Hotspots are interactive elements within a tour stop that can be selected to engage in additional content or media. Hotspots are overlaid on top of 360 panoramas or 360 videos to provide additional media for informational or entertainment purposes.
Hotspots are not included in the base 360º tour pricing. Contact your Client Success Manager to add this feature.
