Pointless Like many people I have found the latest version of the app to be pretty useless. A few years ago I had this app for taking panoramic pictures to send to my son in Japan, he also had a cardboard viewer. But the new version doesn't have any way of taking pictures or even uploading old panoramas from the previous app which I still have saved.

this was an amazing app! but since I updated my phone to a Samsung S25, this app is no longer supported on this new phone. So while you can still view the old pictures you took, you can no longer record new ones. Very disappointing, as this is the only one I know of that also records sound with your 360 pictures. Please put out an update to fix this!!

Add an option to bind buttons. Instead of tapping the screen, it would be nice to press the volume button, or a button on a headset. I'd also expect a setting to adjust the size of the screens. Small VR sets don't work as well on large phones, and phones with 2:1 screen ratios. Also, you shouldn't be allowed to charge more than $10 for any of the google carboard sets.
