Handsfree Floorplans • No more measuring tape, laser distos or sketching – just walk around the building and point your iPhone/iPad at the walls and corners. • SnapMap does the rest, almost no tapping, almost no effort. Fast and Accurate • Measures typical sized rooms and buildings in a quarter of the time it takes using traditional techniques (about 2 minutes for the perimeter of an average sized house). • Measurements can be as accurate as within 3-4% of the values you would get from a laser. Review and Export • See your floorplan immediately on your phone • Export as a picture or PDF, copy and paste to another app, send by email, air drop, etc… How to get the best results from SnapMap: • Use in daylight or turn all your lights on – the brighter the better • Works well with walls that have wallpaper, surface features or exposed brickwork. • If SnapMap can’t see flat colours and featureless smooth walls, switch off Auto mode and use Manual mode • Works best with buildings that are on flat ground and non-split level rooms • SnapMap is not yet optimised to deal with walls at funny angles or curved walls
