If you want to see your pet's view in 360, Insta360 action cameras like X4 and ONE RS are also perfect pet action cameras. Here are 8 awesome playtime ideas to try with your Insta360 camera!
1. Pet Collar Cam
Ever wondered what your pets get up to outdoors? Well, now you can find out! Use the GO 3S Easy Clip (included in the box) and attach it to your cat's or dog's collar for a pet camera that captures perfect, high quality POV. You get natural-looking footage of them interacting, exploring, or causing mischief. The magnet is strong enough to hold your camera no matter what they get up to, and the camera is so lightweight it's no stress or discomfort to your pet!

3. Spinning Around
"Spinning Pets" is a trend taking the internet by storm! You simply pick your pet up and spin them around to Taylor Swift's "August." The result is a sweet POV of a sometimes confused and often excited pet! Try this out with the Magnet Pendant.
4. Fetch
GO 3S has plenty of handy accessories to mount the tiny action camera anywhere. To make it the perfect pet camera, it even has a Fetch Stick! This awesome accessory is ideal for getting a unique angle when playing fetch. GO 3S sits snugly at one end and captures an amazing pet selfie. It's made of BPA-free, non-toxic rubber used in pet toys to guarantee a comfortable experience. Just remember to train your pup to bring it back, and install the Lens Guard before throwing your camera!
And don't just get creative with your shots, get creative with your mounts, too! The best thing about a versatile camera like GO 3S is the ability to put it wherever you can think of. How about a game of frisbee with the best action camera for pets?
5. Insta360 Eats
Insta360 X4 shows how fun life can be 360, especially with your pet! X4 is perfect for a simple but effective shot of their (most likely) favorite time of day. Stand the camera in the middle of their bowl or attach it to the Invisible Selfie Stick and get a new perspective of dinner time!

Who said dogs can't be influencers? The Monkey Tail Mount is perfect for walkies and gets an adorable view. The flexible mount bends into any shape you need and is super lightweight for your pet to carry around. Attach your X4 or your GO 3S with the Quick Release Mount for this shot.
Insta360 ONE RS is another excellent pet action cam for an epic dog vlog! Mount it up for a super cute dog's-eye-view of the city.
7. Invisible Selfie Stick
Try the Invisible Selfie Stick to get a third-person perspective of yourself and your pets. The selfie stick stays completely invisible in 360 footage, resulting in drone-like views that capture all the fun!
8. Tiny Planet
People say pets are too good for this world...so why not give them their own planet? With a 360 camera like X4, you can edit your incredible footage with creative effects to take it to a new level. The fan-favorite effect, Tiny Planet, is a great way to transform your 360 images into a cool perspective.
To get this effect in the Insta360 app or Insta360 Studio:
- Scroll through the video timeline and find a frame to add the effect to, or select your 360 photo;
- Pinch the screen/scroll the mouse to zoom out until it becomes a spherical shape;
- Add a keyframe with the 'plus' icon, and that's it!
