Wow

To have software like this on a phone is amazing. My only reason for 4 stars is that I can’t seem to open a saved file again, not sure if this is just a bug. Other than that, it’s fantastic.

Money Back Please

This app is not worth the money as you can’t use the forward camera.
It also slow and keeps crashing.

Waste of money

It doesn't do a good job scanning at all. Waste of money I wish I could get my money back.

We are sorry for your experience with STL Maker. Please check out this tutorial on getting a good scan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rVRdd-q9yM

Uses the selfie camera. Impossible to use for scanning objects

Useless

Please see our YouTube channel for scanning tips: https://www.youtube.com/c/Scandy3D Getting good scans is very easy with a few simple methods.

Alpha version at best

If I could check this app before paying the $10, I wold never buy it. I cannot make a single scan as the tracking stops working before I can finish the 360 degrees rotation. Also the saved files cannot be re-open or deleted from the app. Even the file info shows the date only and no time, so it is difficult to even figure out what to share. Although, on the other hand, the quality is so bad that northing really to share. And this is not only the noise, but distortions and incompleteness of the images. Even if the app was free, I would delete it after wasting an hour or so. It’s shame to charge money for this nonsense.

iPad Pro 2020 support

When are you planning to support world-facing camera with Lidar sensor?

As soon as Apple provides access to the depth map generated from the Lidar sensor.

Good app but I wish it let you switch to the front facing camera

The scans of my face are coming out well but that’s just about all I can scan with the inner camera. If it would allow you to switch to the front facing camera and scan anything else that would be excellent!

there is no depth sensor on the world facing camera, so we cannot provide that functionality.

Useful app but still missing .5mm

Really great app for what the allow you to do with it. You said in June you’d add .5mm resolution in the next update, but last months update didn’t have it. Really disappointing that this is still a downgrade of the ScandyPro, .5mm makes a huge difference.

Also wish I could actually look at the library in 3D after saving the files. Seems silly there’s only thumbnails. I’ve done multiple scans of the same item and couldn't review them later to see which was better without moving them to a PC.

Still love the app tho, great work.

We've updated the app and 0.5mm resolution now works again. Thank you for your patience!

Great Potential

Just scan an item into Fusion 360 and the dimensions are basically correct.

I would like to see some basic cropping/editing features before I save the file.

Also, it is not clear if I should rotate the phone or the object.

Add the ability to remotely stream to another device while scanning.

Add different output formats.

You can get basic cropping and editing features in Scandy Pro. The app and the editing features are free, and you can import your scans from STL Maker into Scandy Pro.

Good start

Great for it to be non subscription based but it loses tracking very easily. Would be great if there was a .5 option like ScandyPro.

Hey Camus2u! We will add the .5 option in our next release. The tracking capabilities are no different between the two apps. We do understand your frustration and are working hard to improve our tracking overtime. Thanks!

Why did I just spend $15?

I’m not sure what functionality this app provides that isn’t in ScandyPro... If this is an old app that had since been replaced by it then I’ll just use ScandyPro and I’d like a refund on this one.

Hey smilingkevin, we've provided this application to those who don't want to pay a subscription fee and only need STLs. Thanks for using Scandy Pro!

Please make it keep the phone awake.

This works really well but it’s a royal pain having to go in to settings and stop my phone sleeping every time I want to scan anything. I then have to remember to turn screen sleep back on again afterwards.

Needs work

Getting better scans from much cheaper apps . I was disappointed thought the extra cost would mean better scans

Please let us know specifically what we can do to improve the app.

Works

Make sure you update your OS. Works pretty well

Timely and awesome

A very good scanner.

Thank you for creating a fully non-cloud-dependent, using-device-capabilities, non-login, non-social-centric, non-subscription; easy to use and working stl scanner!

I deleted several scanning apps when they required logins and their-server storage. I just want a scanner not a relationship!

Put in an OS share button for the scan and then I’ll bump the rating to a 5.

We now have a way to share scans from within the app - hope this helps!

I’m very pleased with the results from this app, the smoothing seems to work well so far. Yes it is comparatively expensive but in my opinion good value as it is a one off payment. Thanks for the app guys keep up the good work!
