Search bar has been removed so I can no longer use the app for generators. ### 4/5 — Off to a good start *2021-09-07, version 5.0.1* Of all the AR apps available that I have used this is the best I’ve found so far. Still leaves a bit to be desired in terms of functionality - would be great to see a transparency / wireframe toggle, this would be particularly useful when viewing larger models of environments as a way to toggle between the live camera view & projected model for blended AR. I use this app in a professional capacity & often work in locations without access to the internet, so the need to re-connect to the internet every 72h to confirm purchase history is an annoying hurdle to jump through, but I’m probably in the minority in this respect. ### 3/5 — App Icon not showing up *2021-05-20* For some reason your app does not have an icon in the settings panel all my downloaded apps are there except for this one I’m not sure if this should be of concern because your app does list requirements needed.. ex: Location etc… ### 3/5 — its fine, if you like to take pictures *2020-05-02* I dont really like it very much, because unlike other augumented reality apps, you cant record a video with your 3D model ### 3/5 — Glitches! Dumb glitches! *2019-10-03* Fantastic, the realistic objects but almost everything I augment just floats where my camera was, even if I move, it still just floats and I can’t move it or scale it, I can’t do anything to it. Please fix this, it makes me me so angry. Please fix this! ### 4/5 — Great! *2019-08-07, version 4.0.2* Awesome! But as soon as I place something it starts out tiny so I can’t see it. ### 2/5 — Fix the update *2019-05-07, version 4.0.0* For me the update was more like a downgrade. I had to log out just to look for anything and my trial didn’t even work. I followed the new tutorial but it doesn’t work. If you could fix this it would be great because before this app would have 5 star rating. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous Pricing *2018-05-03, version 3.3.1* Accounts start at $300 a month. Similar apps have a one-time fee of $5. That is absolutely bananas. I guess they’re catering to the millionaire 3D developer demographic, which is a niche to say the least... The rest of us have rent to pay. ### 1/5 — Unintelligible *2018-04-14, version 3.3.1* Seems like this app is stuck in the past. Not immediately user friendly at all. ### 1/5 — Um. Doesn't record video *2017-12-21, version 3.2.0* Sooooo...whats then point? ### 4/5 — When will it support ARkit? *2017-11-16, version 3.2.0* This app has a lot of potential for design studios. But at the moment the 3D tracking is no where near as good as the latest batch of AR apps coming out that support ARKit. These models aren’t as ‘grounded’ as apps such as Housecraft. The app foundations are there, but if you could add ARKit it would be stellar. Do it before someone else does it! ### 3/5 — Update *2017-10-04, version 3.2.0* PLEASE UPDATE THIS APP TO THE NEW ARKIT 😭😭😭 ### 1/5 — Disgusting *2017-09-24, version 3.2.0* Technological advances can be fun, but you need to think. Please tell me why character options of “Trafficked girl” and “Trafficker” exist in this app? The developers might have done a decent job with this, but I deleted this crap and will never know. ### 1/5 — Cant sign up?? *2017-09-21, version 3.2.0* Sad, they make an app you cant sign up for and say sign up online but there website doesn’t work and you have to sign up to use anything. ### 4/5 — Would be awesome, but *2017-07-31, version 3.2.0* Would be awesome, but I'd give it 5* if it had video recording capabilities, as otherwise the photos taken from this just look like mediocre photoshops ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Difficult to sign up *2025-03-23* Trying to sign up to try. Making me fill out a contact form and have to wait for someone to contact me. ### 1/5 — Website broken *2024-04-25* Cannot create account ### 1/5 — Nothing works *2022-07-23* I select an item from the list to display, then a screen wants me to wave the iPhone around to “learn the surfaces” but nothing ever happens. Then, miraculously, the one time it did advance to “tap the screen to place the object,” it never placed it. So, pretty much useless. I suspect it’s trying to be too good and feature-rich that it doesn’t fundamentally work. ### 1/5 — Models are difficult to upload *2021-10-05* The augment manager is next to impossible to get your models to upload. It’s maddening!!! ### 1/5 — I just don't get it! *2020-04-07* Obviously my fault, but I really don't understand the point. ### 1/5 — This thing is messed up! *2019-10-16, version 4.0.3* 1. I set up an account. 2. I open the app, login, click ‘scan.’ 3. I point the camera at a QR code that was published in ACS Chemical Biology. 4. I get sent to the App Store, on the Augment page, with a button to Open the Augment app. 5. I click ‘Open’ and the app tells me to scan a QR code. 6. Back to #3, and go through the cycle again. And again. ### 1/5 — Has potential *2019-01-07, version 3.3.1* Lots of models to choose from, unfortunately there seems to be no way to move the model around. I was trying to see what a tv would look like, it was stuck at waist height, could not move it to the place I wanted on the wall. Zoom in, zoom out, and rotate works great, but no ability to move position :( could be amazing, but falls drastically short due to that one missing component ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2018-10-24, version 3.3.1* I hate this app, it’s absolutely awful. It’s ridiculous, and convoluted! I hate this app almost as much as I hate goblins, nasty little creatures. ### 1/5 — All Model Have Failed To Load *2018-09-18, version 3.3.1* The error I’m given.... an error message that is mentioned nowhere on their website so I can’t even work toward a fix. ### 1/5 — R u kidding me? *2018-07-12, version 3.3.1* No where to create an account and sign up!! just a login? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Augmented Reality Furniture *2023-06-29* Very useful AR ### 5/5 — How do you login and what’s the qr code scanner for???? *2022-12-29, version 5.0.17* But it’s really coolll ### 5/5 — This is very *2019-12-29* This is very powerful and sharp and it’s great for a free app ### 5/5 — This app deserves more! *2019-08-26* Can’t believe this is not the most famous AR app put there. It just works super smooth and provides easy solutions for every user. ### 5/5 — Good for iPhone 5 *2018-04-05, version 3.3.1* I have a iPhone 5 and I’m only using this app cause arkit does not work for iPhone 5 and under so pretty good ### 5/5 — I wish there more 3D people to build a sim City *2017-03-18, version 3.1.2* This is kind of like the sims, simulated reality, we need to be able to create stories with these characters. ### 5/5 — Good *2017-03-04, version 3.1.2* Pretty amazing ### 5/5 — Works well *2016-12-08, version 2.15.4* I needed something to demo some AR for a University presentation. This has done the job well! ### 5/5 — Free Microsoft Hololens! *2016-11-26, version 2.15.4* This is the best augmented reality app ever! I saved $3000 because this app is exactly the same as the hololens. This is an all-around fantastic app! :) ### 5/5 — How to scan? Where to go to scan it? *2016-11-20, version 2.15.4* ?? --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
