Google Spotlight Stories for iOS was recently unveiled, making it possible for Apple users to tap into a world of animated films from their mobile devices in a way that's completely immersive.

This app boasts cinema-quality content, as well as a sound sphere and sensor fusion techniques. By telling stories in a 360-degree format, with a smartphone in hand, viewers are able to move their bodies around to reveal more the of the film, rather than passively sitting in a cinema seat.
