Mobile VR Station® 2024.09

Mobile VR Station is a comprehensive media player designed specifically for Virtual Reality with head tracking capabilities. This app allows users to immerse themselves in a virtual environment where they can view photos, panoramas, videos, and files projected onto a virtual screen that appears to be floating in space. Unlike other similar apps, our Mobile VR Station supports both standard 2D and 3D Side By Side/Over Under content.

It is worth noting, however, that our app is unable to display DRM protected content, such as content purchased from iTunes.

We are honored to receive praise from one of our beta testers, Manuel M, who described our Mobile VR Station as "the most feature-packed VR media player available." He commended its editable profiles, which allow users to adjust the viewing experience across multiple devices and VR adapters.

For users seeking assistance or looking for additional information, we offer convenient links within the app to access our Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube channels.
