Users who have smartphone with gyroscope, can now take and upload photospheres from directly inside the Street View app. They can also browse the wide range of existing photospheres that Google has made available. Google has shown that it is not afraid to explore the more uncharted parts of the globe to make the Street View experience great. In March, it took to the Amazon rainforest on a zip line for its latest real-world imagery. Apple is known to be working on its own Street View rival for Apple Maps since June. While Apple was getting started, Google was the same month recording its first-ever vertical Street View imagery.
