Insta360 Studio
Insta360 Studio is free desktop software for viewing and editing footage from Insta360 consumer cameras. It handles flat video and immersive 360° or VR content, including reframing tools, and exports edited media as local JPG, MP4, DNG, MOV or INSV files. The software runs on Windows 10/11 or later and macOS 13 or later. Local batch exports have no quantity limit and process one by one; cloud batch exports allow up to 10 files at once. Studio supports horizon leveling and lists a maximum output resolution of 8K. Insta360 says ARM-based processors are unsupported, so the application may not install or run properly on ARM devices. Recommended Windows hardware includes an 8th-generation Intel Core or AMD Ryzen 3000 processor, GTX 1660 or better, 16 GB RAM and a 128 GB SSD. Mac recommendations specify Apple M1 or later, 16 GB RAM and a 128 GB SSD. Only Insta360 consumer camera users can download it.
