What's the Product's Name? Photo Sphere

Describe the product in a single sentence. Photo Sphere let users capture 360-panoramas using their phone camera.

When was the product launched? Provide a specific date, if possible. This has been a bit tricky to find. I've found a source saying it launched with Android 4.2.2. Some time in 2012 seems accurate. I'm not sure if the Nexus 4 had it on day 1 or if it came in an update, but assuming it did, it would've been November 13, 2012.

When was the product discontinued? Provide a specific date, if possible. With Pixel 8 Launch on October 12, 2023. This was seemingly due to newer version of the camera app available for the phone. The removal may roll out to older devices as they get an updated version of the camera app.

What type of product was it? App, Service, or Hardware? Feature of the Camera app
