## What is 3D Scan Pro?

This app requires an iPhone with LiDAR sensors (iPhone 12 Pro or a newer Pro model).

A captivating 3D scanner app to convert everyday items into actual 3D models. Preserve digital copies of your cherished objects, capturing their details in high-fidelity for future generations. Share 3D scans with family and friends, or relive captured objects in augmented reality to explore them from every angle again. Export 3D models in various file formats (like USDZ, STL, OBJ, PLY, ABC) to use them outside of the app, such as for 3D printing, or convert your 3D scan into a video. 3D Scan Pro leverages advanced LiDAR-powered photogrammetry technology, putting the power to transform real-world objects into precise 3D models right at your fingertips. Delight in the adventure of transporting your physical surroundings into the digital sphere.

Features
• Digital Preservation: Effortlessly capture cherished objects as 3D models.
• Cutting-edge computer vision algorithms to create lifelike 3D models.
• User-Friendly: Skip the master’s degree in 3D photogrammetry and start scanning with ease.
• Privacy by Design: Everything is computed on-device. It’s magic.
• Relive 3D-captured memories in augmented reality.
• Sharing: Easily share your captured objects, so your friends and family can explore your models in 3D or AR.
• No Internet Required: Operate entirely offline, with no need for an internet connection to scan, process, or store your models.
• Accuracy: Advanced LiDAR-powered photogrammetry enable high definition scans for superior results.
• Export 3D models as Videos, Image Sequences, USDZ, STL, OBJ, PLY, or ABC files.

Privacy
• The 3D scanner feature requires camera permissions to function, as it captures multiple images to compute and generate a 3D model.
• Everything is performed on-device. All of your images and 3D models remain offline, on your iOS device, where they belong.

Limitations
• Some objects are challenging to scan. Avoid objects that are reflective, transparent, or contain very thin structures.

### 1/5 — Does nothing but crash on an iPhone17 Pro 🤦‍♂️

*2026-04-11*

Completely unusable without an update. However, as it doesn’t appear to send crash logs, how will that happen?

### 5/5 — ★★★★★ vs fool that rated this one ★

*2025-10-03*

Pay attention:  you need an iPhone that has a LiDAR sensor (or an iPad Pro that does) to scan objects to make 3D models.

3D Scan Pro has a beautiful user experience and ease of use for a function that many people mistakenly think is beyond their capabilities.

I love the premise: “Start preserving digital copies of beloved items, capturing their details for you, and future generations…” …in three dimensions! 

Try it. It’s free, and the Pro version at barely more than a buck a month with a year prepaid in Canada (we don’t see reviews from the rest of the world), it’s worth the additional features and to support a very cool developer who has really sweated the details here.


P.S.
I’m confident of having fun with this really useful app because I also have App Ahead’s “Folder Quick Look” (three words) app from the Mac App Store, and it’s a genius solution to seeing inside folders, .ZIPs etc. without opening yet another window.

It even works on aliases of folders.

### 1/5 — 慎用

*2025-06-09*

大模型给推荐过来的，占了名称的优势，极其不靠谱，白花了68元。

### 1/5 — Enganação

*2025-03-31*

Não funciona. Dinheiro jogado fora.

### 1/5 — App stürzt ab

*2025-03-22*

Hallo, ich habe leider Probleme beim hinzufügen von weiteren Scans, indem die App dann immer wieder abstürzt. Und manchmal stürzt die App auch ab beim generieren von 3D. Ich verwende das IPhone 15 pro. Dafür, dass die App so nicht für Scannen benutzt werden kann sind die 9 Euro rausgeschmissenes Geld. Kann ich in dem Zustand nicht empfehlen!

### 3/5 — App Ok

*2025-03-16*

Aufbau und Bedienung der App ist einfach, verständlich und gut.
Leider stürzt die App ständig ab, wenn ich dem gleichen Objekt einen weiteren Scan hinzufügen will.
Ich habe das iPhone15proMax

### 3/5 — Stürzt ab

*2025-02-27*

Bitte nachbessern ! So, momentan nicht brauchbar . Sonst möchte ich gerne mein Geld zurückhaben

### 1/5 — Abstürze

*2025-02-17*

Sobald man das ge-scannte Objekt als 3D Generieren will, stürzt die App ab. 
Unbrauchbar. 
Gerät: iPhone 16 Pro
iOS 18.3.1

### 5/5 — Very good

*2025-02-12*

Dose a good job

### 5/5 — Tolle App

*2025-01-21*

Sehr Benutzer freundlich und liefert gute Ergebnisse
