  1. Take a 360° photo

    Follow the dots

    Turn around on the spot with your iPhone. Put the yellow dot in the circle and hold still: each shot takes itself.

  2. Take a 360° photo

    Keep it level

    Line up the white marks with the line around the circle. It turns green when the iPhone is straight.

  3. View a 360° photo

    Move your iPhone

    Point your iPhone where you want to look. The photo surrounds you, as if you were looking through a window.

  4. View a 360° photo

    Drag to look around

    Swipe with one finger to look in any direction: up, down, and all the way around.

  5. View a 360° photo

    Pinch to zoom

    Spread two fingers to zoom in. Pinch them together to zoom out.

  6. View a 360° photo

    Tap for depth

    Your photos remember how far away everything is. Tap the cube and nearby things shift against the background as you look around. The slider sets how much.

Devices with LiDAR (iPhone Pro and iPad Pro) give the best results, but the app works without it too.

Your photos know where they are

  • Street names and landmarks appear over the photo, right where they are. Tap a landmark to read about it.
  • Your nearby photos show in the direction you took them, with how far away. Tap one to go there.
  • A map shows every photo where you took it.

Edit your photos

  • Exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, saturation, warmth and tint, adjusted live as you look around.
  • Auto sets the sliders from the photo. Hold Compare to see the photo as it was.
  • Edits are non-destructive: the original is kept, so you can undo them at any time.

Questions

How do I take a 360° photo with an iPhone?
Open 360 Image, stand on one spot and turn around. Put the yellow dot in the circle and hold still: each shot takes itself. When you have gone all the way around, the app stitches the shots into one 360° photo.
Do I need a 360° camera?
No. The app uses the camera of the iPhone or iPad you already have. Devices with LiDAR (iPhone Pro and iPad Pro) give the best results, but it works without it too.
How sharp are the photos?
Up to 8192 × 4096 pixels, 33 megapixels, often called 8K. The app stitches each photo from about 30 shots taken with your device's main camera, so the detail holds up when you zoom in. On devices with less memory the photo may be smaller.
What does the app do with LiDAR?
On an iPhone Pro or iPad Pro, the LiDAR camera measures how far away things are as you turn. The app uses that to line the shots up, and keeps the depth in the photo, so nearby things shift against the background as you look around. As an added bonus, you'll see a 3D model of your capture.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere to be stitched?
No. 360 Image is designed to be private. The stitching happens on your device, so your shots never leave it to be processed. There is no account and no tracking, and the developer has no access to your photos.
Can I open 360° photos from a 360° camera or another app?
Yes. Open any 360° photo from Photos or Files and look around in it by moving your iPhone or dragging with a finger.
Where can I share my 360° photos?
Save them to Photos or share them anywhere 360° photos are welcome. They keep their 360° information, so apps and sites that show 360° photos recognise them.
Is it free?
Yes. 360 Image is free on the App Store, for iPhone and iPad.
