This is part of a series of papers dealing with the convexification of curves in codimension 1 with flips (called partial inflation in this paper) [see \textit{B. Grünbaum}, Geombinatorics 5, 24-30 (1995; Zbl 0866.52001)] for a history of this subject]. The aim of this paper is to extend the validity of the results from plane Euclidean geometry [see \textit{S. A. Robertson} and \textit{B. Wegner}, Colloq. Math. Soc. János. Bolyai 63, 389-401 (1994; Zbl 0829.53003)] to spherical geometry. Here only the smooth case is considered. One additional restriction has to be imposed on the curves in the spherical case: their length should be less than that of an equator. Then everything goes through like in the Euclidean case. The planar example, leading to a circle in the convex limit, does not extend automatically to spherical geometry. Hence, such an example is an open question. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0867.00024].
