Could have been sooo much better!

First of all, the Go controller doesn’t work with this and you have an annoying circle over everything you look at and have to crook your neck to look at the menu and stare at it till the circle fills. All the locations have the exact same bird chirping sounds, even the ones with rain which would have been nice to hear the actual rain sounds. There are really bad seams in the sky for some of the locations. There are small circles that turn into big circles when you look at them and you think it’s going to transport you somewhere else but it doesn’t, it just shows you a closeup of some plants. There is no narration, nothing like what is described in the app, just 10 static 3D forest locations which might have been nice for meditation if the annoying circles weren’t superimposed over them, if there weren’t glaring seams in the sky and if the sound was authentic and surround sound. There is nothing educational as described unless the app just doesn’t work and staring at the circles are actually supposed to do something besides just showing a closeup of a few plants.... It’s really too bad, because based on the description, it seemed like something I would have liked. If they update and fix the app, I’m happy to update my review. I really hope they fix it...
