About this app

This is a solution to access camera images and videos on Samsung Gear 360 (2017 version) camera.

As the official Samsung app is not working on Android 11, this solution is a workaround to continue using Gear 360 with Android mobile phone.

This application requires:
1. To install the http server on the camera
2. To run the camera in Street View (OSC) mode

Please see the detailed instructions on my Github repository for installation and connection. URL to Github repo:
https://github.com/ilker-aktuna/Gear-360-File-Access-from-Android-phones

The http server on camera will serve the files on OSC (Streetview mode) And the android application will access the files, copy them to the phone.

This application also stitches the images and videos to photosphere (360 panorama) format on user request (STITCH function)
After the stitch operation, metadata for identification of the files as 360 degree panorama is also injected to the jpg and mp4 files.

All images & videos copied from the camera are copied and saved on the phone's external storage Gear360 folder. If stitching function is used, the stitched files are also saved on the same folder.

Video stitching takes a long time.

Not perfect, but working! There are some UI bugs when your layout is used on untested font/screen sizes. Also, the stitching quality is not as good as Samsung's (no interpolation, no parallax adjustment mid-stream...). On the other hand, this program works on modern Android, and successfully copied/stitched videos the official software crashed on. Thanks for breathing life into a paperweight, dev.

It's a great app for importing your files from the Gear 360, and the photo stitching works well too, but the only problem is video stitching. It takes too long, even with a 5 seconds video, it took ages to complete. Maybe it depends on the phone specs too, idk but one thing for sure is that i hope in the near future, it would perform well for video stitching on any kind of phone. For now, 5 stars for the effort and help. Thank you!
