Before you head to a property, make sure you have both apps installed on your phone.

A Matterport Capture

Download Matterport Capture from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). This is the app that controls the scan, stitches everything together, and uploads your final 3D tour.

B Your Camera's App (e.g. Insta360)

Download your 360 camera's companion app — for example, the Insta360 app. You'll use this for firmware updates and initial camera setup. Important: once you're ready to scan, you will only use Matterport Capture — close the camera's own app to avoid connection conflicts.

C Log In to Matterport

Open Matterport Capture and sign in with your company Matterport account (the account where property images should be stored). Finish account setup first if you have not already. Confirm you can log in before you leave for a property.

Pro tip: Do all your downloading and logging in while you're on Wi-Fi at the office. Don't waste time at the property fumbling with app installs.
