Sky VR for Android
Not bad on Google Cardboard (HTC 10). Resolution could be better, but the app is better than the other VR demos I've tried. Probably as good as Cardboard will get on this year's mobiles.
How can they have the cheek to advertise this on TV when it doesn't even work. The sound plays but the video doesn't.
This app doesn't work on S8 Plus. When you open the app and try to experience the VR the app just crashes.
Your Android developers don't know how to make vr software.
Hi there watching through my phone, I can only from experience that it was not bad shame about gyro as the SAMSUNG VR had
Does not support one of the largest VR platforms out there "Samsung Gear VR". Com'on Sky get your act together this is crap
Crashes all the time, doesn't work with gear vr.. pointles
Stops playing in mobile mode after about 4 seconds!
The vr effect is fine, but the app will not download or play any content
Wish there was more live 3D content on Sky TV
Couldn't get anything to work! Remote was paired but did nothing! Also used head to tune as this seemed to be the cursor but wouldn't select anything possible advice needed :/. So all I'm all needs more work
I downloaded this app onto my Samsung Galaxy S7 and bought a Gogi VR headset to try it out with. My experience hasn't been a positive one so far. Yes, I can get the videos to play and immerse myself inside them, and yes, I do hear sound. However, my biggest problem is that I can't adjust the headset enough so that I don't get double vision with this app, so it only really works if I close one eye. I was all set to return the headset when I decided to try it with the Google Cardboard app instead, and that was a much more positive experience, so I think the issue must lie with the compatibility of this app with my devices.
I'm a Sky employee and won a Sky VR headset. Love the idea but the resolution of the films leaves a lot to be desired. It's still in its infancy at the moment and I'm sure that things will improve in time.
Think it's only made for Google cardboard a the moment . As with my VR headset the picture isn't great and you can't select anything just by pointing the white dot at the boxes or icons , you need to select it on you phone first , then close the headset back up.
Surely it couldn't be that bad? Maybe the reviews were a bit over the top, I'll download & decide for myself. Oh wow, they weren't joking, it's a horrible app, doesn't work, no content & caused a strange flickering on my phone. Bad bad bad. If I could I would zero star this garbage
Doesn't do anything, worse Sky app ever. VR is next big thing but this is a shocking effort. If it isn't ready why launch it just to get 1 star reviews?
Why make a big thing about a product, launch it, and it doesn't work? Embarrassing
This was a novel experience being in a suicide squad scene. Some stuttering but hey its only 4G 3 year old phone.
Only plays 30 seconds of stuff. Very poor. Need work it. Or scrap it
Can't use as constant flashing causes terrible headaches all works just unusable
No support for PlayStation VR But support for rift which is less popular and more expensive than psvr? Smart move sky
Oooh, do you even test Bro? Come on Sky, it doesn't even successfully play the first clip. Just hangs. Really really bad first impression. Running Cardboard and a Pixel xl. Uninstalled.
Utter rubbish, app opened but then immediately shut down, uninstalled and re installed but still doesn't work
Please release a sky vr app on playstation vr! I'd also pay a ridiculous amount to watch box office boxing and premier league football live in vr
Videos dont play and there is no gaze control. I can hear sound but video is stuck on opening frame
Come on sky. Make a Netflix type app so I can watch my movies.
If this is your attempt to sell VR please try harder. Even a simple movie trailer couldn't play without issues. Which isn't even vr related. Deleted

Movie selector cursor not working. Movie pauses itself every few seconds. Uninstalled. There are FAR BETTER vr apps out There.
I think once there is more content I think it will be amazing would like to see walking dead. I think this would scare the pants off everyone
Makes my phone 'strobe' like a florescent tube!
I have stopped using this app. There is a strong strobe effect which after a while causes headaches.
Would be great! Some of us have tech ready to use these great apps
Unusable on Nexus 6p for this
Not good for gear vr and contains a few vids that are better quality in other gear vr apps
If you have the Gear VR then you can download this from the oculus store not google play.
I can't see any way to use this on phone with no magnetometer. Any chance of adding gaze input please?
It doesn't focus.
It's a new way to advertise sky TV. .. not bad but I would sooner they spent the time and money getting sky q sorted out for smartphones....

All sky apps are rubbish but this one is on a class all of its own no was to set it to gase mode the daydream remote does not work in this app so ever time you want to select something you have to take the phone out of the headset I can only think either sky don't test there apps or your Dev teen have never seen a phone because they can't right apps for them
