TilePlanner – measure rooms, lay tiles automatically, and create a finished survey as a PDF. The practical tool for tilers, tradespeople, and everyone who plans their own project. MEASURE IT YOURSELF β€’ Draw each room with your fingertip – corner by corner. β€’ Walls are labelled with their dimensions automatically. β€’ Tap a wall to set its length and angle precisely – including angled walls and diagonals. β€’ Zoom and pan for large or irregularly shaped rooms. TILE IT AUTOMATICALLY β€’ Tile format, grout and perimeter grout freely adjustable. β€’ Laying patterns: grid, half-offset, third-offset and diagonal. β€’ The app lays the tiles automatically and distinguishes full tiles from cut ones. MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS AT A GLANCE β€’ Instantly visible: floor area plus full and cut tile counts. β€’ Recommended purchase quantity including a cutting-waste allowance. MANAGE CUSTOMERS & ROOMS β€’ Create customers and assign any number of rooms to them. β€’ All data stays local on your device. PROFESSIONAL PDF SURVEY β€’ Create a PDF per room or a combined survey across all rooms. β€’ Includes customer details, room sketch, wall dimensions, tile specifications and quantities – with totals. β€’ Share or print straight away. Ideal for quotes, orders and planning on site. TilePlanner is funded by ads. A one-time purchase removes them permanently, so you can use the app ad-free. Two notes on wording choices: β€žverfliesen" I translated as β€žlay tiles" rather than the more literal β€žtile" β€” App Store copy reads more naturally as a verb phrase this way, and the second headline keeps β€žlay tiles automatically". β€žMit einem einmaligen Kauf" says removes ads permanently, not a subscription. That wording matters legally and for user expectations, so I kept it unambiguous rather than softening it to β€žremove ads".

Verdict

TilePlanner's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 27 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
