Comments on Stereogram for Cardboard 2.0 for Android
★★★★★
Pretty good. My favorite feature is the small size (~5MB). I don't really want anything fancy. The other apps I looked at were over 10x that size. It does still have a sideways drift problem (which can be somewhat counteracted by quickly moving your head a few times in the other direction). IMHO, the apparent distance of the descriptive text at the bottom (nice feature BTW), needs to be adjusted. It seems much closer than the photograph scene. Reading it with one eye closed helps. I was disappointed that the search function only found three images for "Louisiana Purchase Exposition", and only two of those showed up when I searched for "1904 World's Fair". I know that the Library of Congress has hundreds of stereographs of the Fair. But maybe they're not set up to be found easily (e.g., wrong extension).

I'm a stereo freak. My favorite ones are Diableries. This app is easy for me because I'm cheating. Na na na boo boo! I'm using Brian May's invention called The OWL. You can learn about it on the London Stereoscopic Society social media pages or Brian May's social media pages. I can usually free view slides, but not on this app. I noticed a review someone needed help getting slides. You can buy slides, or you can go on social media and collect slides. Just observe copyright laws. Brian May is about to release a Queen in 3D book. I found a history book of the railroads done in stereos at a museum. I'm pretty sure I'm the first person to buy one seeing how happy he was. Best way to make it relevant is to show them these cameras are used now by film makers. It's how they make the 3D version.🙂 Sorry about the length. I couldn't find a way to reply.
★★★★★
This is a great use of the cardboard app! Makes archived photos from the turn of the century accessible at the click of a cardboard button! A great way to look at history!
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work All I get is a black screen. Running on note 3 and note 4 edge
★★☆☆☆
Instant force close. I really like the concept of this but it doesn't work on my g note 2 kit kat 4.4.2. I will re rate if it is fixed.
★★☆☆☆
Great concept, ineffective search. This idea is amazing and I love it! But I want to use it to view stereograms of St. Anthony Falls in Minnesota during the late 1800's and the search doesn't work. I know there are tons of these stereograms in the NYC library system because I can find them on their website but this app fails to pull them up for me to view.
★★☆☆☆
Can't view my own images I made a folder called StereoGallery in the root of my SD card and filled it with .jps files, but it insists there are none.
★★☆☆☆
Can't use magnetic button on cardboard. Really really want to use this app.
