About INSP
Insta360's 360° cameras save photos as INSP files: a JPEG of the two circles their fisheye lenses see, side by side, before any stitching. Insta360 Studio and the camera's app stitch them into a flat 360° photo, and any image viewer shows an INSP as the two circles.
After the picture comes Insta360's trailer, which holds the camera's model and settings and its lens calibration: where each circle sits in the picture and how each lens is turned.
Filepeek reads that calibration and stitches the two lenses into a sphere on your graphics card, so you can drag to look around, pinch or scroll to zoom, and switch to the flat picture. Export saves the view as a PNG and the whole sphere as an equirectangular JPEG that says it's a 360° photo.

Questions
How do I open an INSP file?
Drop it on this page or choose Peek an INSP. It opens stitched into a sphere: drag to look around, pinch or scroll to zoom, and Flat picture shows the two circles as they're stored.
How do I turn an INSP into a normal 360° photo?
Choose Save as 360° photo in Export. It saves an equirectangular JPEG with the XMP that tells Google Photos, Facebook and other 360° viewers it's a photo sphere.
Why does my INSP show two circles in other apps?
An INSP keeps each lens's picture as it was taken, and only apps that know Insta360's calibration stitch them. To those apps it's a plain JPEG.
