With the introduction of darn-cheap headsets like Cardboard, VC billions and massive community support, Virtual Reality is finally coming to life – at least on mobile. Want to build a hit app? Check out our best VR Android apps list to get inspired!
Top 5 best VR apps for Android
2016 was a turning point for iOS/Android app development companies. The unexpected success of Pokémon Go ($ 950 million in revenue) and face-morphing applications marked a curious change in consumer preferences. Tired of endless runners and meaningless Candy Crush clones, smartphone owners are longing for new technologies – and that’s where Virtual Reality comes in handy.
Virtual vs Augmented Reality: who’s winning the mobile game? Although all of our best VR mobile apps for Android support Google Cardboard, the headset is somewhat inferior to its plastic rivals. With the prices for a high-quality HMD ranging[3] from $ 100 (Daydream) to $ 3 thousand (Microsoft HoloLens), Virtual Reality still has a barrier to entry. Augmented Reality, a smart technology that places 2D/3D graphics on top of a smartphone camera feed, can be embraced by 1.5 billion people – that’s the number of smartphones shipped through 2016. As a result, AR investments will outstrip VR by 300% in less than 3 years. Does it mean you should go AR instead? On the contrary, you should target the VR market while the competition is still mild. Besides, users who can spend $ 1 thousand on a dedicated headset are more likely to download a paid application! According to Pavel Shylenok, CTO at R-Style Lab, building a high-quality VR game (or any app which uses the cutting-edge technologies like AR, VR or AI) is a creative process that involves research and non-standard decision-making. Provided you trust your project to an experienced vendor, you’re bound to succeed!
