Pretty new to gear vr but i dont think this is what i originally saw. When i put on the vr the visible area is just a circle and not fullscreen. Looks like i am looking through binoculars.  How do i get back to fullscreen?

 As of right now all VR is just looking through a circle. Some bigger than others.  Once you’re in the game after a while you don’t even notice it. It’s just when you’re looking for it.

The manufacturers use a diagonal measure for field of view, so that 100° is more like 75° horizontal. Narrow FOV is one of the biggest weak spots in the VR world, but it's looking to get better with upcoming hardware.
How do you get back to full screen? Take off the headset.
