You can transform your 2D content into 3D spatial experiences with auto-spatialization on your Android XR device. It adds depth to apps, including image and video content, which provides a more immersive experience.
Manage auto-spatialization
Important:
- It works best for images and non-protected video content.
- Auto-spatialization only works on the app window currently in focus.
