For a lobby or reception screen, the online tour or the ZIP?

Last checked 30 October 2026

For a lobby or reception screen, use the online tour: open its player address (the src in the Web Embed Code on the Publish tab) in the screen's browser. It shows your own design on every plan, so Autorotate on idle works, and a change reaches the screen without copying files (when changes show). Add #pano= and a panorama's number to the address to open on one room.

A downloaded copy needs a web server of your own (double-clicking index.html is likely to show a black screen), and it is a snapshot you download again after each change. The free download is the Standard design, where autorotate is off; your own design needs a paid plan. A map window and YouTube or Vimeo videos still need the internet, and the tour has not been tried with no connection at all, so a copy does not promise a screen that works offline.

Panoramr has no kiosk mode, no timer that moves to another room and no fullscreen setting: a visitor stops the turning by touching the picture, and it starts again after 3 seconds. Autorotate and kiosk displays has the settings.
