Love this. Between this and Wooorld, I don't need Google Earth natively on Quest. My biggest complaint is I really wish there was an option to follow head tracking... meaning pushing forward to move would go in the direction I'm facing (like a FPS game). Without it I get woozy fairly quick.
First impressions. Having been a very happy user of Google Earth VR for a while now I have only recently become aware of standalone apps using Google imagery that don't require a fairly high end PC to operate. I first tried Earthquest, which is slightly awkward to get running and needs a Google account to obtain something called an API key. This app is my most recent acquisition in the same field. The main advantage of this one is that it works straight away, and that is a huge difference for anyone who isn't particularly tech savvy. Also the controls for flying around are better on this one. However, I have found the image quality on Earthquest to be significantly better as it has settings adjustment for these factors. Earthquest also has Google Street View integration, which this one doesn't have (at time of writing). Both apps are priced at £3.99, which is very reasonable considering I paid £1000 for the laptop I use for running Google Earth VR. The full Google offering is still very much King of this domain however, with far superior graphics quality, but both this app and Earthquest are very much worthwhile alternatives for constrained budgets.
We want to use It not.only in english. Hello! I'd like to use It without the need to change the system language to english and to have to restart my quest 3 every time! It's a amazing app except for this.Please repair It! Thanks.
Promising start. Needs a Quest 3 update to resolution, cache could be bigger as well for higher resolution assets and to further visibility (high resolution textures fall away reasonably close to the assets) but it's a good start. Runs well, maybe offer some texture/display controls in the app.
Does not work on my headset. The flight to the chosen destination never ends. No matter what I try, I can't see anything. My Internet connection is fine. 3 stars because I still hope for a solution
Does not work. Game cant downloaded the destination where i want :(
The app is stuck at the map loading screen, then nothing happens.
Update: no i have no internet connection issue, everything is working exept this app which does not load any map, i'm stuck with this pink bubble floating above some blue low res ground, i've waited more than ten minutes several times and nothing happens.

Library of Realities.comレビュー:.AnyWRは、QuestでGoogle Earth VR体験を提供することに最も近づいたが、モバイルMeta Questプロセッサーの制限のため、フラットスクリーンのコンピューターモニター上のGoogle Earthと比較した場合、その体験はお勧めできるほど良いものではなく、間違いなくGoogle Earth VRには遠く及ばない。グラフィックのディテールを制限することで、移動や回転をスムーズにできるかもしれないが、その代償として視覚的な忠実さが損なわれている。建物のテクスチャ、自然の風景、3次元のモデルは、あなたがそれらに近づくまで、妥当なレベルの細部まで解像しない。見る位置を地面から十分に高くすると、地形は地平線まで描画されなくなる。風景の移動は、至近距離では速すぎ、数マイル以上の地形をカバーしようとすると遅すぎることがある。メニューにダイナミックスピードオプションが用意されているが、その使用は限られたものであった。また、ジョイスティックを前に押しても、見ている方向には移動せず、アプリ内の最初の位置の方向に移動する。良い点としては、コントローラーの移動ボタンのマッピングが楽しい。バーチャルリアリティでの世界探索を熱望するQuestのオーナーは、AnyWRに価値を見出すことができるだろう。また、ユーザーインターフェースの改善や、Meta Quest 3の機能アップを利用したグラフィックの改善など、さらなる開発が進めば、AnyWRはいつの日か、Questプラットフォーム上でGoogle Earth VRに代わる有力な選択肢となるかもしれない。完全なレビューはLibrary of Realities.comをご覧ください。✅ Google Earth VRに最も近いクエスト。✅ 価格が4.99ドルと安いので、試してみる価値がある。❌ グラフィックはフラットスクリーンのGoogle Earthほど良くない。❌ ナビゲーションとUIが悪く、探索が制限される。

Library of Realities.com review:. AnyWR have come the closest to providing the Google Earth VR experience on Quest, but because of the limitations of the mobile Meta Quest processor we don't find the experience to be good enough to recommend when compared to Google Earth on a flat-screen computer monitor, and definitely nowhere near as good as Google Earth VR.
Constraints on graphical detail might allow for smoother movement and rotation, but that comes at the cost of visual fidelity. Building textures, natural landscapes and three dimensional models don't resolve to a reasonable level of detail until you're near to them. Raise your your viewing position high enough above the ground and terrain will no longer draw as far as the horizon.
Movement about the scenery can be both too fast at close quarters and far too slow when trying to cover more than a couple of miles of terrain. A dynamic speed option is available in the menu but we had limited success with it - sometimes even close to ground level, movement will suddenly self-adjust to a crawl. Also, pushing forward on the joystick does not move you in the direction you're looking, but instead the direction of your initial position in the app. On a positive note we enjoyed how the movement buttons are mapped out on the controllers.
Quest owners eager for world exploration in virtual reality can surely find value in AnyWR - particularly at its current low price. Also, perhaps with further development that includes an improved user interface and better graphics that utilize the increased capabilities of the Meta Quest 3, AnyWR could one day become a leading alternative to Google Earth VR on the Quest platform.

✅ Closest Quest equivalent of Google Earth VR so far. ✅ Modest $4.99 price makes it worth trying out. ❌ Graphics not as good as flatscreen Google Earth. ❌ Poor navigation & UI restrict exploration.
Real standalone Google Earth experience. This is the first real standalone Google Earth experience in Oculus store, while there's already a similar APP in SideQuest called EarthQuest. So I'll compare these two. Flying is a lot smoother in EarthQuest. The graphics are at about the same level - you can't expect too much on a standalone headset. I like the blue sky background in AnyWR over the MR background in EarthQuest. AnyWR has search function while EarQuest doesn't. Like in some other games with really large maps, there seems to be a limit on how far you can see in anyWR. So when you fly high in the sky, you can't see the horizon beyond that limit. All you can see is the "event horizon" of that limit, which is not ideal. While somehow EarthQuest dosen't have this limit. In Earthquest you can see as far as the edge of the Earth. You pass through buildings and even go under ground in anyWR, which is weird. I think overall EarthQuest offers a better experience mainly because flying is smoother, no sight limit issue and doesn't go under ground. That leaves room for improvements for this APP, and I hope this APP gets better with future updates.
Close experience. I'm excited for this. I have some suggestions. The search UI should be able to be seen the surroundings. There should be a globe so we can see where we are. Also, in the future I hope for street view. Edit: The loading screen being anchored to my head makes me dizzy, and I never even had to get VR legs. Also, the colour scheme is torturous to look at. Maybe blue and white would be better, to reflect the main colour of the Earth.
Slow, Low Res experience with lacking UI. You start by choosing whether to search a location or visit a small selection of countries and even smaller choice of locations.
Visiting a city like San Francisco from the air looks reasonable. The bridge looks twisted and incomplete. When you descend to near street level or street level the scene looks like something from a zombie film. The buildings look like something from The Last of Us.
Flying low to the ground is painfully slow. You are creeping along and button smashing in the hopes you can zoom at a reasonable speed. If you fly high your speed will increase, if you fly ‘too high’ the horizon doesn’t load at all.
You can’t return to menu or your search, at least I haven’t found a button to take me back out from a location, I have to close the app and relaunch to search a new location.
You can’t save locations from what I can see, and at this time it doesn’t appear that you can invite friends to explore locations.
My opinion is that the sales lingo doesn’t measure up to the actual experience.
This app needs to develop a lot more to be something I’d recommend or use. Wander, although street level and perhaps renders just as slow, is a far smoother and welcoming experience with the ability to save and share and have social experiences.
Does not work. The app is stuck at the map loading screen, then nothing happens. Update: no i have no internet connection issue, everything is working exept this app which does not load any map, i'm stuck with this pink bubble floating above some blue low res ground, i've waited more than ten minutes several times and nothing happens...
Not flawless but very good. It's the closest thing to Google Earth with 3D models you can get natively on your Quest. It's still lacking a lot of features, bit I've spent a lot of time just flying over the modelled cities and enjoying the view. Not perfect but I expect the devs to improve it with time. Still, even in it's current state it's worth the asking price.
Potential is there. Pretty cool app. Graphics resolution is about what you’d expect. I wish there was a way to speed up the movement so that I could navigate over an area a little faster.
It could be great, given time. This is not Google Earth VR - but it uses Google mapping data to produce a similar 3D mapping terrain that you can 'fly' over. AnyWR certainly shows potential. I picked it up to support the developer. The resolution is noticeably lower than Google Earth and it took an age to 'fly' anywhere. The search function doesn't let you pin point a specific address (but it seemed to pull up city by name). It's the closest thing to Google Earth VR (at least natively on the Quest) but it needs a lot of work - even background music would be nice at this point. :)
Fingers crossed it gets better - and I'm certain it will.
A great start. It's early days for this app but I think it has potential. Really enjoyed visiting a few places. Granted, at street level the graphics leave something to be desired but stay 'up and above' and it looks very good indeed. I like the Wander app but this offers something different and as I don't have a PC powerful enough for PCVR I'm interested to see how this develops. I'd like to request that the speed adjustment is remembered so that you don't have to set it every time. And it's priced at less than the cost of a pint! Well done Devs, keep at it. Thank you
