Ratings and Reviews
Impressive, immersive, and educational VR experience
This is an amazing app! As many others have said, I can’t believe it’s free! The UI takes some getting used to. Essentially any globe can be used as a 180-degree panoramic immersive experience (one at a time), with the resolution depending on the map. You can have any number of globes in your virtual space and make them be as big as you want. I’m running the VisionOS 2 preview, so perhaps that’s it, but I found that unless I have one of the globes as a panorama, everything is too dark. When I turn on a panoramic view as an immersive experience, it illuminates the background enough to see everything. It’s almost like you need the panoramic background as a backlight. Once I figured that out, it was fine, but it was a little odd to figure out.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for the feedback. We have not tested Globes with visionOS beta 2 yet. What you report sounds like a bug introduced with the beta.
Unbelievable presentation of the various globes
This app presents these Globes in unbelievable 3-D spatial presentation. You can have several of them floating or use the spatial effect to create a globe that completely surrounds you. I cannot believe that it is free you control the Globes with your hands make them smaller. Move them around great job guys
Deep immersion – – amazing app, but The user should be able to rotate the globes in any direction
The interface on this app is a little bit klutzy. I cannot figure out a way to navigate up and down on the Globes. Hopefully, the app developer will continue to improve this amazing app.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for the feedback. Improving the rotation of globes is on our to-do list.
