Cardboard is an Android app developed by Google that allows you to experience virtual reality (VR) using your smartphone and a simple, inexpensive Cardboard viewer. The app works by splitting your phone's screen into two images, one for each eye, creating a stereoscopic 3D effect when viewed through the lenses of the Cardboard viewer. This provides an immersive VR experience for various applications. To use Cardboard, you'll need to download the app, assemble a compatible Cardboard viewer (available from many retailers), and then launch the app. The app includes a variety of demo experiences, such as tours, 360° videos, and simple games. You can also use Cardboard with other VR-compatible apps and content available on the Google Play Store. Google Cardboard also allows developers to create their own VR experiences using the Cardboard SDK. While the technology is simple, it provides an accessible entry point into the world of virtual reality.

Look I've been using this app in like since it came out and it would be nice if there was more features that were introduced to Google cardboard which is the main reason I stopped using it like honestly it's clear when it comes to the screen.
