Never try this...

It didn't work

Y70%

Seems good when it works. However the gamepad controls only seem to work 5% of the time, the rest of the time either doing nothing or opening an advert in chrome. Tired the pro version to see if those issues went away but that version just crashed on startup every time.

This is a wonderful app. Although it supports internal storage, if it could provide reading from external USB drive, it would beat all the apps. 360 degree videos are large files internal storage are usually full. Please add this feature and I am sure a lot people would even buy the app if included.

I really like the app. It's the only one I found working with cubic 12x1 maps in a correct way! :) Although the quality is terrible when it comes to 3d cubic mapping, the image is completely blurred, and the stitches are visible. Is there any trick to overcome it? Any max image resolution?

Gyro works best in this app. Very responsive. I wish to buy premium but I have a question: I have a very hires panorama. The resolution is very low. My image has a certainly higher resolution. I wonder if it is only a limitation of the free version. Can you confirm?
