Auto Spin

Automatically rotate your 360° view to showcase your product from all angles.

Auto spin automatically rotates your 360° view to showcase your product from all angles without requiring user interaction. This feature is perfect for creating engaging product displays that immediately capture attention.

How Auto Spin Works

When enabled, your 360° view will automatically rotate at a specified speed and for a set number of rotations. This creates a dynamic presentation that highlights your product’s features from every angle.

  • Default: 20 RPM
  • Recommended: 20-50 RPM for most products

Rotation Count

  • Options: 1-500 rotations or infinite
  • Default: 1 rotation
  • Infinite: Continues spinning until user interaction

Ease In/Out

  • Ease Out: How smoothly the spin ends (0-100)

Technical Implementation

Auto spin uses smooth interpolation between frames to create fluid motion. The system calculates optimal frame rates based on your speed settings and applies easing functions for natural acceleration and deceleration.

Mobile Considerations

Auto spin works on mobile devices but may impact battery life and data usage. Consider using shorter durations or lower speeds for mobile-optimized experiences.

Troubleshooting

Auto Spin Not Working

  1. Check that auto spin is enabled in your customization settings
  2. Verify your speed settings are within the 1-1000 RPM range
  3. Ensure your 360° view has enough frames for smooth rotation

Jerky Motion

  1. Increase the number of frames in your 360° sequence
  2. Reduce the auto spin speed
