Make sure the

Display as a 360 photo

box is checked. This option will be in the lower-left corner of your image. Facebook will recognize a panorama when you upload, and this box will be checked by default. 360 photos show up on your News Feed with a compass icon. Other users can click and drag around the panorama to create a 360-degree feeling while viewing your photograph.

• Alternatively, you can uncheck this box and post your photo as a single panorama. This will show your full panorama in one single shot instead of a 360 photo.
