Nothing happens when you need to move the phone in circles to detect a flat surface. The app just freezes there and the only thing I can do is force close it.
Fantastic use of AR technology for education. So cool being able to view detailed, 3d models of spacecraft in your own home. I was really surprised how well it worked. Can't wait to see more added in the future!
Pretty cool way to visualize spacecraft! Works decently well on my old little Samsung A5, surprised how big ingenuity was! Though I guess it totally makes sense since it was dropped off by a SUV sized rover. Looking forward to seeing Dragonfly when it's mission is ready!
Fun, but hard to navigate to alternative spacecraft (eg. launch vehicles) & exit from. I have to resort to putting phone into screen saver mode or restarting to get back to other menus!
Cool idea, but dies every time it tries to find a surface on S10+. Displays camera, back, and profile icons over black screen and freezes.
Love you 3000 I also wana be come to nasa one day it's like my dream from my childhood because you all together do thing wich some day felt like dreams like going to space and moon. Thins thing I like the most in nasa that everything is possible but with solid science and eyes full of dreams.. I have a request plz add James web telescope to the app. Again thanks alot to inspire me.
Does not work on Samsung phones. Worked on earlier Pixel. It’s WONDERFUL on the right android. A brilliant educational tool.
The app doesn't work. It gets stuck on the "move your phone around in circles" screen.
Perfect app to let you see the real size of the Mars rovers! Wish they'd make the "Full Size" option for all vehicles, even the ISS!
Not working. I know what is about,since Google came up with virtual athletes during Tokyo's Olympics, but the screen here stays black. Realme7 pro, android version 11. Hope to edit my rating asap.
Well this is an awesome app at first then when I picked the rover section, I wanted to turn off my camera. It would be better with settings.
Wow!!!, this app is amazing. Lovely AR version of many rockets, rovers, satellite etc. Totally loved it.
no chance to find horizontal, you just move with your phone in circles like an idiot
It's great I have suggestions maybe make it not pasted over the camera but over the local area so it doesn't move when you are moving
Moto x4 Android One 4gig, waving around on all sorts of horizontal surfaces, never able to get it to work
Guys, Samsung s21+. I've selected a mission and got a black screen.
Great app for sure,hopefully they will add some more models,work fine.
Informative and interesting and interactive
Does not work on Galaxy Note 8. Just an endless loop of "move your phone in circles".
Does not work. Just keeps showing to move you phone in circles.
Annoying. Gets stuck looking for a horizontal surface. Fail.
I am not giving this app 5 stars because my camera will not focus when using the app. Other than that it works
I can finally use this app now that I have a new phone. So cool to see the new rover in my living room!
Spacecraft AR is my favourite Augmented Reality application. I am regularly using this tool as part of the Augmented Reality demonstration during my workshop session. I am creating a awareness about this tool more than 10 to 15 workshop participants. I love this tool. Thank you.
Worked on Pixel 2. Not on Pixel 6. Time to update the app!!!
Incredible! Wish it had sounds too. And more models! JPL rules!
All you do is place an object and snap a photo. Pointless app!
All i got was moving your in circles i have a samsung s20 come on NASA you can people into space but you cant sort an app out really sad
I have an S10 with Android 10 and the app doesn't work!! After selecting the mission and the vehicle, I'm supposed to see everything in 3d with the camera, but I can't. The screen stays black and it asks me to "move the phone around in circles until the app detects a horizontal surface". It never finds such "surface". Then, I downloaded a pdf with images of rocks to see if that worked, but again, it didn't. It really is a shame.
