I have a Panorama image in my app and when it loads on the phone it is blurry. It’s like when you remote desktop into another computer and you have the color settings way down. The gradient is made up of 6 colors and I can count them from the big blocky change.
Is there something special that needs to be done for an image to work as a Panorama background?
