I tried resizing a cabinet and the pop-up window would not dismiss when finished. Only way to get rid of it is to close and reopen the project, which causes a complete loss of all your changes. The LiDAR scanning process is nice, but overall the product is difficult to use, not at all intuitive, and not worth the effort. ### 3/5 — Mejorar errores y agregar más modelos de muebles *2025-02-08* Esta bien la app Pero todavía tiene muchos fallos, cuando acomodas o agregas algo en 2D y te mete a 3D no se guarda o al revés después hay momentos que se te desacomoda la cocina tienes que volver acomodar otra ves y es un fastidio. Les falta meter mas modelos de muebles, si mejoran la app yo si pago la mensualidad. Por que me puede servir para mi trabajo ### 1/5 — Waste of time and money *2024-01-05, version 1.48* Even though I bought the premium version for a month, it was a complete waste. It is so limited. It generates what it deems a floor plan and you can’t remove cabinets. Unless you have a cookie cutter kitchen and want to play around with colors or limited moving around of appliances, it is useless. ### 2/5 — Only works for rectangular kitchen? *2023-02-03, version 1.48* It seems like a handy app, but I don’t know what to get it is, if we can’t customize the shape of the kitchen room? ### 2/5 — Even to try you have to pay *2023-01-24, version 1.48* I just tried to use it but after registration if you don’t pay you cant try thats sad ### 1/5 — To clunky to use *2023-01-22, version 1.48* No acknowledgment email and not intuitive - too quick to demand payment for features. Deleted app within 20 mins. Back to the drawing board ### 1/5 — The design won’t stay centered *2023-01-15, version 1.48* The camera requirement ruins the app. I don’t want to stand in my kitchen trying to design. The design area doesn’t stay on the screen. It moves around and completely disappears. Really strange app. Deleted ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2023-01-01, version 1.48* This is meant to collect your money, nothing else. Completely worthless. ### 1/5 — Totally sucked *2022-08-26* Wanted to design a kitchen in another house. Don’t understand why I can’t just move the view but have to use camera and move iPad. Couldn’t save the design. ### 2/5 — Wont let me try without purchase *2022-08-13, version 1.48* Can’t try enough without it asking for purchase ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time or money *2022-07-17, version 1.48* The screen does nothing. It move all over. It never stay still for you do place or do anything ### 1/5 — Pretty much free to download *2022-07-04, version 1.48* Don’t waste your time ### 2/5 — Sales not design *2022-05-15, version 1.48* Definitely not a remodel perhaps useful in original bare bones design. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-01-30, version 1.48* This app is very difficult to use. It won’t let you add cabinets where you want them . ### 1/5 — Not easy to use. *2021-12-03, version 1.48* This app is very hard to use and is not as intuitive as they lead you to believe. Save your $$$. Don’t use. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2021-09-24, version 1.47* Don’t waste your time. It’s really a paid app ### 1/5 — I couldn’t even get the program started. *2021-07-13, version 1.45* I tried to start the app, and got nothing but an error message, with no indication of how to fix it. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2021-06-07, version 1.44* AR doesn’t work and keeps jumping around giving you a headache. You’re better off using a pen and paper to plan out your kitchen ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not enough free options to test *2026-02-27, version 2.25* There are not enough free options to be able to test out the app before purchasing. ### 1/5 — Lousy app *2025-03-10, version 2.19* In the simple 2D design it doesn’t have a feature to keep a wall square to another. Kinda of ridiculous. If you split a wall it makes the adjoining walls crooked. Useless ### 1/5 — CAUTION *2025-01-20, version 2.18* Proceed with caution. I opted for the one month plan at £4.99. However at the same time, £4.99 and £29.99 was withdrawn from my bank account! Also, this app is quite poor, primitive, difficult to use and continuously glitches. Save yourself time and money and avoid this app. ### 1/5 — Lame *2024-12-29, version 2.17* Have to buy literally anything to make it work ### 1/5 — Hated it *2024-11-05, version 2.13* I’m sorry, I don’t like it! ### 1/5 — Ridiculous app *2024-07-29, version 1.48* Utterly useless. Seems impossible to get views that allow anything more than approximate placement of kitchen elements. Very limited palette of appliances and finishes (even if paying for available options). A pencil and paper are much faster and more flexible. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2024-04-13, version 1.48* Absolutely impossible to use, completely unintuitive. ### 1/5 — Can’t figure out how to use and I’m not sure if my membership is canceled *2024-04-10, version 1.48* I messed around with this thing for a solid hour and just could not figure it out. It’s just simply not user-friendly. ### 1/5 — No funciona *2024-03-10* Ni siquiera me ha dejado aceptar las condiciones de uso, se bloquea ahí y no me permite hacer más. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time and money! *2024-01-14, version 1.48* My guess is whoever developed this APP knows how to design the APP an NOT a kitchen. Trying to use this APP is extremely frustrating and waste of time! As far as support with questions, your on your own! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App *2024-09-10, version 2.02* Very useful, especially while renovating the kitchen ### 5/5 — very good *2022-09-16* Good app ! ### 5/5 — Variety and Easy to Use *2021-03-26, version 1.40* I’ve never remodeled my kitchen before but with the use of ARKitchen I’ve had more fun trying to achieve my dream kitchen with the variety and easy usage of the features provided. I didn’t even know half of the appliances existed but I would 100% recommend this to a friend if they wanted to remodel their kitchen in a timely and easy manner. ### 5/5 — Fantastic apps !!! *2021-02-05, version 1.37* The best AR apps I have tired . When the first time I tried this , I don’t know how to even enter the length and width , feel totally confused about this . After I saw all the instructions and practice several times ,Now I can say I am very professional with it ! It’s so so cool and perfect for my new kitchen design . ### 5/5 — Took a weight off my shoulders. *2021-02-02, version 1.37* I was seriously stressed out about Remodeling and what I wanted to do with my kitchen. So I found this app was a bit skeptical at first but when I started using it,it changed my perspective on the remodel. It has a ton of free features that other apps didn’t have that I was looking at so I could give me a better idea of what I wanted in my remodel. Super easy to use and it was super easy to show our contractor. I definitely recommend this app even if you’re not technically savvy that’s how easy it is. ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-01-19, version 1.36* Great for those who are looking to remodel their kitchen. App provides different layout design options, finishes and appliance options and allows you to put in existing kitchen dimensions so you don’t need to demo any walls ### 5/5 — Good for a rough idea of what you want *2020-12-21, version 1.33* This app would be be great if you’re looking for a rough idea of what you want your future kitchen to look like. The app does need some bug fixes but, I’m sure they’ll be fixed in the near future! ### 5/5 — Really Useful *2020-11-28, version 1.31* My partner and I were discussing what we wanted for our kitchen and we both had different ideas. With this app we were able to combine our ideas to find and visualise a design we were both happy with. Would definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — Great for design *2020-11-25, version 1.31* If you’re thinking about getting a new kitchen and you’re terrible at visualising the design yourself, then you need to try this app. It has plenty of colours, designs and appliances to play with to allow you to build your dream kitchen. ### 5/5 — Lots of features *2020-10-27, version 1.28* It’s easy to use and they have lots of free assets and layouts/templates. You can even make a custom layout. I really recommend if you wanna design kitchens in AR or if you just wanna play around with AR. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
