      Hello everyone,
      I am an absolute beginner here and have the following question about 360° photos (no videos).
      I am currently using Google Street View to post a 360° photo in the exact spot where I took the photo. But the Street View app will be discontinued soon.
      So I'm looking for a way to publish a 360° photo in the future in such a way that it is displayed in Google Maps in the Street View layer.
      I can only use Street View Studio for videos, not for photos.
      And when I use Google Maps, I have to assign the photos to an "object" (monument, cafe, etc.), but that's not exactly what I want, I want to place it freely.
      I take the photos with my smartphone and have them on the PC, so I'm "just" looking for a tool that can publish these photos as described.

      Now my questions:
      Is this possible with Gothru?
      And if so, how does it work?

      Thanks in advance

        @zauberer_01 Yes, it's possible to do that with GoThru. The process is very easy and if you want to upload 4 or less panoramas it's free.

        1. Create a new Tour, for the Business, where you want your panoramas uploaded
        2. Upload your panoramas
        3. Open the Desktop Moderator, and position panoramas where you want them to be, and also you have the option to connect them
        4. Go to Google Publishin section, and publish the images to Google.

          Hello,
          thank you very much for your answer.
          I think, I have done the steps 1 - 3 (see picture).
          But what do you mean with the topic 4?
          Is this a step somewhere in the GoThru-Tool, or in Google Maps?
          I don't know, where and how I can publish the image to Google.
          I would be very happy about your help.

            I've done it now. I hadn't previously connected to my Google account. After that it worked.
            But I have one more question: Do I always have to enter a “business”? For example, I would like to stand on a forest path and take a picture there. So the photo has nothing to do with any business.
            Is that possible?

              @zauberer_01 Yes, you can just put in a near by address, then when you publish on the Google Publishing page, you click on Advance and unassociate the panoramas, so they do not have a PlaceID
