Panorama feature to be added to Camera app for Windows 10 Mobile

Leaked screenshots show that Microsoft plans to add a panorama photo feature in the Camera app for Windows 10 Mobile.

Panorama

Long time Windows Phone users might remember that Nokia launched its own Panorama app for the platform that allowed users to merge several images together to create one panoramic photo. Now WindowsBlogItalia reports the feature will be included as a new button in the camera app. It adds that the feature can be used when holding a phone in a vertical position. The user then just moved the phone from left to right to create the panoramic image.

The report adds that this new feature only works, at least for now, on the new Lumia phones like the Lumia 950 and 950 XL, but it's more than possible it will be added for other Windows 10 Mobile phones later. Windows Insiders will likely get first crack at this new feature first, before it is released to more Windows 10 Mobile users.
