Explore on a map • See where every panorama was taken on an interactive world map. • Pin a spot with several shots and pick the one you like best. Explore the streets • Drop a pin on the map and step into the 360° view at street level — optionally in full resolution for razor-sharp detail. • Now including user-contributed 360° photos from places no camera car ever reached — mountain tops, trails, indoor spots. • Heart your favorite spots and find them again in the List and on the Map. Step inside • Open any photo to a true 360° view and drag to look around — no roll, no distortion. • Zoom in to inspect the details, then jump to the next, previous, or a random panorama. • On Apple Vision Pro the scene wraps completely around you in full immersion, with a comfort vignette as you turn. Watch together • Share a panorama over FaceTime with SharePlay so everyone explores the same view. • Or create a Room and let others join by name — no FaceTime required (optional password). • Point things out with a laser pointer: everyone gets their own color, labelled with their name. • GeoGame: start a multiplayer guessing game — everyone lands on the same random street-level spot and guesses the place on the map; closest wins. With a 3-2-1 start, timer, scoreboard and a winner podium. Contribute your own • Sign in and upload your own 360° panoramas — with a title, description and map location, for everyone to see. • Set the front so others see the best part first. • You decide whether others may save each one.
