### 4/5 — Nice tool!

*2026-07-24, version 4.12.1*

This is a nice tool!  Learned how to build my own objects.  Now it is really powerful.  I do wish the objects were more “Americanized” and modern. The objects aren’t representative of modern building supplies.  For example, no shaker style cabinet doors, no cabinet pulls or knobs, lacking toggle electrical switches…

### 2/5 — Hi

*2026-06-26, version 4.12*

Hello, I purchased Live Home 3D Pro back in 2019 and have been very happy with it for years. One of the main reasons I bought the Pro version was the ability to import unlimited models from the 3D Warehouse.
But after coming back to the app recently, I was very disappointed to discover that downloads are now limited to only 10 models per day. The app says I can either watch a video to unlock 10 more downloads or subscribe to SketchUp for unlimited access.

The problem is that no video ever appears, and even worse, I haven’t been able to download a single model for the past 3 days! The app keeps telling me that I have already reached my daily limit, even though I haven’t successfully downloaded anything at all.

this is a frustrating experience for users who already paid for the Pro version years ago. If this limitation is caused by SketchUp, the app should at least handle it properly and not lock users out because of a bug. 

As a long-time Pro customer, I feel that the value of the app has significantly decreased compared to what I originally paid for. I bought the Pro version with certain expectations, and it’s disappointing to see such an important feature become restricted years later.

### 2/5 — Falta Casas Container Marítimo!!!

*2026-05-17, version 4.12*

La App es muy buena, pero le faltan Casas con Contenedores Marítimos 40 pies (12m) y 20 pies (6m) que tan de moda están ahora por tema precios…

### 3/5 — Good but should be better than regular Live Home 3D

*2026-05-16, version 4.12*

I had used the regular version for years and was hoping this version would fix numerous glitches and oddities the other version has but the two programs have too numerous glitches to write here. I wanted to create more than two stories, but there program creates a phantom extra story that distorts stairs and is hollow. the cabinets should all be consistent in how the turning features work and the countertops don’t like up correctly. The cabinets should be one set of plane and the additional woodwork should be an add on. The flat rectangle shape is the only one that is editable, so why have the cube? Each shape should be one that can be flipped both horizontally and vertically and lengthened. there should be a a basic mattress that you can change sizes and number of pillows. (I use the flat shape now for this so I can make custom bed frames. The most annoying is the roof feature. Absolutely bizarre things happen with them , and at times the tops disappear and it creates a miniature roof along the wall line. I wish you had a true curved roof options like a gothic arch or other arched building types where the weight falls on the outside structure. This program is far easier to learn than the IPad version of Sketch Up pro, but you are less able to edit the structure.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2026-03-14, version 4.11.2*

Used the free version which was great so upgraded to the pro version. Very little difference to the free version plus frustratingly, the items that were visible but locked are now still visible and still locked. Surely the pro version would allow access to everything? That’s why we upgraded.

### 4/5 — Recommendation/Feedback

*2025-12-19, version 4.11*

I have been using Live Home 3D for many years, and I recently decided to purchase the Pro version. I truly love this app, and the creator of this app is very talented. However, I have a small suggestion. I hope the app can add more objects or packages related to food, such as food cans, cereal boxes, spam, drinks, and water bottles. In general, more small everyday objects would be very helpful.
Thank you for creating such a great app.

### 3/5 — Interior decor / asset sizes really random

*2025-11-14, version 4.11*

The sizes of assets like beds, sofas etc are all over the place. 3m wide beds. 1m high glass table vases.

It would be fine except you can't resize them. Really limiting and annoying.

### 3/5 — Great concept...but needs work

*2025-10-14, version 4.10.2*

I really like the concept behind this app and I enjoy creating my own designs, but the app crashes so frequently that it makes it impossible to be productive. I purchased the pro version thinking that it would run more smooth than the basic app, but that hasn’t been the case.

Not sure what has happened to the integration with Trimble 3D warehouse, but as of late you are no longer able to import and u group items for use. That was huge selling point and without it this app has become useless and the items within the app are subpar and limited.

### 4/5 — Superb app.

*2025-09-18, version 4.10.2*

All over app is really good. but plz add rendering option for realistic image quality.
plz ad ai render option if possible plz ad otherwise ap is really good realistic rendering option ad if you guys do.

### 4/5 — Help please

*2025-01-10, version 4.9.7*

Ok so I have a question so I got even on the live home 3d so how do I get all of my stuff moved over to the live home 3d pro because when I go to my live home 3d pro it is saying I have to buy everything over again

### 2/5 — Was great while it lasted

*2024-05-30, version 4.9.1*

***UPDATE II***You heard it here first ppl! End of May 2024. This is a problem that started on April 4th 2024. I was told at that time it would be “a couple of weeks”. After going back and forth since then, I have been given excuse after excuse. This is beyond nuts! It has been 8 weeks that this app has been unusable. This is the only app that I have paid for and I am quickly regretting it. I am getting very close to contacting the FTC as this whole situation is becoming very questionable and deceiving. ***UPDATE*** As you can read in the developers response, the issue will be fixed in a week. I guess I should’ve asked which week as it’s been two weeks, 6 weeks in total that this app has been unusable. So many promises and no fix, such a shame. I have had this app for a few years and I never had any issues. I really loved using this app for many many projects. Recently there was an issue with changing the measurements and elevation of objects. When working properly all I had to due was keep my finger on the minus option and the object would continuously move until I lifted my finger. 4 weeks ago I discovered that was not working anymore. I contacted support and was given a generic response of “we are working on an update for the issue and we don’t know when it will be fixed” which is fine. I understand that these things take time but 4 weeks? I purchased the app and several packs and they are 100% unusable. I would have hoped for a quicker fix since ppl have paid to use this app. 4 weeks and counting with no fix just seems really crazy to me and very disappointing

**Developer response:** Sorry for the delay with fixing the issue you refer to. Each release is a complex procedure that, besides fixing bugs, requires a lot of supporting activities. The update that fixes this problem should appear in the App Store by the end of May 2024.

**Developer response:** We’re sorry for delay, any update with fixes takes time, we have to make sure any fixes don’t introduce any regressions. We’ve already fixed the autorepeat decrement stepper issue, the update will be released in a week and will include some other fixes and improvements as well.

### 4/5 — Well done, thoughts on updates.

*2024-01-24, version 4.8.4*

A very thought out program, but would be better with more detail like studs, trusses, structural beams. The ability to do separate storey elevation would be nice to. Could be better with footings and more detailed foundations. As far as decorating and rearranging  a room it’s really good.

### 2/5 — Better on Mac

*2023-05-20, version 4.7*

Undo doesn’t work if editing Site. It jumps immediately to the Ground floor and then if you hit undo again all your work is lost. This is a major bug that just cost me an hour or work.

Also my Macbook Air is way less powerful than my iPad Pro yet I can do photorealistic renders on the Live Home 3D app. The iPad Pro chip is ideal for this. Please add rendering to the iPad Pro version.

### 5/5 — Quelques accessoires en plus ?

*2023-02-21, version 4.6*

Serait il possible de rajouter, dans la bibliothèque d’objets d’extérieur, des Rochers, Cailloux, Ruisseaux, Rivières, etc… ? Merci d’avance.

### 5/5 — Me encanta

*2023-01-25, version 4.5.3*

Pero tengo problema no puedo abrir ya mi proyecto tengo la versión pagada y cuando le doy en abrir no abre y se cierra la aplicación

### 3/5 — Love the app but constant issues

*2022-11-25, version 4.5.2*

I have been using this app for about two years on various projects. Recently, when using the app on my phone certain projects close on their own and when I try to reopen them, they do not and I get an error message. Have never seen this before.

### 1/5 — No customer support contacts! Default charges?

*2024-11-26, version 4.9.7*

Really sorry to write a review here; my intention is for some one to get back to me as I haven’t been able to find any contacts on the app I downloaded on my iPhone. Being a novice designer I’ve downloaded the app to see what it was. Until this morning when I checked my bank account and found that it deducted an enormous 108 dollars from my account. Being from a third world country where this is my wage for 2 weeks I’m beyond surprised and am trying every possible means to get a refund for some
Thing I haven’t even used. I honestly feel the mistake or deception lies with the developer part behaves u would be very careful to or have to think through to make an app purchase. And to be real honest I don’t even know what this apps usages are. Maybe it’s a glitch! Please please please it’s my earnest request to look into the matter as urgently as possible as this amount means a lot lot to me.

### 1/5 — Does not work EVERY time there is an update……And can NOT purchase Extra Packs

*2023-02-03, version 4.5.3*

Every time there is an update for a new version with my iPad, Whenever I go into my Library Materials folder through my iCloud, it always shows the loading symbol for a good minute and then kicks me out of the app. I always delete/uninstall the app then reinstall it and the same issue occurs. Now, the response I got back from the creators of the app before, had mentioned that it could be the materials I had saved from the 3D Warehouse could not be compatible with the new version. Now here is where I know that isn’t true and makes no sense because if that were true, then how come when I have to re-download the SAME version of the object I got through the 3dWarehouse downloads and allows me to open the tab with no problem. The Geek Squad has even mentioned it doesn’t make sense in that being the answer since I am able to re-download and no problem. So my hassle is having to no longer be able to use my saved projects ever again and feel forced in having to re-download the same stuff (each item) every time there is an update as well as re-create my creations. So therefore I will NOT be recommending this app anymore and some of my friends have already gone to other apps instead to help them in their business due to the same issues and similar reasons as to why ours react the same way with updates and it is a shame since I have spent money on all the extra packs and for this program. I have loved it for a couple years now and am just getting frustrated from the recent frustrations. I have the latest iPad Pro and have plenty of storage and GB. Not to mention I have reached out to Trimble 3d warehouse and turns out that they are not the issue. So I just feel I am getting the run around on the true meaning as to why this is an issue every time. IF there is a resolution please somebody help me. Geek squad has stated that more likely it sounded as though it was this app being more of the issue. I have tried EVERYTHING suggested though to do including contacting all who was recommended in contacting, including Apple. Thank you and this is just disappointing. :( AND Can Not Purchase Extra Materials/Packs One week ago I requested a refund on some of the extra materials packs because I accidentally purchased ones that I had not meant to that came with the last update version of this app (I do have the updated version of this app) and went through the App Store and as of 2 days ago, everything was refunded. I wanted to re-purchase some of the packs again and when I had tried to, the purchases status still showed ‘purchased’ and thinking I had to start anew or something, I un-installed and re-installed the app again and yet the status still states that. I had a few issues with the app not that long ago and sent in my review of this app last week and now this is another issue that I was told was the apps creators issue that needed to be fixed and wanted to see if that were true or not. I just noticed I was able to restore my purchases, does that mean I will be charged again with what I just got restored after receiving a refund on them two days ago? Because I understand and that is alright if so. Again, my iPad Pro is the latest one and the apps and iPad are all up to date with current versions. Never had this particular issue before but have suddenly fallen into it and am wanting to give this app another chance but no answers yet. I understand that you guys get a lot emails and so forth but if you could please help me I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you. Also if I could hear back about a solution from the review before this with a resolution to that one as lol I would greatly appreciate as well.

### 1/5 — Need serious work

*2022-03-02, version 4.3.2*

I about lost my mind with the way they made the 2d wall layout! You try to adjust a wall and it just starts making extra angles. You pull the wall longer it creates a angle. You try to fix that angle and it creates another angle like seriously what on earth. If I’m leaving a review about how crappy it is that means it real CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Katastrophal

*2022-01-02, version 4.2.1*

Intuitiv ist wirklich anders. Bei dem Gelände werden nach dem Erstellen keine Bemaßungen angezeigt, Wege lassen sich nicht genau einzeichnen usw. Wir hätten gerne unser Geld zurück.

### 1/5 — No go for iPhone and desktop

*2021-11-13, version 4.2*

Cannot use on iPhone and then on Microsoft desktop- have to buy both.

### 1/5 — Trop nombreux beugs

*2021-04-26, version 4.0.2*

Inexploitable, beug en permanence.

### 1/5 — Horrible don’t waste your money

*2021-03-07, version 3.8.3*

Don’t even bother . Complete waste of money. Difficult to use. No instructions.... awful

### 1/5 — 3D Pro

*2021-02-14, version 3.8.3*

Absolute rubbish!
You can buy a lot of pen & paper for $30
Don’t waist your money

### 1/5 — Making me pay twice to upgrade!!!!!!!

*2020-12-19, version 3.8.3*

I upgraded through in-app purchase to pro from the free version. I also bough all but the landscape package. It never upgraded. I just had to purchase the pro version through the App Store only to find that not only am I paying for the app AGAIN, but I have to buy all the expansion packs AGAIN as well!!! VERY disappointed. I need this to be made right.

### 1/5 — It double charged me

*2020-08-02, version 3.8.2*

I was upgrading my live home 3D to pro 3D but instead of upgrading the app I had it downloaded and new one so the regular live home 3D has my projects but not upgraded and the new one has nothing, could they apps be merged or can I be refunded because I truly do enjoy the app.

### 5/5 — Beste App! 😍

*2026-04-04, version 4.11.3*

Ich habe lange nach einer 3D App gesucht, mit der ich Häuser und Räume planen kann. Ich verwende die App auf meinem iPad und bin begeistert. Habe mir direkt noch das Zusatz Paket gekauft und muss sagen, die App lässt kaum Wünsche offen und ist mega einfach zu bedienen; man hat es ganz schnell raus. Einrichtung, Außenanlagen, Details, Wandstärken …. ein professionelles Programm, das große Freude bereitet. Danke, auch dafür, dass es bezahlbar ist. Ich kann nicht aufhören, zu planen und kreativ zu sein.

### 5/5 — New Bathroom

*2025-11-25, version 4.11*

Great app easy to use.

### 5/5 — So easy to use, really helps with renovations

*2025-06-25, version 4.10*

I started with the Mac app as we were struggling to visualise some renovations and I tried a few free apps but loved all of the predefined objects in this one that let me decorate a room to properly visualise it.
Over the years I’ve added to my plan so now I have the full house (and I bought more object libraries to make it look more realistic). I also bought the phone and iPad apps as they are great on the move, and an easier way to share details.
I can’t fault this app/program - I’m grateful to the team that produced it. It’s saved my marriage getting things in the right place, and thousands of £’s avoiding silly building mistakes.

### 5/5 — Super App

*2025-05-02, version 4.9.8*

Kann so ziemlich alles, was man sich von einem Wohndesign Programm erhofft. Ich hatte zuvor noch ein paar verbesserungswünsche, an welchem aber wohl zurzeit gearbeitet wird.

### 5/5 — What’s going on!?

*2024-04-17, version 4.9*

Is the app bugging or something the objects look grey and weird it’s been a amazing app for my projects but lately it’s been not so good, is it my phone?

### 5/5 — So so so much better than the other one

*2024-01-07, version 4.8.3*

I love this app so much more than the other, because there’s so many more (Advanced/Professional) features and a new mode 
And if It’s a great deal #great professional app!

### 5/5 — Umbau geplant

*2023-10-13, version 4.8*

Sehr gutes und einfach zu bedienendes Tool. Ich bin begeistert

### 5/5 — Hi there

*2023-08-16, version 4.7.3*

Is there any possible way to export this to flipsidexr directly? So i can see myself within what i created with your app? If so that would be super.

### 5/5 — Eine Anwendung, wie andere hätten werden wollen/sollen …

*2023-02-21, version 4.6*

Live Home 3D Pro begleitet mich nun seit 6 Jahren. Mittlerweile auf dem Mac und iPad. Und das hat weit mehr als nur einen Grund!

Wo der Mitbewerb damals mit kinderleichter Bedienung für erste Ergebnisse zu locken versuchte, war LH 3D Pro von Beginn an deutlich mehr als eine Spielerei. Hier wird all das geboten was andernorts fehlt.
Deshalb darf die Kreativität in die eigenen Ideen, den eigenen Entwurf fließen, statt in Überlegungen fehlende Funktionen zu umschiffen.

LH 3D Pro wurde und wird seit Jahren in seinen Fähigkeiten erweitert und lässt mit ein wenig Einarbeitung selbst ambitionierte Erwartungen im Ergebnis übertreffen. Unser Architekt konnte mit den Plänen sehr leicht nachvollziehen “wohin die Reise gehen soll” und nahm sie dankbar als Grundlage für seine Arbeit.

Heute kamen nun neue InApp-Angebote von BeLight Software herein. Auch diese so ehrlich und attraktiv in Gestaltung und Preis wie die Anwendung an sich.
Dennoch hatte ich eine Frage dazu, stellte sie und bekam in weniger als 2 Stunden eine freundliche, kompetente und zielführende Antwort!
Diese Erfahrung machte ich bereits zu Beginn meiner LH 3D Pro Nutzung, somit vor 6 Jahren.
Sie halten die Qualität - in Produkt und Support!

Dafür von mir volle Punktzahl und eine ehrliche Empfehlung für eine leistungsstarke, gute Software mit vorbildlicher Betreuung von einem seriösen Anbieter! 👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻

### 5/5 — Indispensable

*2023-02-21, version 4.6*

Une application que j’affectionne particulièrement. Performante, simple, compatible avec tous les iDevices… 
Bravo !
Seul petit grief : la possibilité de générer des rendus sur iPad et Mac sans passer par Radeon Pro Renderer qui ne se sert pas des performances des puces Apple.
