You don't need to keep your hands too steady, just pan around steadily in as straight a line as possible and not too fast and you should get great results. The square guide will actually let you know if you're getting too deviated from the panorama line or if you just moved too fast, letting you go back or up or down back to where the picture needs to be.

You just have to try your best and follow the on screen guide. I'm still learning how to use it myself.

Here's some of my shots. I need to work on keeping my hand more steady though!

Wow, if you want to send a Panorama picture to Instagram that is either gonna be super cropped (thus, making the panorama pointless) or extremely tiny when crammed into that little square. But it can be done. I use Photo Grid to throw those pictures into an Instagram-ready frame, but I usually fill that up with two or three pictures; otherwise you end up with a lot of empty space, just as if you were watching a 16:9 movie on a 4:3 TV (Black Bars).
