Step inside the 360° photos you already have.

It finds what is already there.

Open Panosphera and your 360° photos, 360° videos and iPhone panoramas are already sorted out from the rest of your library, badged by kind, searchable by date, place and what is in them. Nothing to import.

• Reads the spherical metadata cameras write, and recognizes 360° footage without it.
• A Featured moment each day, and Spotlight picks chosen on the device.
• Search runs entirely on the phone.

Clips that know where to look.

Smart Pan finds the people and the points of interest in a 360° photo or video, then renders a clip that moves from one to the next, pausing on each. Here it turns across a square in Ulm and settles on the Minster. Pick the shape, the length and the direction, watch the preview, share. Or record the path yourself by looking around while it plays.

• 9:16 for stories, 1:1 for feeds, 16:9 for everything else.
• Color managed, so the clip matches what you saw.
• Stitched panoramas sweep edge to edge, never through the seam.

The whole place in one round picture.

Little Planet folds a 360° photo or video into a disc: the ground in the middle, the horizon a circle, the sky all around. Turn it, tilt it toward the horizon, pinch in on the detail. Share it as a still in any shape, or as a spinning clip that turns once and loops.

• Every pixel is projected on the fly, so it stays sharp as you zoom and there is no seam.
• Works on 360° videos too: the planet plays while you turn it.
• The same sunset as the demo above, seen from directly overhead.

A library to fill, and places to fill it from.

No 360° camera yet? Explore is a catalog of free 360° scenes you can add in one tap. Poly Haven's CC0 panoramas and the European Southern Observatory's night skies over Chile are browsable in the app itself, sorted into collections. Open a source to see them all, or leave it closed for a quick look across each one. The catalogs refresh daily.

• Tap Add and the scene lands in your library and your Panosphera album, with where and when it was taken.
• Each site's license is stated up front. Where one asks for credit, it is written into the picture.
• Pills open other sites inside the app, and whatever you save there joins your album when you come back.
• Added scenes are marked as samples, so they never crowd out your own moments in Spotlight or Memories.

Send the view, not the sphere.

Frame the part of a 360° photo you want, share it as a flat photo at the shape you need. Preview first; retake if you want a different angle.

Titled by where, not by guesswork.

Memories group your 360° moments into events and name them by place and date, using the location your photos already carry. No invented captions.

Words, on the device.

When a 360° video has speech, Panosphera transcribes it on the phone and shows captions as it plays. Nothing is sent anywhere to do it.

The same sphere, bigger.

On iPad the library sits beside the viewer, and a keyboard and trackpad drive it: arrow keys turn, space plays, a two-finger scroll looks around. On the Mac the viewer opens in its own window.
