Some Street View locations are isolated panoramic photos, and the only option is to enjoy the view from your current location. Navigating in Google Earth VR Street View is reliant on there being Street View photos connected to the one you are viewing. The transition to the next Street View Image is normally almost instant. I find it much easier and more intuitive to use Street View in VR than I do on mobile or desktop. Just keep aiming your right controller at the next arrow and press the trigger to take a virtual walk around your chosen location. Simply point at one of the arrows on the ground and press the trigger to move along to the next location.

Once in Google Earth VR Street View, you can navigate around using your right controller. This is a better option if you want to spend a while in Google Earth VR Street View, navigating around the streets for a while or enjoying the view.

This is handy for quickly jumping into Google Earth VR Street View when you want to take a quick look at your surroundings. You will be transported into Street View immediately, but will only stay in Street View as long as you keep your left controller raised. Option one is to simply lift your left-hand controller up towards your head.There are two ways to enter Google Earth VR Street View. The Street View preview sphere is generally only available when you are fairly close to the ground.

You are more likely to see the preview sphere in urban areas or near popular landmarks. As with regular Google Maps Street View, it is not available everywhere. This indicates that Street View is available.

When using Google Earth VR, you will notice a Street View preview sphere appear above your left-hand controller from time to time. Enter Street View VR by clicking on the preview sphere.
