If you own a camera that can capture 360-degree videos, now you have an easier way to share your content. YouTube now lets you upload these videos to your channel. If you watch it through Chrome (through youtube.com or through embedded videos on the browser or the YouTube Android app you can even pan around to video the different angles on your mobile devices or click the scroll wheel on your desktop.

It should be automatic in the future but for now you’ll have to do it. If you want to check out the 360-degree clips, you can see a sample video above.
