Review summary

Hoverlay is praised for its unique capability to create and place diverse AR content easily and quickly, offering a rich free experience and good tech support. However, multiple users report frequent crashes, a poorly designed and unfriendly interface, and usability issues like hidden system buttons that impair navigation. Some users also note the app sometimes shows ads without delivering promised AR content, resulting in a mixed reception overall.

Pros

Allows users to create and place their own AR elements such as images, sound, video, 3D objects, and links.
Easy to install and set up, enabling quick preview of artwork or NFTs to scale.
Free to use with a generous limit on creating multiple AR 'spaces'.
Loads content quickly and brings enjoyable AR experiences closer.
Good tech support and potential for future improvements.

Cons

App crashes frequently when displaying images or content.
User interface is described as poorly designed, unfriendly, and ugly.
Full screen mode hides Android system buttons, making it difficult to exit the app.
Some users experienced it as useless or non-functional, particularly in certain locations like Chicago.
Advertisements appear without providing expected AR content, leading to user frustration.

2021-11-16	Ra*****	What a great app for viewing AR content. To my knowledge Hoverlay is the only system that allows users to create and place in space their own AR elements like images, sound, video, 3D objects, links …… Once I opened my free account with Hoverlay I was able to create ”spaces” where I placed my various AR content. WEB interface allowed for positioning AR content in front of viewers. In no time I created my first exibition spaces where I was showing my 3D sculptures created in 3DS Max, Blender, Z-brush and Substance Painter. Amazing. Another amazing thing is that it is free. Even with my free account I was able to create at least 10 spaces where I showcased my art. I guess there has to be some fee for going over their free limits. I guess they have to pay servers to host all this data. I don’t know what the limit is but I did not reach it yet although I created a lots of ”spaces”. I simply love this app and I am sure from this point it will only get better and better and better. :) By the way it works great with my Samsung Galaxy A32 phone.
