Facebook, arguably the most used social media platform, has been known to present many innovative ideas and trends in its services to provide an exquisite social media experience to the people.From the introduction of timelines, cover photos to different emotions instead of likes are just to name a few of such innovations. The latest pick in the stack is the 360 photos, introduced recently on the platform. It basically allows a user to view the whole landscape from every orientation, thus the name 360 photos.

Just like normal camera panorama feature, the 360 photo allows you to take multiple panoramic photos from multiple angles and stitch them together in order to give the maximum view of the picture. The 360 panoramic view ensures the fact that a person has completely captured the moment inside his camera and let others experience the same moment with same feelings.

The main purpose of the Facebook 360 photo feature is to completely describe the location or landscape that has inspired you to go for the panorama and your friends feel similar zeal. With its enhanced utility and easy to use approach, it’s really not that hard to capture a moment panoramically and explain each and every detail of it by fitting it inside the whole 360-degree view. The user who is seeing such 360 photos has the ability to rotate it up, down, leftwards and rightwards, that too by zooming at appropriate angles.

This implies the user to edit the picture from certain new scenarios and also expand the scope of photo editing softwares. The crux of such photos has rendered us to believe that we are living inside that photo right now and we can enhance our moments and emotions. People can share these photos, just like other normal photos, leave comments on them like the normal photos.



Furthermore, the Facebook 360 video feature is also available on Facebook. Also, Facebook believes in extraordinary thoughts emerging from ordinary things such as everyday photos and videos.

A 360 photo will certainly adopt a wider range of thoughts, emotions, and comments coming out from a normal person’s mind. This ploy is perfect for any type of person just expressing his thoughts in one picture, now the difference is that the picture is a huge panorama covering every possible angle of it!

Facebook also encouraged people to go ahead and explore more of these 360 photos by taking as many panoramas as possible. The reception of 360 photos has been fairly critical, many people enjoyed the feature using outdoors or on the memorable places they visit.

According to the popular concept, photos 360 works sublimely when one wants to showcase a historical location related to his/her life by showcasing each and every aspect accurately highlighting every detail and changes the places has encountered.

Facebook 360 photo has been a primal feature in determining these slight formations in historical places, the fun part is that only a single panoramic 360-degree picture is enough to account for all the details and developments a person wants from a specific place.

The photo is rendered as a normal picture and its compatibility is with every modern smartphone. It takes a little bit of time to capture such 360 photos earlier on when you’re learning but after some time, you get to know the groove of it and at some time, you just enjoy taking these 360 photos and preserving its memories forever.

The other fun aspect of 360 photos is that event photographer gets a little bit surprised when he takes a look at the 360 picture after some time by discovering more views from a single angle and the depth of the photo he captured earlier on and never realized it.

Facebook pages are fully compatible with 360 photos and many news pages have used 360 photos in order to cover their event with more authority. People seem to like the idea of getting everything in a single thing, thus a single 360 photo might prove to be sufficient in order to cover a concert, highlight a place or portraying a gathering and informing how many people are attending it.



The Facebook 360 photo currently offers only one upload at a time, also the picture should be taken from another application, Facebook will just look it from the memory and uploads it. The current 360 photos are rotated easily with the help of mouse but people have expressed some concerns when controlling these 360 photos on touch screens. Photos 360 is also facing some bug issues in windows phone that are sure to be minimized in the new update.



The Facebook 360 video feature is also a bit unpractical as people have to rotate multiple times in order to view the every detail of the video which is time extensive and also takes away the extra sense of excitement related to the video. This trend has also been observed on Facebook that people tend to use 360 photos more than 360 videos.

360 photos have certainly taken the attention of many curious people on Facebook and has earned a respectable reputation so far from Facebook. The added feature is currently available in almost every region Facebook is available at. We are yet to see some room for improvements in the overall package and Facebook might come up with some small changes in its 360 photos feature.



The overall 360 photos feature is mobile oriented, so many people use their mobile phones or tablet devices in order to upload 360 photos on Facebook which is understandable as these moments are captured directly from the mobile phone camera application.

The current popularity of 360 photos will continue to rise as more and more people try to share pictures of places and milestones they love and cherish and they want their whole world to cherish with them as well. This is certainly a unique feature from Facebook that also give them an edge past the other social media platforms currently available on the internet.
