I just wanted to say thank you for the great introduction to PIVO. It's been such a great experience with the software and the device itself. It's so easy to use and understand, very user friendly. Your demonstration was great as well, it was easy to understand and you really marketed it perfectly, not only showing how it will help with our business but also how else the device or software can be used for so many other things. Our clients are also happy with the outcome of the tours of their properties as well as our agents. Once again thank you so much for everything. You've also always been available when I'm needing questions to be answered.

How to Create a Pivo Account
In Pivo Tour, you have access to your Pivo Account information and can also make a Contact Profile for viewers of your tour to contact you by. You can access your account information in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. Here, you'll see two tabs:
1. Contact Profile: This will be the public account viewers of your tours will have access to. Here you can update your:
- Profile picture
- Name
- Email address
- Contact phone number
- Facebook page
- LinkedIn page
- Description about you (i.e. what you do, where you work, who you are: be creative!)
2. Manage Account: This is your Pivo Account. You can edit your account information here. This account can be used to access all Pivo applications.
You can start creating a Pivo Tour directly from the main page in the Pivo Tour application at any time.
1. Press the Create Tour icon 
at the bottom of the main page
2. Connect your Pod to the Pivo Tour app (please make sure Bluetooth is on)
3. Pair the Remote Control to the Pod Black (please refer to our Support Hub article on How to Pair Your Remote Control With Your Pod)
4. Press + button on the Remote Control to start capturing
5. Pivo Tour starts capturing. Wait until the processing is complete
6. Move to the next point
7. Repeat steps 4, 5 and 6 until you have captured the whole space. We recommend capturing the entire floor in a single session
Once you finish capturing, you can Review each point. Here you can delete a point or retake it. To retake a point that you’ve just taken, simply press retake and then the + button on the Remote Control. To retake a previous point, simply follow the map back to that point and retake it in the same place.
Once you have captured each point, you can proceed to the next page. Here you can:
- View each point (by pressing on the image)
- Name each point (by pressing on
)
Press Next at the bottom of the page when done.
Note: Do not move or touch your Pivo set-up when it is capturing a tour to ensure for a seamless capture of the space. You can move around the smartphone while your Pivo is capturing to always stay out of frame.
The editing tool in the Pivo Tour app is the best way to customize your tours so that they are informative and eye-catching. You can edit your Tours in the Draft, Private and Public pages.
Throughout the editing process, you can save your progress with the Save button 
in the top right corner of the page.
1. Edit thumbnail
The first part of your tour that you can customize is the thumbnail. Here, press edit thumbnail to choose from the following options:
- Choose from scenes in tour
- Take photo
- Choose from library
Tip: If you are taking a photo or choosing a photo from your library, a panorama picture will fit best in the thumbnail.
2. Capture
The second part of your tour you can edit are the points within the tour. You can use this option to re-capture a room that wasn’t captured properly, or has had some pieces of furniture or decorations added to it.
Note: this option is only available when your tour is still in drafts. We will soon be bringing the option to add new capture points to your tour draft.
3. Review
Here you can review the captured points from your tour and delete or retake them as above. You can also edit the names of each point.
4. Floor
In this part of the editing process, you'll be able to add another floor and start capturing for the new floor. You can also name and add a floor plan to each floor.
5. Descriptions
In this section, you can customize the more public description of your tour. Here you can add the following information about your listing:
- Tour Title
- Description
- Listing details
-
- Price
- Property size
- Lot size
- Bedrooms (number of)
- Bathrooms (number of)
- Label - create your own listing detail (e.g. Tennis Courts)

- Address - here you can search for the address in Google Maps or pin your current location as an address
6. Upload
With the Upload button, you'll be able to upload your tour draft into your Private Tours folder. Once you upload a tour, you cannot retake any points of the tour, so make sure you have checked each captured point.
Note: the uploading process requires data usage, so we recommend connecting to a strong WiFi.
Once you upload a tour from Drafts, it will automatically move to your Private Tours folder. Here, you can select your tours to view them. When you view your tour, you'll be able to see:

You can also delete and edit your tour here. You can edit the following information in Private Tours:
- Thumbnail

- Lot size
- Bedrooms (number of)
- Bathrooms (number of)

Throughout the editing process, you can save your progress with the Save button 
in the top right corner of the page.
Once your tour is ready, you can upload it. To upload your tour go to Share → Settings → Share Tour → Make Public and simply turn the toggle on. You'll then be able to find this tour in your Public Tours folder. Here, you'll be able to view and edit the same information of your tour as above when it was in the Private Tours folder.
When your tour is public, you can select the tour and click the Share button 
to share the URL. This button will take you to your smartphone’s sharing pop-up menu, where you can share your tour link with anyone.
