Great app to explore

I have the wander app and I have enjoyed that but I wanted something extra and this app gives you the best of both worlds where you can fly above the buildings but also go into street view.The only thing I can’t seem to be able to do is create a private room so I can join others to explore together.Would like to know how this is possible.I tried create a room name and then click create room but there is nowhere in the app to invite someone.That is the only thing that I am frustrated with as on my wander app we can travel together.Apart from that I am really enjoying this app.

Hey!

To explore with friends, simply enter a room name, and tap ‘Create Room’ (Lobby).

Then, anyone may enter that room name and tap ‘Enter Room’, it’s as simple as that!

If you don’t want to explore with friends, simply tap ‘Enter Singleplayer’ instead 👍

Being able to explore with strangers without any invitations is something that could be added in future updates, but right now it would increase server cost exponentially, which would be a bad business decision with the current pricing aimed to be as low as possible. It would only be safe by increasing the price appropriately or hiding the functionality behind a paywall, which won’t make everyone happy...

Please update your review after getting to explore with anyone you like!

If there’s anything I can help with, please let me know in the community so I may respond ASAP! ( contact.earthquest.site )

Enjoy 🌍!

Must-Have Quest Experience

If you have any interest in maps, history, culture, geography, or travel - which should be everyone, really - this is a must-have app. I tried a few others in the Google Earth genre, and initially I did prefer another one more due to the navigation style. However, I quickly determined this one is the best, and after making the switch, I got used to the navigation style very quickly and now I prefer it.

Graphics settings offer a lot of customization so you can dial in performance. I recommend looking into graphics optimization methods for the quest - I did, and it helped with stability overall, which was a Quest limitation and not the developer's.

The developer is eager to improve the app, with regular updates and proactively reaching out to users to solicit feedback and suggestions. I'd support the app just for that reason, but it also happens to offer the best experience of similar apps.

I spend hours listening to music or a podcast or audio book and flying around the world, seeing 3d landscapes that sometimes look very close to actual panoramic views. For example, while listening to a book about Capt Cook's search for a northwest passage, I could follow along with his island-hopping journey and see each up close.

This is more of a necessary utility app than a game experience. It is educational, enriching, and allows users to experience a hint of what it would be like to travel to places we may never get to or want to visit, explore history and diverse cultures, and experience the geography of our planet like never before.

My faviroute app

This is absolutely my faviroute map/world viewer in vr. It has access to street view like you would expect, however the world comes alive when flying around and seeing the world in 3D.

Houses, trees, skyscrapers, the best way to experience them is in vr.

Controls are intuitive, and there are lots of options for preferences.

Highly recommend, a steal for the price!

One of the best creations of all time!

OK so I've had a quest for around 3 years (Quest 2 and now Quest 3). Earthquest (EQ) is hands down my favourite thing to use!

I suggest you get EQ AI as an additional purchase - this makes an already incredible exploration tool even better. If you want to know what you're looking at then just ask! If you want to port to somewhere instantly - ask ai! It's not just AI for EQ either - you can ask it literally anything about anything! Blows my mind!

I'm looking forward to future updates - especially around more places being 3D modelled!

Love it

I have a blast in this app I just wish for the next update please mark locations where you can enter buildings and such. Especially for high tourist areas. That would be amazing cause flying around and keeping an eye on the pov lense is slightly annoying. Other then that love it.

Music

Good game and everything else is perfect but, The music isent really good to explore to, It seems sad or just doesn’t have a fun vibe, I know there’s a turn music off but a un copyright playlist is probably Kevin Macleods songs, there good mood songs. Other then that perfect game just like google earth
