To get started for setting up your Samsung Gear 360 (SM-C200 / 1st Generation), please download the JobWalk app to your mobile Android or iOS device and log in. You can learn more about how to work with the JobWalk app in the dedicated article.

Connecting from within the JobWalk app (recommended process)

Start the JobWalk App and download/update an existing project or create a new project. Add a new floor plan/sheet or select an existing sheet of the project. Tab on the sheet to place the first image. Follow the instructions below or on the app screen for setting up the corresponding camera connection for your Samsung Gear 360 (SM-C200).

When editing an existing project, please make sure to have your HoloBuilder project downloaded/updated before connecting to the camera.
