Hologo

Thank you for the update, which allows people to sample some of the material. Before I couldn’t sample anything to know what the full version might be like. This time I downloaded the elephant, the animal cell, and the coliseum to try out. The elephant looked great, and I could see younger students especially enjoying having the animal “eat”, “walk” and “attack” in their classroom. The animal cell was the most detailed- with labels of each part, and a short video about it. The coliseum just shows a portion of the coliseum as it stands today, through I guess a public video. It wasn’t AR. I thought we would be able to explore it in AR- if that is a feature only subscribers get, please let us know that so we know the advantages of the full app. I think this would be especially valuable to core teachers - math, science, history etc. to make learning more exciting in their classrooms. I know if I were a student, these AR images would definitely make learning more engaging.

Really impressed with the Journeys. The experience of VR via Mobile without the expensive headsets of VR!! brilliant. I think you need to put more experiences on to the Journey section. I signed up as a teacher and am quite impressed with the function of being able to record my voice over the AR. Also great work on the 3D. This will lift education. i look forward to more updates.

The concept of the app is great. Very educational and entertaining, and I was looking forward to keep my mind sharp and learning on topics that interest me over the summer, but the app will not work. I open the topic I want, I click download and it either just stops downloading or says downloading stopped, which makes no sense to me because there is no reason why it should stop. I have high speed internet, and have tried multiplayer times to get it to work. If this bug gets fixed I would love to use it and would rate it a 4-5 stars depending on how it works.

Visually The AR is stunning. Educationally there’s too much work put on the teacher. To better understand education, you should do a focus group of teachers and see the feedback that they give you about grading, lesson implementation, utilization for the classroom, student engagement, and student led exploration of the lessons. If you were to pull in an educator to help see how it would be implemented in a classroom, you would sell more subscriptions to schools because of the visuals. It seems like at Hologo an educator was not consulted. Truly stunning AR though.

Took at least 10 minutes to get everything working just to see anything. I REALLY dislike apps that won’t let me try anything out until I sign up for something. This one takes it to a new level. You have to go through a majorly annoying process filling out a form and confirming your email address, all for it not to work so go through a badly done reset process that didn’t work. Wasted 15 minutes and never got it to work. Deleted. Don’t waste your time.
