Archived editorial snapshot
Cardboard 4.0 archive notes
Cardboard turns a phone and a compatible viewer into an approachable entry point for simple virtual reality. Users scan a viewer QR code with the camera, pair the correct profile, and place the phone inside the headset for split-screen viewing. The app also points toward compatible VR content and demonstrations, helping newcomers understand what a low-cost or homemade viewer can offer. Viewer profiles and setup preferences keep calibration tied to the hardware in use. It suits people exploring smartphone VR at home without a more complex headset, provided the phone, viewer, sensors, and selected content are compatible.
Pair a viewer by QR code
Scan the Cardboard viewer's QR code to load the matching profile and calibration. This gives the phone the setup information needed for the particular viewer.
Explore split-screen smartphone VR
Place the phone in the viewer and use compatible scenes or demonstrations in a two-eye display. The simple arrangement makes introductory VR accessible with inexpensive hardware.
Discover compatible experiences
Use the app as a gateway toward Cardboard-ready content and demos. Viewer profiles and preferences help keep the experience aligned with the hardware being used.
