STEP 2 Click Shutter button below to start shooting panoramas. Move your iPhone slowly and steadily and try to keep the arrow on the screen close to the center line. If you are moving too fast, there will be prompt reminding you to slow down. If the arrow is too far away from the center line, you should move your iPhone up or down according the prompt on the screen. After you have done, click the Shutter button again, the panorama photo will be saved on your iPhone.
