There is no question about the immense value Periscope provides to all travel & destination marketers. In our editorial story, we had highlighted how Lonely Planet is leveraging the platform with its #LPScope project. There has been a growing demand from all consumers about the need to shoot Periscope videos in landscape mode. Finally the viewers can now hold their phones either in portrait or landscape.

A landscape mode is particularly very handy in Periscope broadcasts for all destination marketers. The beauty of a beach or a mountain becomes more enhanced in a landscape mode. Just like this beach shown above, the view becomes wider and there’s a lot more that your viewers can see. Hopefully the new landscape mode should limit camera movement requests from your viewers for better views.

This latest update applies to the Android and the iOS versions.
