It is so freaking cool that I built it a box out of janga box, and I put the phone in, and it was the goodest experience ever. And I never had a v r heads that, so I got to use this

Still remember when this first came out. Got it for the Simpsons experience. The cardboard viewers were given out free through alot of different websites. Either google them or google the DIY. Other option is an actual VR headset.

I love the whole idea of Google cardboard and YouTube vr and daydream that ran on android 11 I wish they would bring back all of it. Don't know why this idea didn't get recognition

Completely useless. The app has a short demo and that's it. Won't let me install any additional apps or features. Seems like it has even less functionality now than it used to.

Trash as hell, every time I want to go to videos viewer I need to remove the phone from the headset enter the video viewer and then put it back on! And when I try to go back to the headset, BOOM! IT PUTTED ME TO THE MAIN MENU AND THE BRIGHTNESS WAS LIKE VERY HIGH. I'M UNINSTALLING

I couldn't get the app to work because you have to get an official Google cardboard viewer, and then scan the QR code it comes with. It won't work at all without a QR code. Uninstalled.
