Photo Spheres - photo.merq.org for Android
This does exactly what it's meant to do and does so beautifully. It uploads "Photospheres" taken specifically with the Android 4.2 camera to a website where they can be viewed and shared by anyone with the internet. Nothing more, nothing less. Anyone disappointed is probably trying to use it to do something it doesn't do, like trying to use Facebook on your kettle.
Not sure what people are expecting from this app but it doesn't take or stitch photos together, it allows you to upload your own photo spheres and allow other people to view them. It does what it says it does.
Really glad Google displays user names along with reviews now. To bad it's not curbing stupid comments. Can't wait to add photospheres to my website :) You guys rock! I'm usually picky about UI's, but that's the only complaint I have. Very well thought out app. Thanks again :)
Thank you for the update! Works as it should in browser. Everything else works like a charm.
there are many photospheres as well as many panoramas, but you can't view photospheres as photospheres/street view, it only views them as panoramas, which is disappointing considering this app is supposed to create a photosphere comunity not a panoram comunity.
Hangs a lot also, it may or may not be good once you get the photos uploaded, not prepared to wait for the app (constant white screen) and the web site slowness. Uninstalling.
I went looking for an app that allows me to embed Photospheres on my blog as google has no obvious way of doing this. This app says they do it and it worked first time. If google provide embedding from the spheres I share from my phone this may be the more natural way to go but for now this app works perfectly. Other reviewers who give 1* for an app because an app doesn't do things it doesn't claim to do are really only giving themselves 1*.
If you want to see photosphere photos go on Google Plus and join the photosphere community. You have to have the 4.2 camera in order to take and view the photosphere photos.
Trash app.. UI is not at all user friendly.
Can't take pictures with this app. You can only upload them.
Does not work on my LG Optimus V. How can I uninstall this app?
Bad
Not working
It clearly says "Upload Photo Spheres Android (4.2)" meaning you must have 4.2 to have Photo Sphere. It doesn't not say that it takes pictures. Easy to upload.
As above! Cannot take OR put together panoramic pictures, it's just a app full of pictures. Waste of time!!
It may be my misunderstanding but I couldn't find a clear statement of what this app supports. I wanted the ability to view panoramas I'd taken on my nexus 4 from my older galaxy tablet. But it doesn't seem to do that.
Doesn't work well at all and moves like a snail stuck in molasses in January.
Dire waste of my time. I want to take and view my own pics not just view everyone else's.
