ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
If you are using a VR headset, please scan its QR code by tapping the small white gear icon at the bottom middle of your screen to ensure you get the best visual experience in virtual reality. If your headset didnt come with a QR code, try searching for your headsets model name and "QR" on the internet.
This app supports smartphones, tablets, and both "no-touch" style VR headsets such as the original Google Cardboard and newer "tap" style headsets such as Google Cardboard V2. If you dont have a button on your headset, look down at the blue gear icon when the app begins and then tap the "change to gaze mode" option before putting your phone into your headset.
If you have a 4" iPhone, you may achieve a better visual experience by placing a pencil or similar-sized object inside your headset in order to better align the center of the your phones screen with the headsets lenses.
