Really impressed with the quality of the videos. I have only tried 360 vids but I'm sure that in full VR it's even better! Just needs more content updates as the library is a bit stale. The UI isn't perfect either can take a while to find an artist you want to listen to.
Great potential hence the 5 stars but I have some suggestions. There needs to be search bar for artists, not just scrolling down to look at each one. A wishlist is essential and would generate more revenue. Amazon know this. Access to every old show is also a must eg I would have paid for the Liam Gallagher show but it's not on there now. I genuinely believe these 3 things are essential and will more than pay for themselves with increased sales.
Very good concept, let down by the inability to download to a device for viewing offline. A webpage would be good and an option to download a hardcopy with a set view or audio only. Not great you pay for something then the app advices the device can no longer play on your device.
When you have the right VR Headset, the experience is immense!!! As a huge festival fan I know only too well that NOTHING beats the real thing. However, if my favourite band are playing in Australia and I have the opportunity to put on a headset and watch them from my living room, I will take that as a close second. I love what this company are trying to do.
__Question: "The video seems to have slow frame rate [frame rate like the beat of a song]. Is that just my phone? Youtube 360° has smooth frame rate (with 720 (my phone's resolution))." __Responce: "Due to the ultra high quality of our content, to get the best experience through the MelodyVR app, mobile devices work best if they provide 4k HEVC playback. Our content is able to be viewed on some devices at a lower playback resolution, but the viewing experience won't be as great."
They really need to bring cross platforming as currently you can can't watch your content on both mobile and Oculus which is ridiculous! There's a few concerts I'd like to buy but the fact you can only watch on the platform you buy it on means I'm not going to buy them. Also they should have a way to switch off the VR movement when you want and have manual movement so you dont have to hold the phone upright all the time
It just annoying cause you have to keep repositioning your phone too see different people its far easier and more enjoyable just to watch a video lol. However if I had the virtual headset for my phone then the experience would be so good 👍
A fantastic glimpse into the future of music. Exciting times. Only criticism is when I press back on my mobile I expect it to let me leave the app instead of having to force close it.
I love this app so much. I'm updating my review as this week I watched Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes. This show was a technical masterpiece and I could have cried when I saw the look on Frank's face; looking up at all the fan's faces on the stage invasion screens! The tech is evolving and the performers are developing their shows to maximise what this medium has to offer. Great stuff MVR. Looking forward to Liam Gallagher now!!
Downloaded this app yesterday after seeing it on TV. Tried to use it this morning for a GMA concert. It worked fine for the preconcert interview, but as soon as the concert started, I had a black screen and kept getting a message saying retry.
Truly amazing. Truly immersive. Go back stage with your favourite artist. Stand on stage. In the crowd. Streams perfectly even without wifi. Sounds a million dollars. Cant wait for more acts and more live shows to be announced. Please link up Oculus and mobile app libraries so I dont have to buy gigs twice. Other than that faultless.
Wow this app is great! Feels like you're on the stage with the band. Lots of concerts to choose from and looks like they're adding all the time. Big thumbs up!
Watched Fall Out Boy. I enjoyed some of it, but there were so many buffering issues, I couldn't get fully immersed. The app crashed twice.
this is amazing!!!! i've never seen anything like it. great sound and picture quality and live the ability to move around the venue
Excellent. Transport yourself to the centre of a live music concert from the comfort of your own home. Fast, stable and responsive live streaming. This is the new Spotify. #EVRH
Something went wrong... code 400 error on startup. Tried to delete cache and reinstall app with same result. So it doesn't even open.
Absolutely outstanding technology. I cannot believe something so futuristic is available in our lifetime! 10/10 would recommend over and over again!
Great app. Only reason I've given 4 stars is that I haven't been able to try the full VR experience yet but will definitely be investing. So much better than just watching the equivalent on TV
Simply wow, great to see the artists so close and with the live music, truly a great experience.
Just refuses to login. I have changed the password repeatedly in an attempt to rectify this, deleted and reinstall but nothing works. I just bought Liam Gallagher tickets and are starting to panic!
Amazing way to experience the music. Looking forward to live shows and more content.
This was advertised on TV as a free app and to have the ability to watch concerts for free. Now after you join, it appears that you have to purchase the concerts. This appears to be false advertising.
Useless on my Moto G6 phone. Said my phone not supported when I tried various free videos . Had great difficulty simply exiting the app to return to my front screen.
Unbelievably AWESOME app! great experience for all artists, best experience for your favourite thanks to jump spots.
Tried this app for the first time for the GMA Kane Brown and Marshmallow concert. It continuously froze, jumped cameras without making the selection and then just gave error messages and dumoed out. Maybe strengthen the network before a live event nationally advertised on network television...definitely not ready for the traffic.
This is the Future, I can now immerse myself into the Gigs or Shows in Total VR or 360 view on my smartphone. Great app and losts of popular Artists for a new app. A1 Guys.
Truly immersive 21st century technology. To have this type of experience right now at the tips of your fingers is unbelievable. Melody going places
I downloaded yesterday & I saw part of a Kelly Clarkson concert. I tried today to see GMA live New York Central Park show & got a message my phone wasn't compatible. Not a good app for me.
Had reservations about this app thinking it couldn't be as good as they make out. How wrong I was, its brilliant. Definitely a worthwhile experience A+++++++++
My phone will remote cast to my projector fine, expect when using this app. Unsupported resolution! The app specifically says it can be used to cast to a bigger screen, and yet it doesn't work. I have wasted money on tickets because if this... terrible user experience. My phone is not 'old', and if it's not compatible, there should be a warning or compatibility list.
