Review: Lifewire
Panorama 360 has hung on for a long, long time, having been available since 2011. It’s also probably one of the most fully-featured apps for panoramas, and will even work with 360 cameras and other VR tech.
That professional focus can be great if that’s what you’re looking for, but if you’re looking for something more basic, or aren’t interested in anything beyond the occasional vacation photo, this may be more app than you need, especially as some high-end features are locked behind an in-app purchase paywall.

When it comes to capturing 360-degree pictures of flawless quality, Camera360 sets the touchstone for all other apps.
In fact, its name has become a byword for creating beautiful pictures that automatically rub out some of God’s little imperfections in our selves.
Attesting to this is the nearly 1 billion people using this app from around the globe. And that’s almost one-fifth of humanity my friend.
This app is specially designed for people with a strong fervor for taking selfies and photos whether in the standard two-dimensional setting or in a 360-degree setting.
It’s like having a professional photo studio on your phone as it comes with professional editing tools to help you further enhance your photos.
It also has other photo and video effects and customizable filters to recreate a virtual reality for your images.
3. Photo stitch
Photo Stitcher make a long and large picture, panorama photo by take up to 3 landscape photos or 5 portrait photos by the Camera or import from the Photos then the app will stitch into one large image.
The stitched image looks like a photo just takes from one shot from camera.
How to stitch pictures, make panorama picture: take photos from camera that having a little overlap area from one and another, e.g. take 3 landscape photos from camera (from left to right or vice versa) photo 2 must have a small overlap area with photo 1 and photo 3 must have a small overlap area with photo 2.
Then app will stitch all your photos by comparing the overlap area for matching and then merging to 1 smooth picture.

Simply import (or capture) three landscape and five portrait photos and this app will stitch them together instantly.
That’s how simple it is! What’s more, you can email your pics and share them with your loved ones to win a lot of praise.

Its is so much fun taking pictures with Fuse. And the added option to share with iMessage and so forth now make it so much easier to share.
I am still have difficulties understanding the options of taking the Images but regardless I do take my photos and I love them.
Ooo the program is a bit heavy for my phone so when I use it is a bit slow. Still I don’t regret having it and I love using it.
5. Cardboard Camera

Review: PlayStore
Cardboard Camera is one of the best VR apps I’ve ever used, and I recommend it highly to anyone with a compatible headset.
For those complaining about it merely being a panoramic camera, let me explain a bit about how it works. When the images are viewed in anything other than the app itself, they will not be in 3D.
As you may know, it takes two images to creates a 3D effect, either one image for each eye taken from two slightly different viewpoints, or a single image and a depth map (that one’s really complicated).
To a standard viewer, there is only one image in the file. Where’s the second image? Google did something really clever: the image data is there, but tucked away inside a hidden part of the file that’s essentially a free-form comment section. Other image viewers have no way to know about this or display it as a picture.
6. PanoramaCrop
Keep your Instagram’s feed alive with swipeable panoramas! PanoramaCrop easily splits your wide photos so you can make the most out of the new Instagram’s multi-photo posts.
Review: Lifewire
PanoramaCrop has both ads and in-app purchases, but it’s still usable, and probably the most effective cropping app we’ve found if you love shooting huge vistas.
Also potentially annoying: if you use your phone to shoot, it may take a little work to arrange a photo shot in landscape to be properly cropped; shooting in portrait is much easier to crop, which is something of an odd choice.
7. 360cam
The Giroptic 360cam is a 360 degree camera built to easily capture video and photos from every angle. It delivers easy real time streaming video over Wi-Fi, recorded 360 videos and photos, in the palm of your hand.

Review: iTunes
My camera just came in! I’m having trouble viewing the output of the video/photo. I can record videos but only plays back the audio and a black screen.
I can’t stream camera using the stream mode, shows black screen all the time. Can admin help? Can’t find any relevant support help
8. Photoaf Panorama
Create beautiful, seamless 360 panoramic photos easily by utilizing the camera and the orientation sensor to know the exact angle each picture was taken.
When done, you can move your phone around to see the complete panoramic view by using the phone’s compass or the touch screen.
Review: Lifewire
This might be the most granular of the panoramas, with little “bubble” levels on the screen helping you keep your phone in the proper orientation to create the image you want.
On some level, it’s the most newbie-friendly app, with accessible tips and tricks to learn more about the app and what it does.

P360 has been called Instagram for Panoramas and is the best app to capture 360-degree quality panoramas and watch 360 videos.

You wouldn’t find a better app than “360 Panorama” to capture enviable pano the shots. It’s incredibly easy to take panoramic photos with this app. Getting the best out of your iOS device, it stitches panos perfectly and instantly.
You can use a gyroscope to interact with your pics. Since every panorama is GPS tagged, you won’t forget the location where you had snapped that shot.

Review: iTunes
Finally an app I can use to capture environment lighting to light my 3D scenes! I had been without a panoramic app since Microsoft killed Photosynth.
It’s really nice to have a quality 360×360° pano app! (Would be awesome if in future versions I could load existing equirec pano images from my camera roll and view them in the app.)
