Remembering: The AR Experience Reviews

by Blizzard_721

It keeps telling me to hold up my device to the screen, does a countdown to 0 and keeps showing the instruction to hold up my device to phone. Nothing else happens. I thought butterflies or something was gonna jump out at me but nope. Looked left right and down of rv and nothing but the screen showing the same instructions to put up my phone then eventually says I gotta rewind to do it again. I now remember how frustrating technology can be. Sounded cool.

I tried using Remembering three different times, I watched the video twice and closed everything, I even deleted it and tried again. Remembering kept saying to hold my phone up but nothing happened and than told me to rewind because I missed the scene. I heard the words come on let’s go and nothing happened.

Okay what was the point for 1 downloading an app. 2 having to be 18+ for it to work. And 3 for the experience to only last 30 seconds!!! Come on Disney do better. If the experience was 8 minutes long like the video on Disney plus then I would give 5 stars. A serious waste of time.

by Aslie

This is really dumb. It starts out so promising and then it’s just an app for one scene for an 8 minute short. Disappointing and really dumb.

by Fairbanksal

For having its own dedicated app, the AR experience is underwhelming and accompanies an even more mediocre short. It’s clear that the budget for this project were paper thin and isn’t an encouraging sign for Disney’s metaverse prospects.

The AR experience includes a waterfall coming out of your TV, a pond and some dolphins. It lasts about 15 seconds. Not worth the trouble of downloading Remembering . Don’t bother with this one. Not memorable at all.

When Remembering opens it asks for an age. I entered 6 for my daughter and it says she’s not old enough. Remembering itself says ages 4+!

I was genuinely disappointed when there was only one scene.

I love that my wife’s first thought was “great now Disney knows what our living room looks like” lol

This video as well as Remembering is extremely enigmatic. what they don’t tell you is that the experience does not last the whole of the eight minute short, it’s just for one 30 second scene. Therefore you’ll spend more time downloading and installing Remembering then actually watching the AR animation it creates.

by Toy Rolling

It was ok but there was only 1 scene and by looking by the other reviews and ratings it's not that good. If you are going to get Remembering I would not really recommend it because there is lots of other good games better than this one because I would rate this 2 stars out of 5.

by Azher

What exactly makes a stand-alone app worth the download? Could’ve easily been a web link of embedded on Snap/Insta. Totally disposable after 15 seconds of video interaction.

Just watch the short the AR experience is pretty basic and is only for one scene of the short. The short itself is alright though.

I’m hoping as time goes on, this will get even better. I was disappointed to see it was only one scene. I did take someone’s advice and “walk around” which did make it a better experience. Good concept, but definitely needs more.

AR worked just fine for me on an iPhone SE 2nd Gen. The experience was a little bland/unimaginative (for an imagination experience). But I just see it as Disney testing interest in this sort of thing and figuring out how it would work. It does (even worked for me in a completely dark room as it anchors to the bright TV). I hope they do more with it than a simple pond with untextured dolphin doodles and a couple trees. Say like a Star Wars action scene with spaceships coming out of the screen? 🤩 They could even take past movies and release new AR experiences for them. Now THAT would definitely increase the draw for a Disney+ subscription.

The film was okay but the AR scene looked great. It seemed more like a simple story contrived for the sake of showing off Augmented Reality. I hope to see better AR films in the future.

Imagine the possibilities with AR technology. For example, you go to Disneyland with either your smartphone or AR glasses and see x-wing fighters fly by at Galaxy’s Edge. Or while waiting in line, ghosts coming out of the walls at Haunted Mansion ride. Perhaps Mickey can be your virtual guide and lead you to great places to eat or show you the quickest way to a particular ride. These are exciting times.

Really cool app, glitched a little. I do wish that you could use it for more stuff, instead of it being a one minute use, but overall very happy.

Such an awesome experience my family loved it, specially my kid! Can’t wait for more content … if there is more 😏

by Jay Ronin

Nifty idea but too short on the AR experience. It would have been nice for the AR to be more interactive with the movie.

by Tbonemain

This is really cool PoC. Makes me wonder if things like apple glasses will be able to do this kind of thing in the future.

by Mehooligan

Don’t want to spoil it, but it makes you feel like the story is in your home.

Remembering is lightweight, easy to use and the experience is beautiful!

The future is looking magical.

This is awesome! What a great experience. Used my iPad for a better experience than a phone. Really cool how you could move the view to see the lake beneath you and tree growing beside you. Please do more!!!

This was such a cute short film. I’m impatient so i didn’t use Remembering but i highly recommend watching it anyways. I wouldn’t waste much time with Remembering part. It was heartwarming. Very pleased.

by JOEOVERVILLE

Thanks for continue made this kind of short films. Im male 40 years old and was incredible the story i got to confess i was emotional.
And the 3d experience was grate thanks again.

I no longer love Disney like I used to - Their recent “attempts”(?) at bringing us more together is only resulting in further division.

That said, this was still so cool that it gave me chills.

Can’t believe that Remembering only has 3.6 stars at present. While I will admit - in hindsight - that it was a bit weird to have to download an app that was only used for one scene in the film; it’s worth this app that said film is also only eight minutes long.

by Turtle Universe

I think too many people are just looking at the screen through their phones while sitting on their couch. stand up and walk into the AR. that’s what makes Remembering so freaking awesome. you can literally even if only for a part of it walk into the film.

My whole family thought it was fun, cute, and magical! Good experience for all age’s
