Facebook has been making serious inroads in the 360-degree content game for months, taking on YouTube with rich, immersive photos and videos that put viewers right in the center of the action. To date, users have posted more than 25 million photos and a million Facebook 360 videos to their feeds, showcasing a wide array of people, places, and events. But there has never really been a great way to view them until now.
Facebook has finally released an app for viewing its 360-degree movies and photos. Powered by Oculus, the app works exclusively with the Samsung Gear VR through the Oculus site, and lets you explore and view Facebook 360 content in all its glory. No longer will you need to hold and tilt your phone to see what’s happening. You need only launch the Facebook 360 app, pop your Galaxy phone into your Gear VR headset, and you’ll be transported to faraway lands and breathtaking landscapes.
