About

FromHere

Features
Read full description

See your space from somewhere new. FromHere transforms a spatial scan of your room into an interactive reconstructed space you can explore from different points of view. Scan an indoor space with your compatible iPhone. Then choose where you want to see from — an object, a wall, a corner, or your own custom point — and FromHere moves you into that perspective. SCAN YOUR SPACE Capture the structure of an indoor space using your iPhone's spatial-scanning capabilities. PICK A VIEWPOINT Choose an object, wall, corner, floor position, or another point in your reconstructed space. SEE FROM THERE Enter the selected viewpoint and look around the reconstructed space from that position. COME BACK ANYTIME Your spaces and saved viewpoints stay on your device, so you can reopen them without scanning again. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-in. No cloud storage for your spaces. FromHere processes and stores spatial data locally on your iPhone. FromHere displays a reconstructed spatial model rather than a photograph or photorealistic recreation. Requirements: The spatial scanning experience requires a compatible LiDAR-equipped iPhone.
