Frequently asked questions
Short, factual answers about PtgUI licensing, platforms, and delivery.
What is PtgUI?
PtgUI is a panorama stitching application that turns a set of overlapping photos into a complete 360° panorama and VR-ready images. It is sold as a one-time license — Standard 99 USD, Pro 125 USD — with no subscription and no monthly billing. It runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs, supports 6 interface languages, and the activation code is delivered automatically on your order page right after payment.
Is PtgUI a one-time purchase or a subscription?
PtgUI is a one-time purchase. You pay once for a perpetual license of the edition you choose; there is no subscription and no recurring billing. Minor updates and lifetime support are included, as described on the product page.
Which platforms does PtgUI support?
PtgUI runs on Windows (Windows 10 build 18362 or later, including Windows 11) and on Apple Silicon Macs (M-series chips) with macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or later. Please confirm that your device meets these requirements before purchasing; one activation code covers one device.
How do I get the software after payment?
Delivery is automatic. As soon as your payment is confirmed, your order page shows one activation code together with the installer download link and a step-by-step installation guide. We do not send codes by email.
What is the difference between PtgUI Standard and PtgUI Pro?
Both editions share the same stitching core. Pro adds HDR panorama creation, masking, viewpoint correction, exposure fusion, the patch tool, and batch builder control-point generation, among other advanced features. The complete feature-by-feature comparison is available on the Features page and on each product page.
Which 360 cameras and drones does PtgUI support?
PtgUI works with photos from a wide range of 360 cameras and drones. Recent updates added lens profiles and improved handling for the Insta360 X6, DJI Osmo 360 II, DJI Avata 360 and DJI Pocket 3, and photos from DJI drones (including the Mavic 4 Pro) are positioned automatically using embedded metadata. Insta360 .insp files can be opened directly. See the version updates page for the full list.
