Hi, I am brand-new here.I would like to incorporate this brilliant idea of an AR scavenger hunt into my classroom activities. However, I have encountered several issues: (1) How do I invite a group of students to participate in this game? For example, can I simply copy the link and send it to my students? (2) Since the stunning marbles shift slightly, how should I set a marble's location? For instance, is a distance of 50 meters sufficient? My school campus is spread across 16 hectares.
Hi, Thanks for reaching out. Love the idea to incorporate this in classroom activities. To your questions: 1. There are several ways of doing this. The simplest is to just create the Marbles and tell the students where the first Marble is. You can also hide the following Marbles on the map so they have to find them using riddles you place in the Marbles. You can find this option in the Marble editor under "Set Location" (top right hamburger menu). There is also another option for creating "private hunts". In this case, you would create a so-called "group". You can find this feature when you tap on the "Discussions" button (second buttom from the right). You can then place the Marbles in this group, by either a) selecting the group in the "layers selector" (top of screen) or by b) setting the Group in the Marble editor (where it shows #general by default). Then, you can invite your students to that group using an invite link. You can find this feature in the Group editor (also located under "discussions"). 2. The Marbles might drift a bit if the compass or the GPS sensor receives new data. If you use the app outdoors, the location might be 5m-20m off, depending on your device. In our experience, iPhones tend to have a much better GPS and compass than Android devices. When I did kids' scavenger hunts (e.g. for my daugher's birthday party), I usually placed the Marbles around every 50m, so the kids won't have to walk too far to find the next one. Per default, this means that they might see other Marbles from a distance. To prevent his, you can lower the "visibility range" of each Marble. You can also find this option under "Set Location" in the Marble editor. Please also note that there is a web-based "Creator Suite" where you can edit your Marbles from a desktop browser: app.marblever.se. You can login with your Marbleverse account there. This web-based tool also allows you to setup a so-called "channel", which is a landing page where you can describe your experience and share this with your students. This feature is not available to all users by default. Let me know your username if you want to try it out. And, if you want to, we can also do a Zoom session, so I can show you exactly how to do this. I am based in Sweden.
I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your incredibly detailed response. Your clear instructions are of great help. If possible, could I kindly request access to the "channel" feature on the web-based Creator Suite? My username is [Eric1]. I'm genuinely excited about the opportunity to explore this feature and create fantastic classroom experiences for my students.Thank you so much for your assistance and generosity!@@MarbleverseOfficial
What happened to collections? It doesn’t seem to be an option any longer.

When will this be available for Android
It already is, just look for "Marbleverse". Or follow this link: marblever.se/getapp
It lists my devices, But says they're ineligible. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is there a list of compatible hardware I can see somewhere?
@@brandonosprey7457 Your device has to be ARCore compatible. Here's a full device list: developers.google.com/ar/devices
My moto g stylus is on the list as arc core compatible but it's saying ineligible when I go to download still.
