Let me start by saying this is the only app Ive gotton to work for me but I have tried every single setting and cannot get the mouse pointer to show up on the phone.... So I'm limited to video streaming. Please help, thanks.

Tried Trinus VR Demo first because of how well known it is. It was laggy as hell and made games like Fallout 4 unplayable. Discovered this app by accident but was a tad put off by the cheap looking logo and the fact that the developer has abandoned support for it. Tried the demo and realised what an absolute gem this app is. After a very simple set-up the app works. A couple of tweaks later to the head tracking feature and I'm playing Mirror's Edge in style. This is easily one of the best and most valuable VR apps for your phone. It's a must buy without question. Don't be put off by the lack of developer support: after all why should he/she need to fix something that works this well?! Trinus for £6.99 or this for £1.35? It's a no brainer really.

I'm sure this is a good app for people that are looking for this kind of app, but it's not for me. Can I get a refund?

Thanks i bought this to support u guys. Very awesome and smooth streaming my pc screen. I can't see my mouse pointer. How can I enable an option to see my mouse pointer on the screen? This would enable me to where I don't have to take my glasses off

My plastic goggles came today, been trying to get a vr streaming app to work for hours. The competition all have major lag for me (Galaxy s6, no gear vr yet). I installed this app, set it up in seconds, and BAM!, vr on my phone. The tracking modes seem easy and effective so far. I was starting to wonder if this vr thing was going to work out for me at all, then I found these guys. Keep up the good work!

by Y####:

This is the easiest app to play games on using your vr goggles but the head tracking is limited. What I mean by limited is that it won't turn all the way so you're limited to turning your head. I haven't found a solution to this problem and I emailed the dev some time ago but no response. You should definitely purchase this app if you want an easy to use vr headset streamer kind of thing.

Very stable and good quality, but I can not configure it for my Durovis Dive 7 with the Display Padding set up, Is there a way to do it?? I do not see lens correction, individual config for each lens,please add this or do you have the correct values for Headset lens?? Hope to see you soon... Thanks anyway.

Y70%
by Y####:

Whatever is good about this software (ie speed and ease of connectivity) is useless without the means of configuring the phone display for different headsets. There are no adjustment options whatsoever. I notice the developers have stopped responding to feedback a year ago, so it seems they have stopped supporting this. Pity

The steroscopic mode is not "curved" like in other apps. Runs Minecraft perfect for about 30 seconds and then lags horribly even though its still 60FPS and using 170,000 bytes MAX. Other games like Project Cars it runs amazing, may just be certain games that don't work well with it. Galaxy Note 5 - PC specs: i7-4790k GTX970 24GB RAM

Best app for this purpose I've used so far other apps required me to use GeForce and that's too expensive for me I'm not able to use free pie head tracking but the absolute mouse option seems to work the best for me right now I just need to work on reducing latency between my S7 and my PC I will continue to configure the head tracking and sensitivity as best I can great job on the app hope to see future improvements also can't quite get the perfect screen resolution and aspect ratio perfect yet.

I've done a lot of testing with many different apps and many different games, your search ends here, this is the one you want. Don't waste your money on Trinius, VR Streamer works great with heaps of modern games (GTA 5, Project Cars, Assetto Corsa etc.) with good resolution. Highly recommend!

excellent. tethered worked great with a smooth consistent framerate. stable software. good price. to me this is the best diy hmd solution right now.

It would be cool to see this integrated with Moonlight, even tho we can already use both together without any mention of this as a display mode on the app.

Z70%
by Z####:

This app is amazing the only problem i have is that headtracking doesnt work on all games , such as Portal and Kholat where you can just watch the game without using headtracking

Y70%
by Y####:

I found this program by accident but I tried the demo and liked what I saw, when using wifi can be a little glitchy got a better router seem to fix the problem and you can also do tethering which is a huge plus and it runs very smooth, the only request I would have is that they put a setting that allows you to place a black trim around screen due to some video games having health bars in lower corners this will help make them visible, overall I give it four stars, you guys keep up the good

S70%
by S####:

This is a great app for the price. The streaming quality is better than expected over TCP. Only problem I am having is with the headtracking either being glitchy, or simply not working. However, once that is worked out, this will be a 5 star app, for sure. Excellent Job :)

L70%
by L####:

Great app, very cool. Latency via TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) comparable to other apps + the option to change quality. The real seller is that it offers USB Debugging to stream to your phone + the option to force stereoscopic mode. It is super easy to setup. I was going to program something like this, but available time and experience made the investment too much. This is just what I was looking for.

V70%
by V####:

This is definitely the app i was looking for, but i am having some issues. The "tracking mode" drop down is greyed out so I can't turn it on. Even tried installing free pie and it still won't let me select anything from the menu. Also the streaming seems to stop whenever I place my note 4 into the gear vr headset. I am bypassing the usb. Is there another sensor that would trigger that. It's not the home button being pressed because it goes back to the apps home, not the phones homescreen.

I paid but still streaming so slow... Specially to movies...

R70%
by R####:

The crowning strength of this app is being able to stream through different mediums. It also streams perfectly with fullscreen content. The downside is that, as far as I could see, the headtracking is glitchy or just flat-out doesn't work. Fix that and 5 stars all around.

R70%
by R####:

This is the best app for VR available, streaming from my pc using theter usb was a breeze to setup and the performance was impressive, couldn't manage to get tracking to work (but hey it could had been me or the game) but I used opentrack with no problems and manage to play elite dangerous and have a very similar experience as with the oculus rift... for an initial release this was an impressive work.... Keep it up.
