I've tried and ultimately uninstalled just about every vr app in the Google Play Store that looks even remotely interesting and after getting the viewer around Christmas time a year ago, the only vr apps that remain in my phone are this, Google Cardboard istelf, and the Google Camera. There are plenty of viewers that put you in an empty theater, but the novelty of looking around an empty room while your video is playing wears off in about 5 minutes. This is much more useful.

Nougat external SD issues in 2017. 2 issues. 1 the simple file browser can't access external SD. It causes an app not responding, if I try to go up 1 level from the default home. I need this, in order to select an entire directory. 2 the advanced file browser won't allow me to select more than 1 file (although it will access the SD card.) Fix these issues and I'll change to 5 stars.

I'm an architect looking for an app that will display high quality stereoscopic spherical renderings to clients. I've tried a few, and this one is the best in every metric, except terrible resolution. My 8192px X 8192px stereo photosphere rendering seemingly gets reduced to something like 2k, which is perhaps fine for movies? but not enough for still spheres, and lowest of all apps I've tried so far. Please let me know if there is a setting I've missed, or if you update the app.

For a "pro" app, it's lacking in some pretty fundamental features. The main one is that there seems to be a resolution limit to your images. Every version has fewer and fewer features it seems. Not sure what's happening with this one. It's still the best on the market, and that's a sad fact.

C70%
by C####:

It's okay, but Input section in settings seems completely worthless. I have never gotten any device to react with this app at all. That is pretty frustrating. Other than that, well done.

Have used this as my main player for about a year now. Some things I would like for this to be 5 stars: - Support for UHD videos. I have a phone with 4K screen and would like to take advantage of this in the player. The desktop version of this app claims to support UHD so why doesn't this version? - A clear user guide for all of the functions and settings. I can't find this anywhere but it is a bit of a no-brainer to have for an app like this. You folks have a website that promotes the app. It should also be used to help users like me who have supported the app and need help. - Better support for bluetooth controllers. I have managed to connect a small vr controller that works within the settings but not the main screen itself when a video is playing. All I really want the controller to do is act as a screen button so I can recentre the image when it drifts - but this doesn't seem possible unless you have a gamepad...at least I can't find a way to do it, especially without the aforementioned user guide. - Controls for colour, brightness, contrast and volume levels please. And slow mo function if you don't mind. Waiting to give you 5 stars... Thanks.

Great app The sensor fusion options is great and does a great job canceling out the inaccuracies of my gyro sensor. However I'm missing a neck modeling feature or something similar: When you rotate your head, the image should slightly pan accordingly. This is because your eyes aren't the center of your heads rotation. Your neck is. Can this, if possible, be implemented in a future release?

Can use more options, especially some sort of vr file browsing. But i love quite a lot. - gif support, there are gifs out there thatd be really neat to see blown up and surrounding yourself. And this app has the best controls for projectioning that ive seen -more options for how videos are projected, particularly cube mode, itd be great if a mode was the video on each face of the cube, instead of wrapping it around the cube. -more explanation for how options affect the display as it took me a few days of playing around before i realized some bigger peeves were settings i goofed up - i love the quick menu, but dont always have the mic button, maybe a virtual button for bringing up said quick menu - add more customizability or options to earlier mentioned quick menu, like volume, a tab for bringing up a vr file browser, playlists, changing projection, just to name a few possibilities. I totally understand VR is still new and lots of resources probably dont exist to make VR apps easy to make, ive literally yet to find a VR app without something vital to seamless VR that is missing or done wrong. Young stuff, it's still damned cool having an imax in my house.

[ EDIT:. Support promptly replied. ] I hate to do this via play comments, but I found no alt contact. All pro features remain locked after buying pro. I've un/reinstalled both free & pro lic, but nothing changes. Please advise, thank you!

Update s#ck! Now it wont play any of my movies 3D or 2D. Updates should fix bug and not to inconvenient paying customer. Fix it. I love this app.

Next and Previous buttons are not functioning. Low resolution. No volume buttons. So dissatisfied, especially for a paid app. We've been waiting an update for 3 months now.

It's confusing but I like what I can figure out. where is the volume

Resolution is just terrible! I was hoping to get HD quality when i bought the pro app... Sadly not.

Doesn't seem to be a way to change audio tracks or subtitle tracks. 2 functions that are pretty basic and much needed.

Most full featured app for vr movies. It can handle any format of vr movie I have encountered. Would reccomend.

It's a good app. But lack of orientation rotation function. Once disable orientation . Unable to manually rotate it.

I liked the free version so I immediately bought the pro version but it had not worked. Pro version doesn't launch, only free version opens.

Does not play speex audio inside a video. This app sucks if you try opening a flv video file thru Lan network. App does not even show as an option for open with.

by C####:

I paid for this pro version in hopes that it would let me put in url's to watch videos from youtube at least (since the free version didn't let me) but even this one didn't let me watch any video, it would take the video url but it would stay as a black screen and nothing would play, I am very unhappy that this app isn't working with the url option. Not sure if it's because it doesn't support my samsung but I hope this gets fixed or that someone tells me why it isn't working.

by C####:

All I want is a side by side player that lets me look around 360 videos with the arrow keys on my keyboard or gamepad. The term KB and gamepad support makes me think this is a feature but it's not. You can just pause rewind etc with em. Please add this feature.

I wouldn't mind some options to improve performance when watching high-res stuff.

I'm using VR Player Pro on my Galaxy S5 device. Videos play amazingly well. I'm glad there's an option to reset the camera position. But it rarely drifts (something that happened often in the AAA VR Cinema). There's no lag. And it's played virtually every file I've put on it! EDIT: They've replied to my review and the VR Menu now works! The only thing I could suggest to make this any better is a seek function for the VR Menu like the one in the YouTube 360 app :)

M70%
by M####:

Please fix! This app was great but is basically useless to me in its current state. *Update: I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but I am still unable to play files from a USB drive and my Bluetooth mini game pad still doesn't work aside from the back button. Is there a way to map the remote buttons so it will work again? It looks to be set correctly but doesn't work during playback. Thanks!

E70%
by E####:

Great on paper, except that cellphones' head tracking ability is far from perfect, and I can't get the thing to read inputs from a USB device. I use my OTG cable to connect my keyboard or gamepad, both of which work outside the video player (even to navigate the menus within the app!) But I can't use those things to actually reorient the video player when the head tracking inevitably drifts. Fix this and it's 5 stars.
