Review: GizmoVR Video Player is a classic media player for VR. It has a nice living room environment to watch stuff in and it seems to be able to handle most media formats. But there are many, many others that do exactly the same things. There is nothing new here, mostly because this app doesn’t need anything need. It’s free, it works and someone out there might find it useful. But as I have already said, there is nothing here to make it stand out from the crowd.
