Google Street View

This app is beyond exceptional, it’s really great and i think more people should use it. i know i kind of sound like a robot writing a good review so that more people download the app but i’m not. this app is really helpful and really informative. one time i was using it and i was looking for a friends house; using this app i found a ton of fun stuff to do around her house and we actually weren’t bored that day but, anyway back to the point, this app is really good and if you are reading this review before you get the app, i highly suggest that you do because, it’s helpful in so many ways and i think it will make your life easier when trying to see what a neighborhood is like or, to see what’s around a house that you are interested in. overall i honestly, truly think that you should get this app.

Having great fun. GSV is a great tool for everyone to use. When I upload a bunch of photos at one time, I sometimes get the error "No Wifi" when I am in my office and have great Wifi. So I am not sure what to say about that. However, having these photos now connect i.e. Camera spot 1 to 2 to 3 and so on and editing the direction that is shown as the thumbnail prior to uploading so you are giving the best view / direction of the 360 is fantastic. Then taking it a step further and editing the listing to match you GPS pin point location in Google Map and adding the parking location. Now this bring the service to the public to a whole new level. The new roll out of GSV and Google Maps is truly exciting. Data Fuels the Cannon, Technology Ignites It.

If you take a 360 photo on your phone or camera and move it to this app. You can change the location (not the address, the actual exact place the pic was taken.). But when editing the photo and putting it in the correct place. You have to be able to see the pic at the bottom of the screen where you can edit the view or map... You can do that. Until you publish it. You can press select and try to change the place but at the bottom, the pic is just white so you can’t see the pic. This is a lot and I’m guessing nobody understood this. But google, please take this into consideration to fix.

I’m in love! I can pop in almost anywhere in the whole wide world and experience it from wherever I am. I can revisit places I’ve been before and/or lived before and take a walk down memory lane...or pop in and experience somewhere I may never get to see in person. I feel like I just got to revisit my favorite beach in California where I spent a great many hours, an amusement park where I used to work, and the city center in the town where I used to live. Next, I’m going to drop into the Eiffel Tower area to reminisce from my European vacation!

I am a high school teacher who invested time and money while traveling the world taking 360 images for my students that I uploaded to Google Street View for them to experience in VR mode. I purchased Google Cardboard viewers and created a number of lessons for the classroom. Last August when prepping for the new year I noticed that the VR option resulted in a black screen only. I deleted the app and reinstalled a number of times. I reached out to Google. I received questions about what version I was using. I noticed many other frustrated educators doing the same. It is now November 2019. Crickets. We have heard nothing and nothing is fixed. Complete lack of communication. Spare yourself if you are looking for VR feature. It is incredibly disheartening that Google has dropped the ball and left teachers high and dry.
