I HOPE YOU WILL IMPROVE IT !!

I loved the level of quality of the filming !! What I didn't like and surely could be better is the video compression they used for the Oculus quest. I wish and hope they can fix it! I'm sure you can see better, the compression of the video is not good! SPANISH SUBTITLES !! IT IS A SHAME THAT THE MARKET IS ONLY POINTED AT ENGLISH. IN THE WORLD THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO SPEAK OTHER LANGUAGES THAT WE ALSO WANT TO ENJOY A DOCUMENTARY. I HOPE YOU SOLVE THESE THINGS. THEY ARE GOOD DETAILS FOR US CONSUMERS.

Excellent content

A tip for those Oculus Quest 2 users having trouble downloading content - when I installed the app from the in-headset store there was no buttons to download anything, so I uninstall it. I subsequently tried downloading the app using the Oculus app on my phone, and this time I could now see previews of each episode, and download them to watch the full episode. So if you're having trouble downloading content, try that. You will notice there are 3 or 4 episodes for each of the (currently) 5 locations, and each episode must be downloaded individually. The film content is excellent, but it's a shame you have to download it all instead of being able to stream it.

Amazing VR experience

This quickly became one of my favorite apps on Quest. Very high quality, beautiful, informative, with many emotionally moving stories from around the world. You really feel like you are transported to the location with the immersive 360 videos. Highly recommend and a must have in your Quest collection.
