Spacecraft AR Customer Insights

1. I have to resort to putting phone into screen saver mode or restarting to get back to other menus!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.

2. Displays camera, back, and profile icons over black screen and freezes.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.

3. The screen stays black and it asks me to "move the phone around in circles until the app detects a horizontal surface".

4. Looking forward to seeing Dragonfly when it's mission is ready!Nothing happens when you need to move the phone in circles to detect a flat surface.

5. Hope to edit my rating asap.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.

6. The app just freezes there and the only thing I can do is force close it.Cool idea, but dies every time it tries to find a surface on S10+.

7. 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.

8. I know what is about,since Google came up with virtual athletes during Tokyo's Olympics, but the screen here stays black.

9. 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.

10. So cool being able to view detailed, 3d models of spacecraft in your own home.

11. Again thanks alot to inspire me.Does not work on Samsung phones.
