Using files extracted from iPhone #3

I'm writing this here as I don't know where else to ask:

Unfortunately I have not downloaded my files in time.

I do have the app still on my phone, and just copied all the synths to my PC.

Do you have any idea how I can view/transform the folders with the syncs to .pano or to some other format?

I have a folder called deepzoom where all of the pano files are contained.

I too am in this situation. I didnt even know microsoft was killing the app and have been using it this whole time. I always only used it in local mode without an account so its worked up until now when I updated to iOS 14.5 it broke.

I was able to extract the raw file directory for the app from an iOS backup I had... but it appears as though this offline viewer was only intended to work with the exact output of whatever the websites export format was.

It would be nice if there was some way to convert the raw file formats for the panoramas I took into whatever format is expect so that I can get these to work properly.

If anyone has any insight into the exact format that is expected or a sample of an exported panorama they could share so we can maybe narrow down what files it needs and where, please let me know.
