Hi all
Does anyone have some tips for me? I am using a Huawei P9 phone which has a Leica lens and the quality is really good.
However my 360 photos just dont seem to stitch or flow nicely together.
I follow the dots around and try to keep the camera as level and as still as possible.
Should I start and finish at a particular spot?
Am I doing something wrong?
Hello,
I think you use a Street view app, try to third part’s app and see if you have a good 360 picture.

I love taking 360 photos in day times. My 360s look better when i avoid people/crowds.
Continue from the last point to the first entry point. As a result, when you upload photos to Google Maps, it goes into regular order.

Hey Toto,
I thought I will share my latest picture that I took using your method. I used the Google Street view app, a monopod and my Huawei P9 smartphone.
Thanks again for the great method.

First rule is to keep memory left on your smartphone 
Then, remember to rotate around a virtual axis that is placed between the lens and the sensor; try move around your smartphone, instead of rotate with it.
What @LucioV said. You need to imagine a point in the middle of the lens on your phone and make sure your phone rotates on that point. So you are going around your phone and not your phone going around you. If you move away from the imaginary pivot point you introduce parallax that the stitching software cannot fix.
@LucioV .
What do you mean by “First rule is to keep memory left on your smartphone”?
I created a 360° with my Note8 using Google 360 but I wanted to review it before publishing to Maps. How do I do I review it before publishing?
The problem with your instructions @user_not_found is that I could bearly hear what you were saying it was so faint.
My question is “is there a way to preview my work before publishing to maps”.
@M1x1D have you configure Google 360 to recognize faces then another setting for blurring faces? Perhaps that will help with figures.
360 photo with moving subjects or objects is really hard. You can try 360 camera to take photo in one snap.
I have taken about hundreds of photos using Gcam and Street view apps. For me 360 was something that was making me satisfied with places that has views on around. I can remember the days when people used to stare at me taking insane photos with my phone.
Recently I switched to a 360 camera, a cheap one but serves my purpose and I can take decent 360 of places in just one click.
