Panorama

Support

Panorama is an on-device spherical-panorama camera for iPhone. Capture a scene, look around it by moving your phone, and share it — all locally, with nothing sent to a server.

Need help, or found a bug?

Email wispier_halls_8g@icloud.com and describe what happened — the more specific, the faster it gets fixed. If a particular scan rendered badly, open it in the Library, tap the ⋯ menu, and choose Export diagnostic bundle… to send along the raw capture data. It's only useful for troubleshooting and goes straight to the email above, nowhere else.

Common questions

Does Panorama need an internet connection?
No. Capturing, stitching, storing, and viewing all happen entirely on your iPhone. You can use Panorama in airplane mode.
Why does the shared photo look like a stretched, distorted strip?
That's the raw equirectangular projection — the standard format for a 360° photo, and completely normal. It becomes an interactive sphere you can look around in apps that understand 360 photos, like Google Photos or Facebook. In Apple's own Photos app it just displays as that wide strip.
Why does Panorama ask for Camera, Motion, and Location access?
Camera captures the images that make up the panorama. Motion tracks where you're pointing the phone, both while capturing and while looking around a saved panorama afterward. Location (optional) tags a panorama with where it was taken, stored only in the image's own metadata on your device. None of it is ever transmitted anywhere — see the Privacy Policy for the full detail.
I deleted a panorama by accident — is it recoverable?
Unfortunately no. Panorama has no cloud backup by design, so deleting a panorama in the app removes it from your device for good. If you'd shared or saved a copy elsewhere (Photos, Files, AirDrop) beforehand, that copy is unaffected.
