The editing tool in the Pivo Tour app is the best way to customize your Tours so that they're informative and eye-catching. You can edit your Tours in the Draft, Private and Public pages.
Throughout the editing process, you can save your progress with the Save button at the bottom of the page.
1. Edit thumbnail
The first part of your Tour that you can customize is the thumbnail. Here, press 'Edit Thumbnail' to choose from the following options:
- Choose from scenes in Tour
- Take photo
- Choose from library
Tip: If you're taking a photo or choosing a photo from your library, a panorama picture will fit best in the thumbnail.
2. Edit Capture
The second part of your Tour you can edit are the points within the tour. You can use this option to resume capturing your Tour or re-capture a room that wasn’t captured properly.
Note: This option is only available when your Tour is still in drafts. We'll soon be bringing the option to add new capture points to your Tour draft.
Click on 'Tour Editor' to edit your captures. In Tour Editor, you'll be able to view your captured Tours by each floor and you can choose to add a floor plan, review capture, resume capture or add another floor to the captured Tours.
Add Floor Plan
Click on 'Add floor plan' to add a floor plan to the selected floor. You can either take a photo or choose a photo from your gallery.
Review Capture
You can review the captured points from your Tour and delete or retake them. You can also edit the names of each point. Click on the image of the particular point to retake it.
Resume Capture
In this section, you'll be able to add more captures to the existing capture route of each specific floor. To make sure that the positions of the newly added points are accurately aligned with the existing points, you'd have to physically go to a designated point shown on the app with your smartphone so that the app can locate your current position in reference to the old capture route.
Once you've moved to the designated point, click on 'Confirm'. The app will then ask you to relocate to a second point. Follow the route to the second designated point and click on 'Confirm' again.
After both confirmations, you can now add new points to your existing route. Once you're done, click on 'Finish' to review your captures.
Note: You'd need to add least two new points for recalibration, otherwise you won't be able to resume capture.
Add Floors
In this part of the editing process, you'll be able to add another floor and start capturing for the new floor. You can also edit the name and add a floor plan to each floor.
3. Descriptions
In this section, you can customize the public description of your Tour. Here you can add the following information about your listing:
- Tour Title
- Description
- Listing Details
-
- Price
- Property size
- Lot size
- Bedrooms (number of)
- Bathrooms (number of)
- Label - create your own listing detail (e.g. tennis courts)
-
- Floors - here you can edit your floor details and add floors
- Address - here you can search for the address in Google Maps or pin your current location as the address
Note: The section(s) that aren't filled in won't be visible to viewers.
4. Upload Tour
With the Upload button, you'll be able to upload your Tour draft into your Private Tours folder. Once you upload a tour, you can't retake any points of the tour, so make sure you've checked each captured point before uploading.
Note: The uploading process requires internet connection, so we recommend connecting to a strong WiFi.
