Very good…

I’ve enjoyed Blue Planet since I first got it on Steam VR. Glad to have it here as well.
Many scenes. Well captured. Some have a nice amount of space to move around, and some active elements.
Wahweap doesn’t seem to exist, even if you go to as the next scene.
Other than that, very good.
All apps should allow you to access and play the music in your “shared music folder”.

Excellent exploration app! Beautiful!

Excellent way to explore! Lots of content. Can move around in each area and look all around. Even better when paired with Quest Game Optimizer.

Blue Planet VR

Incredible. I wish I could give this more than 5 stars. It's that good. Everything works perfectly. Stunning. Spectacular. Mind blowing. I got the expanded edition. Worth it. I had hesitations. Finally got it. Exceeded expectations. All worries gone.
Brink VR has an added virtual environment for meta Quest. It is Horseshoe Bend River. Would Blue Planet VR ever include a virtual environment for meta Quest? I imagine that it would be a pretty good one if that ever happens.

Disappointed

Purchased the whole bundle, but only have access to about 45 locations. Cannot access other packs above, says touch to download but unable to do so. Tried uninstall and reinstall, as suggested in another review, without success. Feel like i have been ripped off to be honest. New user here, not happy.

Tried to access refund, have watched literally three locations for about 15 mins usage, purchased only a few days ago, but says im not eligible for refund.

Do not purchase, would be my recommendation.

Please provide a bit more information so we can assist, when you touch the download, does it provide any status on downloading? Does it make an interaction sound? What headset and OS version? The app runs without error normally, so this sounds unusual. Please message Meta on the refund issue, that sounds erroneous on their end. Will of course try to address the install problem, please email info@blueplanetvr.com.

Great experience!!

Purchased with the expansion pack bundle. Base app works great and really enjoying the experience especially hang gliding! Much fun!!
Loaded fully(all 10) the first expansion pack but it still says touch to download. The spheres sometimes don’t work or there is a delay when I touch.

Biggest problem is the other expansion packs won’t load. I have plenty of space available. When I try to touch for download my hand just goes through, no beep or other feedback that there is a problem of some kind.
Hope you can reply and give some guidance. Currently stuck!
I did try rebooting headset, no help.
Did not uninstall yet.

7/9 update
Problems fixed with uninstall and reinstall. Be careful of WiFi connection drops during download. All good now!
Amazing VR App!!

Thanks!

Poorly designed

I really wanted to like this app. The locations are pretty decent. However the quality of photogrammetry content is poor. Still not as bad as the interaction navigation and bugs in the app.

Shiblee, can you specify what bugs you experienced-
