Mobile Augmented Reality

This list below covers what we at Mobile Augmented Reality consider to be the best augmented reality apps currently available in the App Store. Over the past few weeks, hundreds of augmented reality (AR) apps have hit the App Store. The majority of these are ‘transit’ and ‘bus and tube routing’ apps and are more-or-less duplicates that do not do anything to advance this technology. To save room the best, most interesting, innovative AR apps, the duplicate ‘transit’ apps will largely be left out from our list.

I will do my best to keep this list of the best iPhone augmented reality apps updated guys! If you know of any I’ve forgotten about post them in the comments and I’ll add them to the list.
