### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-05-14*

I wanted to use this to change some 360 photos that I took with my DJI drone to work on Facebook but it’s a waste of four dollars. It does not work at all.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2026-01-03*

Waste of money

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2025-12-20*

Paid $3.99 and got a totally un-usable app. No method to navigate to your files on MacBook and tried on iPhone 16 and got it to look at a file in photos but can’t find where it put the processed file. No instructions on docs to help. Total garbage. Save your money!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work, apple will not provide refund

*2025-10-22*

This app does not work as promised and immediately after trying, I cannot get Apple to refund. It was a total waste of time and money. 
I thought Apple would at least refund within a few minutes of purchasing but, NOPE. 
BUYER BEWARE

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-07-13*

Just downloaded and thought I’d give it a try. Selected a full panoramic photo (iPhone) then selected and straight away get an error message - “Error. Not supported image.“.  Any ideas, anyone?? Or how to contact support??

### 1/5 — Does nothing
