Google Street View App Mac



There are a lot of amazing places in the world. Realistically speaking, you’ll never see most of them. Yeah, that’s a downer. But thanks to the wonderful thing you carry around in your pocket called the smartphone, now you can – virtually. Google Street View has for years put us in the center of a whole different place. Quite literally. Because Street View captures 360-degree footage, you can just swipe about, move ahead and look around as much as you like.

Until now, this experience was just a feature in Google Maps. Now Google has broken it out as its own app (on both Android and iPhone) and boy is it worth downloading. Let me tell you all the awesome things you can do with this new app.

  1. Google Street View is an Android Travel & Local App that is developed by Google LLC and published on Google play store on Sep 9, 2010. It has already got around 1,000,000,000+ downloads so far with an average rating of 4.0 out of 5 in play store.

How to Explore in Google Street View

The Street View app includes a lot more stuff than just what the Street View cars capture. If a Google user has publicly uploaded a Photosphere, you’ll be able to see it in the app. Same goes for any indoor shots.

When you first open the app, you’ll go through three screens that tell you just what the app is about. Even after you’re in, the app will provide helpful tips on using the app. Because Street View is a brand new app, it’s using a brand new design language. It works differently than say, the Maps app.

The app’s homescreen is divided into two parts. On the top, you’ll see a world map with points for areas with saturated Street View footage. Tap on any one of those points and you’ll zoom in. Pan around to explore. As you circle in on an area, you’ll see that the results below will be updated as well.

Now, getting to a Street View for a particular place is as easy as tapping a red dot after you’re way zoomed into the place. As soon as you do that, the app will bring up cards for every available Street View in the area. Simply tap a card to view it in full screen. Now you know what to do. Swipe to see what’s around you and tap those arrows (if available) to physically move around.

How to Explore Places Around You

While Google’s Street View cars haven’t driven in all countries, it doesn’t mean there’s nothing to see in countries like India. Thanks to the community driven Photosphere integration, there’s a lot of stuff to look around.

You don’t need any special hardware. Just your phone’s camera will do. Although if you have a supported spherical camera like Ricoh Theta S, you can use that as well.
