Two years after its release on Android, Google's Photo Sphere app arrives on iOS. The photo spheres can be mapped in +Google Maps using the new Google Maps Views, like these still photos, mostly mapped back when G+ supported that along with many originally mapped in +Panoramio: https://www.google.com/maps/views/profile/107459220492917008623?gl=us&pv=2&tab=2&po=2

Announcement: Photo Sphere for iOS
Today we bring the magic of #photosphere to the iPhone and iPad with "Photo Sphere Camera". Get it on the App Store: http://appstore.com/PhotoSphereCamera
Photo Sphere Camera creates 360-degree panoramas up to an amazing 50 megapixels! We've also made it really easy to publish your favorite photo spheres straight to +Google Maps and Views (g.co/views) to help other people explore the world.
I'm really loving this app as I travel. It's perfect when I'm visiting hiking trails or urban downtowns, historic locations or resort hotels. Below are some of my favorites…

Cool. Only two years later.
woot ... if iPhones were any good (or had any market share), they would have ported it long ago :)
Joe Apple rarely looks to outside developers to port things unless it's fantastic such as Bluetooth
That's really funny +Joe Azure !
Android and Windows Phone have unique capabilities, but the Apple iPhone 6 Plus is still best

The iPhone is far more important to app developers economically:

GOOGLE'S DIRTY SECRET: Android Phones Are Basically Used As Dumbphones

My first smartphone was the original Droid, but Verizon stopped upgrading the OS within a few months of my purchase, so it quickly became a paperweight as I couldn't get critical emerging apps for it.
Later I had the HTC EVO running Android, returned it as a lemon and the replacement was just as buggy. Then Sprint reneged on their 2 year contract for unlimited data, so that had to go. Now Sprint is offering unlimited data again, but they clearly can't be trusted not to can that partway into a 2 year service contract! Live and learn. I was very pleased with the iPhone 4S and have the 5S now. It looks like the iPhone 6 Plus camera is better enough to justify the upgrade.
I like the availability of unique apps and hardware for iOS devices given the larger revenue opportunity available in that user base. The new features of iOS 8 such as being able to share music and apps among up to 5 users looks very attractive as well.
great!
great
