for not being able to travel in real life. My only problem was that it was a bit glitchy for me. When I clicked go to new york it didn’t take me there, it just kept me in Venice. The same thing happened with wanting to go to london and the great barrier reef. Other than that, this is a great app.

WASTE OF TIME!!!. Don’t fall for it! It’s only 4 pictures and there not even interesting!!!

Great!. For all of you out there complaining that your headset doesn’t have a button, you need a Cardboard viewer in order for it to work. I use a Merge 360 Viewer with an iPhone SE, if you’re wondering. Anyway, this app worked out great! Although I wish that there was more to do, I guess I can’t complain, as this a free VR experience. A big thanks to Google for making such a cheap yet impressive form of Virtual Reality!

How to fix da crashing. If you get a crash, I know the reason, put your device like how you hold it, it’s kinda hard to say it in text, but you get it, if you just put your phone like how you would play Minecraft, it crashes instantly, if you put it how you use WhatsApp, then it doesn’t crash, it’s hard to explain it in text, but you should understand, anyways, great app 5 stars!

Complete and utter… GARBAGE. Back when I had an iPhone 5s it worked fine, but as I upgraded to a 7, this app is trash. It looks as if the image is running all over the place like a kaleidoscope. It crashes ALL THE TIME. When ever I go to “help” it crashes. This is a garbage app I I demand it to be fixed for the iPhone 7, I’ve tried deleting my apps, restarting my phone, but nothing works, if this isn’t fixed, I will have to delete the app, throw away my google cardboard, and not recommend your company or apps to anyone. I WILL go to the better business bureau. I am enraged at this app, I will ruined your business. 🤬

It could be nice but….. Don’t get me wrong VR isn’t bad for stuff like the Oculus Quest 2 (now meta) it’s not bad at all is actually amazing so don’t take this as a deterrent from VR but this I have to say is trash it can get better but that includes getting a $100 headset to put your phone in Instead of the crappy Cardboard headset. plus they’re gonna need to fix their software because it just won’t work, so this could be better than it is but this is not the best for sure, i’m giving this a two star instead of a one star because it can be improved on.

Seems like a miracle. I've been using the cardboard app with the Noon headset. I wish there was a way to navigate the menu with out the magnet button but with just s sight curser like the noon app. None the less, this is not a hoax but I believe this app is curing me of my stereoblindness!!! Seriously! I've been stereoblind since birth and inside of the kaleidoscopic function I believe I am seeing in full 3d! I understand the parallax effects that are going on but I really do believe I am seeing in 3d. More highly stereoscopic, responsive content would be greatly appreciated!

It is good. I tried it on my iPhone 6s Plus anyWho perfectly fine so I don't know what are you cool with the so-called ✌🏾iPhone xr X✌🏾 saying that it doesn't even work but it does it works perfectly fine on my phone start of people just hating and there Being B!€h$ for putting all bad reviews in the third person is right why don't they make their own game and see what happens

Great App!!!. This is a great app for an introduction to VR. It’s tons of fun to mess around with. It doesn’t have the best quality picture but it’s not meant to be the HTC Vive or Oculus Rift. It doesn’t have a ton of content but the app is free. There are other apps you can get that are compatible with the Google Cardboard. Most of the other reviews are people complaining about how their off brand VR headsets don’t have a button to work the app and that is their fault for not buying the actual headset meant to go with the app.

Won’t scan. I’ve tried scanning my new goggles that I bought and the app won’t scan them! It drives me nuts because I have tried and tried and tried and this won’t work. I’ve tried both pairs mine and my brothers and it won’t scan either. This is something that could be wrong with my goggles but I highly doubt it. Please fix this before others like me keep getting upset and mad because we really want to do VR but when we tried this one it won’t scan and I am highly disappointed about this

Great App, missing feature. This app does a great job of extending the iphone to a stereoscopic viewer. It works indiscriminately on all stereo-viewers... Except it only seems to allow google cardboard to provide input events. People who have similar products can't click without opening the product up. Maybe allow users to send input using an iphone mic and headset remote as well?

What an awesome step to in-home VR. This app is a small, 4 feature (so far in this version) VR experience. These features are: - a stationary mode with different scenes you can look around in - a viewer of model artifacts that rotate according to your movements - a Google maps street view just below the Eiffel Tower similar to the first feature but you can maneuver a la street view - a kaleidoscope effect that can be started and stopped to make different designs (personal favorite) The kaleidoscope was definitely the most interesting feature. This is due to it being dynamic, interactive, and one of the most immersive. I couldn't help but smile the first time I tried this. This app is a good deal of fun and a step in a good direction. VR is the future and it's awesome to see it happening right now. I am very impressed by the renderings and abilities of this app that was made for an iPhone, I can't wait to see what hardware made specifically for VR will be like.

Fun gimmick, sorta like stereo photography. Fun to use initially, besides the demos, the app seems to function as a launcher. I couldn't figure out how to access the camera to make my own 3d vr panos. Later, I found the spherical camera in Google Streetview app, that wasnt clear to me at first. Google cardboard is cheap , but the assembly isn't that clear, they must've hired the people from ikea to create the assembly instructions. This type of 3d is more immersive than looking at stereograms, but the viewer is practically identical, still fun to look at.

amazing!. I have an iPhone 5c and the app works perfectly every time I use it. Cool toy! Hope that they will add immersive videos soon. Too bad it gives you a headache/motion sickness after 5 minutes of using it. One should probably not have a screen so close to one's eyes for very long. VR technology can only go so far as our eyeballs will allow it to!

Amazing peak at a VR future. Google cardboard paired with any inexpensive VR cardboard device creates an immersive experience unlike any other app you've downloaded. I bought the 360fly cardboard VR headset at bestbuy and it worked wonderfully with this product. I scared my siblings with the sisters app, and did a virtual street view tour of my childhood home. The possibilities are endless. I can't wait to see what future apps take advantage of cardboard. The best part is, the button featured on my VR headset works flawlessly, it seems unlikely that it would be compatible since its apple but everything works as advertised. Playing on iPhone 6s Plus.

Display distortion. Downloaded and paired and the display is funky.

The should use the headphone media button for clicks!. This app is great and all. The problem is that all the older google cardboard headsets don't have a working switch for the iPhone. So to press a button input I have to use my finger inside the headset which totally ruins the experience. A great way would be if google could just register presses on the headphone remote (the middle button that usually starts/stops playing music) so that you could use this as the switch. Come on Google! Do it!

I just hate it. I don’t like it I’m barely even like it

C kind of kind. No games😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Really needs plug-ins (cinema app?). I don't know why other reviews say that it doesn't work with the magnet button from the original Google Cardboard. Perhaps it doesn't work on older iPhones? I have a super cheap Cardboard viewer that uses two magnets instead of a ring and a magnet. It works perfectly with the iPhone 6 Plus. I'd love to see a cinema app for simulating IMAX on an iPhone 6 Plus. How about having a plug-in system where different functions can be added with in-app purchasing?

If you don't think it's amazing, you're an idiot.. This is amazing! Blew my mind! Especially when you use the google cardboard goggles, that are available online! If you put them together properly and use them properly you should be blown away by what they've achieved using only cardboard a magnet and an iPhone. There are other apps for the Google cardboard goggles also. Some are amazing, and some are so-so, but regardless you are experiencing virtual reality, and given how early we are in virtual reality technology, this is a very nice taste of what is to come in the future. I love it so much! I've spent hours at a time, roaming around the different cities across the world! If you can't afford to go there this is a great substitute! Also... IT'S FREE!!!!

Greatly amazing. Most technological milestones are expensive and sophisticated. This being the first of its kind in such a minute size is a great experience for anyone who haven't used this tech before. It's cheap, light, easy to use AND IT ACTUALLY WORKS. I completely love it,and if you come by one please get it. It's worth every inch of sweat and penny. Big thumbs up👍👍👍👍👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Crashing. A few months ago I used this app on my dad’s phone and decided once I upgraded my phone I’d use this too because at the time I couldn’t use it on my phone because it wasn’t compatible. Now I have the iPhone XR but every time I try to start the demo it just crashes and I can’t do anything! I’ve tried deleting the app and redownloading it and I’ve restarted my phone but to no luck will it work. I gave it 3 stars because when I saw the VR experience it was amazing but obviously the flaw here is that I can no longer see the VR at all. If I could actually get on the app and use it then this app would get a 5 star rating because in all honesty this app is very amazing in the way it’s animated and the experience is very amazing. But until I can actually get into the app I’ll have to give it 3 stars

Uhhh. How do you move?????

Compeltely misses the mark. There are many ways to create you own panoramas and photospheres and have been for years. Yet this app ignores the fact that someone may actually want to see their own content. Why would you go to the trouble to create an app that is guaranteed to bore the audience after 30 minutes. I've seen the pre-packaged content. Why should I even keep this app around. It's designed to be quickly deleted. I've written apps. I know that it's trivial to allow users to view their own content through file sharing. Whoever wrote this app was asleep at the switch.

Scrambled. I had just got my view master vr yesterday,downloaded this app and configured my phone to this app and when I run the cardboard demo it’s scrambled between the next screen and the demo vr screen running at the same time together. I tried to go into help and my app drops I can’t even put in a help ticket for them to at least let me know what’s up or to fix the problem. I have loaded another vr app to play on and watch my master it works. I guess I’ll just use this one for syncing my phone.🥺😔

can’t get into the app. i found my google cardboard be from a couple years ago and of course my first instinct was to get the app and try it out. however i am only able to get to a screen that says demo and i push the demo button and it crashes. i’ve been doing this on my iphone xr for 10 minutes. it has done kind of the same thing on my ipod. i push the button and it lasts a little while sometimes if i get lucky. but then it CRASHES. google, get your stuff together!

no ipad google cardboard. just look @ the title man

Fantastic. It's ineffable what you have done with this app and bringing VR at the worlds fingertips. I am not sure what's up with others but I have an iPhone 5s and it works perfectly no crashing setting activate once the phone is flips to insert into cardboard. Great experience. I fear kids in our future will only experience virtual and avoid true reality. That's very sad but self control will become their best quality. Lol
