Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Orbit at 75% against 5DPlan Lidar Room Scanner 3D's 32%. 5DPlan Lidar Room Scanner 3D's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.3) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 5DPlan Lidar Room Scanner 3D sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Orbit sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

5DPlan Lidar Room Scanner 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 5DPlan Lidar Room Scanner 3D has 141 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of 5DPlan Lidar Room Scanner 3D's written reviews are positive against 75% of Orbit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

5DPlan Lidar Room Scanner 3D ships an update every 10 days, Orbit every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and July 8, 2026 respectively.
