SmoothTrack for Android

This app literally saved me $190 because I almost bought a trackIR to play DCS and MFS2020. I have an Oculus, but it gets annoying sometimes I have an Android 13 pro max, works flawlessly. 10/10 recommend

This ten dollar app is better than expensive peripherals like Tobii or Track IR. Up and running in less than ten minutes, works flawlessly. Saved me 200 bucks since I no longer need extra hardware! Support this dude he deserves it.

1 hour in Elite Dangerous with SmoothTrack head tracking and I’m already going to give this 5 stars. I was unsure at first when walking around in a station but as soon as I got out into a resource extraction zone and could more easily see asteroids and keep track of combat targets it felt completely natural. Even before head tracking I was already moving my head instinctually in the direction of what I wanted to see better, this just gives you the in-game feedback that your brain expects. It’s so natural feeling. Setup was dead simple if you’ve ever used a computer before and the app does exactly what it claims to. Could not be happier.

This app is a great headtracker if you’re on a budget, but there are some things that aren’t perfect. One of them being that it eats through a phone battery real quick, i recommend using it on low power mode. The other being it loses track of your head if you turn horizontal to it, but i can’t ask for too much from a phone camera. Overall a great option if you need a fast and cheap headtracker.

I have been a pilot, both fixed-wing and rotary-wing, in an Arma 3 unit for a while now and my biggest gripe with flying was the lack of visual information without using a head tracker. I use a joystick and to free look without this app, you need to take your hands off the stick to go to the keyboard and free look. This is extremely dangerous as you lose all of your fine controls just to take a look at where you need to land. I’ve looked into getting TrackIr but those options seemed too pricey to get in my opinion. This app is at the perfect value however. $10 is such a good price for what you get. While still rough around the edges, (not of the fault of the devs but from limitations of the system being from a phone) I think it does the job well. The customization both in the app and in Opentrack helps alleviate some of those issues. Overall I think any pilot should give this option a shot if they are interested with a head tracking system and don’t already own TrackIr or other alternatives.
