SideloadVR for GearVR
SideloadVR builds custom GearVR .apks that include the user's signature file. This means that developers can share their ideas without going through Oculus Home and the global signing process.
SideloadVR is built on the idea of an open system, where developers can freely share their content with an extended tester user base.

I would like to thank the developer for this free app, I imagine the time and effort needed to support such an app. I was hoping to load my gear vr apps with my Homido v2 headset but this app sadly doesn't work with the s8+ yet. Hopefully it gets an update to support it.
Decent app, it works as long as you follow the instructions properly when you first start the app. I'm using a Galaxy S9 and it works for me despite the warning saying it probably won't. Some of the apps don't work but that's to be expected given the nature of them.
Galaxy S8/Oreo. Works great for me despite the description saying there's not official support yet. Thanks for creating this! (To access without removing your headset, you can use the Labs section of Phonecast)
Rockin this on s8. For now it doesnt work beacuse of oreo update, so Im waiting. Great idea for an app Mark. Cant wait for s8 support. Have a good one, bro
Developer lives in stone age as are all the poor people who can't afford a recent Sammy flagship and use outdated bezel junk phones. Latest S9 is out still no support for S8.
Although it works. The automatic apk signing is dodgy so I use apk Editor and do it manually. And it still hasn't been updated to recognise the Galaxy S8 Plus and S8.
10min cycle trip, +20min trying to find somewhere to park it away. Nearly chucked the thing in the Thames! Map on kiosk incorrectly describes where the nearest stands are... do people seriously put up with this disastrous service?
I have a galaxy s9+ it says it's not compatible and won't let me set up.
0 stars until you update it to add galaxy s8. I can't give it less than one star in Google play, zero stars for Google play as well! Add my phone and I'll review this app a bit better.
Used to work on and off on my GS7 edge, but now it won't install anything. Is adds it to bookmarks and then closes the download when it hits 100/150. I use both the S8 and Note8. Has not even been updated with Note8 support.
Very unstable, lots of random crashes. Unable to download and install some apps. E.g. VR stream always stops and closes at 100/150
I just started using vr technology and I found this app, it's amazing that you have developers that give you a decent quality app or game for free thanks to this distribution app.
My S8+ won't work so till that gets fixed one star sorry
You must be updating or checking the apps because most of them say download unavailable and the osig link going to oculus is wrong but I did get my signal file from gear vr and this app does validate it but no apps to download kinda useless to have this app.
This works great on my S8. Just been playing DoomVr which is awesome. Thanks Mark for making this available
No S9 support? I can understand that; it's a new phone. No S8 support? That's pretty unacceptable after this long. If I didn't know better I'd say the developer had abandoned the app. What a shame
Don't know what everyone is crying about, this worked fine on my S8+. 4 stars for the great app and an extra star because I like the developers attitude towards stupid comments. Read the description people...
I hope you update the app with support for the N8 soon mate. Loved this app on my S7 edge
Needs to expand compatibility. Otherwise I guess it's a great platform but the people on that platform should also expand compatibility.
Was excellent with the note 7 and s7 edge, can't wait until my new note 8 is supported!
It crashed any time I tried to search something.
Most 1 star reviews are people who can't read the unsupported devices. Great dev.
Crashed every time I clicked the search bar.
No support for the s8 plus which was disappointing. Couldn't even find my OSIG.
(READ DESCRIPTION PEOPLE) Says doesn't work YET with S8 (PLUS) stop giving bad reviews!
Can't wait till s8 support. Will make 5 star ones it happens.
deserves more than 5 stars, i hope this project will continue thanks
Used this with my S6 and absolutely loved it, enough to pay for it if it was an option even. I then updated to the S8+ and it won't even load. From what i have seen, the dev is aware of the issue and rather than admit that other things take priority, chooses to belittle people who wonder why there is no S8+ support. I really want to rate it higher but can't with how disappointed I am in both the product and the developer.
