    Unlike VRidge and Trinus, iVRy allows you to have an unlimited amount of time in VR without interrupting you. It only decreases the quality of the stream and color saturation. Although I haven't really tried out many other cheap VR alts, this one will defiantly be my temporary VR alt for now.

    Bigscreen VR allows people to stream their desktop, frequently used for streaming movies that multiple friends can watch together in a virtual movie theater setting. It is considered a screen-sharing app. The only similarity these programs have are that they both use a client on a headset, and server running on a pc. But they do entirely different things.

    TrinusVR, while being on both IOS and Android, is just bad. It's laggy and stutters, the headtracking is off and broken, and if you aren't playing a game where you use the mouse to look around, you simply can't look around.
