Playground Customer Insights

1. It's pointless if you can't resize and place the objects where you need them...TURN ON ANIMATION IF YOU CAN'T RECORD VIDEO!!! For those that can't record using playground.

2. But need some improvements like making a pause in middle of shooting video, need to adjust the stickers spot while using front camera instead of it adjusting by its own.

3. The actual interface isn't consistent with the Google Camera app, and instead opts for a less intuitive Snapchat-style look: from how it records video to even redundantly rounding the corners of the screen.

4. Now without this feature, everything it cluttered and jumpy and now not as good as what it was.I liked it when it was stickers... It was easier to place the sticker in a location and by pinching, you would be able to select the size that you wanted.

5. For those who cannot record videos probably you have animations turned off under Developer Options > Animator duration scale, change it back to 1x and you'll be able to record again.

6. Knocking some stars down since there is no occlusion mapping like the images in promos and articles suggest.Cannot figure out how to resize the AR objects.

7. Is the occlusion in the promo images just doctored? Was not able to get people to occlude AR content in photos, which makes for some really wonky overlap.

8. What's the point of a still-shot? Isn't video like a key component?An amazing feature, but hindered by UI performance and inconsistency.

9. I'll give 5 stars when the problem is fixed.Pretty cool, nice emojis, and the interface for editing is pretty intuitive.

10. We were able to scan then move to a different room and start recording and walk into the scanned room ans everything would be there perfectly.

11. The AR itself however, is impressive and exceeded expectations.Everyone: you can still record videos.
