Panols Allows iPhone Photographers to Share Panorama Shots on Instagram.
Split any photo from your photo library into 3 squares to post into Instagram. With the ability to see metadata information and able to edit and organize your photos with tags, descriptions and titles.
1. Select a photo
2. Split into three
3. Post to InstagramPanols allows photographers to share the panoramic photos taken with their iPhone, as well as other photos stored in their Photo Library, with Instagram users everywhere. The app takes the Panorama shots stored in the device’s Photo Library, and accurately splits the wide-shot into three separate shots, allowing users to take advantage of the Instagram profile display grid to showcase them in their full glory via the social network’s standard three-across display view.
Edits to photos sync with your Photo Library without effecting the original.
“I’ve always been frustrated with the way Instagram reduces any photo to a square view, no matter what the original format might be. This limitation destroys the majestic view of a properly framed Panorama shot,” said Panols designer Juan Arreguin. “So, we created Panols. Panols can be used by any iPhone photographer to display their Panorama photos the way they were meant to be seen. Users are no longer shackled by the limitations of Instagram, and instead can share their wide-screen shots in a fun and creative way!”
