Garbage. After it downloads all of its"assets," which obviously requires an internet connection, it says there is no internet connection when I try to do anything. Don't waste the ram or memory card space to download it.
It was not that helpful. I mean, it was kinda cool, but i downloaded it for a school assignment and it did not take me to the virtual assignment i had. Others might like it, but i didnt.
Nothing but a black screen after giving camera permissions. Absolutely useless.
Keeps saying no internet even though I can SEE the device connected. Won't play comtent.
Couldn't even get it to work, but underscored an existential moment where I'm mad that I can't see a Beef ad in AR.
its virtical when its not suppose to be
Isengod said too
It stopped using the phone camera, even with full permissions set. This needs to be fixed so it can work on more devices.
Tapping everywhere does nothing. Holding down does nothing. Wanted to see EW Dove ad come to life, but app doesn't work.
Just wouldn't work. Tried it for the Steven Universe magazine cover, didn't register anything nor respond.
It won't focus and there isn't a button to hit scan. It just really doesn't work nor does it make sense. Do you tap the little frame to get it to work? Do you just hope it'll scan the picture (ie, Steven Universe cover) and hope for the best? This is a very wonderful idea, but not well developed. Please improve.
Like others it simply does not work. I feel like returning the magazine since the augmented reality was the only reason I got it.
While it would be great to use, main issue is the app won't allow the camera to focus so it's not able to scan correctly
Took forever to download, and when I used it on the entertainment weekly mag, nothing happened. Lame.
It doesn't scan anything no matter how hard you tap. Magazines shouldn't advertise this if it isn't gonna work.
Didn't work.. made me sad, I wanted to see the Steven Universe ad :/
Doesn't work no matter what you do. Very disappointed.
Big failure did not scan July's cover
It doesn't scan, there is no button, it does nothing.
There is no scan button. Tried it on the Steven Universe Dove Entertainment Magazine ad.
Doesn't do anything. Instructions are poor.
Saw the reviews... tried it any way... doesnt scan... what a bummer.
Does nothing
Would not scan
Doesn't do anything. No response to any clicks
Worked great til recently. Now no video works 360 on my new Samsung S9.
Content is great quality, but the app did not work with a cardboard and pixel phone. The images are not correctly aligned for this configuration
Only got 1 pic to work and even then was not impressed with what I saw.
Doesn't work at all, camera is just a black screen even after I give it camera permissions and every time I try to open one of the experiences it says there is no network even when I'm connected to WiFi. Please fix this app.
