3D Apps on Galaxy XR: The Future is Here

Auto-spatialization could mean a whole new dimension in your virtual reality experience, or just more battery drain.

Android XR is gaining an experimental feature called ‘auto-spatialization’ that turns 2D apps into 3D experiences. Initially announced last year, this feature is now rolling out to Samsung Galaxy XR headsets as a test.


The tech giant claims it supports content up to 1080p or lower at 30fps and only works on the app window currently in focus. However, it does use slightly more battery power according to Google.


Other updates for the Galaxy XR include the ability to pin apps to virtual walls, see your real hands when interacting with virtual content in home space mode, and return automatically to previously open apps after removing the headset.


The platform now boasts over 100 apps on Google Play, more than double from its launch in October. Whether these features will change the game or just give you a headache remains to be seen.
