Hi DDFS, 

currently,  there's still no simple and native solution to view a 360° picture on the Vive Focus 3. There is a video player (Vive video) to play your 360° video (mono and stereo) , but it does not support 360° pictures. 
you'll have to convert your pictures to mp4 (h264/h265) and play them in the viewer. ( it is quite surprising that this kind of basic  function  is not integrated in the Focus 3) . 

I tested the following spec and it works pretty well   : 

Video 360°+ Stereo ==> Max 5760x5760 pixels / Codec H265 / 25 images seconde (or less if you don't have any anim in your 360°)  / res 5760x5760 
Video 360°+ Mono ==> Max 7680x3840 pixels / Codec H265 / 25 images seconde (or less if you don't have any anim in your 360°)  / res 7680x3840

Hope this helps you,

West

Hi West, 

Thank you for sharing your experience with viewing 360° pictures on the Vive Focus 3. It's unfortunate that the Vive video player doesn't support 360° pictures natively. Converting pictures to mp4 format is a good workaround, but it would be nice to have a built-in solution.

Regarding your suggestion for editing and viewing 360 photos, Picsart App is a great option. It allows users to edit and add effects to their 360 photos. Additionally, users can view their edited 360 photos in VR mode using Google Cardboard or similar VR headsets.
