Works great with a controller because you can just press the home button from any game to go back to the app, but... It doesn't work. The blue selection circle shows, but there are no apps unless I restart it. And then it happens again. Also, would be nice to have a 3 dimensions option instead of the 2 dimensional timeline selection. Works well when it works though.

It started great but I also see it listed all of the Gear vR apps as well.. like MilkVR and Netflix VR... but I couldn't obviously start those... what gives? Also... the app keeps appearing missing icons... I had to restart the app to get the icons back.

Couldn't use it. Can't even begin the list of problems encountered despite high end device and expensive vr headset. Needs a lot of work for smooth experience. As one of the reviewers pointed, whoever gets an app like this to work well will be king!

A start I suppose. Oculus home has the correct feel and interface. Full 360 with floating apps. This is a line of apps. No comparison, Im afraid. Someone needs to port/create/develop a clone of the oculus home app for cardboard with full customization. So far no-one has. VR still has a way to go before a fully interactive launch environment is available. Whoever gets that right first will be a king. If you can make a fully VR homescreen version of your android device to be able to select apps then that will be even better. I still have to remove my headset when I exit from CB or Oculus to be able to switch between the two. Keep up the good work though, I wish I could write SW instead of wishing for what I can dream up! :-)

Does Exactly what I need it for, a home screen for cardboard apps! Smooth and clean interface. Well made.
