    How to set the correct compass direction.
    Information in 360 panorama photos is often processed through photoshop, so the compass direction is lost.
    When turning on compass in wpvr, it will not be accurate.

    I propose one more function in wpvr, which will select coordinates
    Setting the East (sunrise) or West (sunset) direction proactively according to hotpost will be more accurate.

    For example, in the photo, the sun actually sets in the West, but on the compass it is East

    Hi @anhkha2000,

    Thank you for bringing this new feature idea to our attention. We understand that this will greatly enhance the user experience by providing more precise compass directions, especially when the compass direction is lost during processing in Photoshop and we really appreciate your valuable input.

    Currently, although this is not on our roadmap. However, I have discussed it with our product development team, and we will surely look for the scope to implement this feature in our upcoming quarter.

    Thank you once again for your suggestion and for helping us improve WP VR.

    Best regards,

    Thank you for the feedback from the development team
    This is a very important function

    Matterport is doing a good job with compass navigation. They apply when users click on hotspot points, keeping the orientation the same.


    For example, I want to go to the East, and click on that hotspot. When I move to that scene, the default direction is East. It helps make the 3-dimensional space more realistic, which will be better than the current WVPR every time I click on the hotpot. different viewing directions, causing headaches and dizziness.


    And then the default view setting only applies to the first scene, the following scenes will depend on the direction the hotpot clicks.
    Hope the team improves the navigation function
