Please note: the app interface is in German. This English page describes what the app does; menus, buttons, PDF reports and exports are in German. LiDAR Aufmaß turns your iPhone or iPad into a room scanner. Scan a room in seconds with the LiDAR sensor – the app automatically creates a scaled floor plan and calculates areas, perimeter, ceiling height and volume. Developed by a craftsman for everyday interior fit-out work. HOW IT WORKS Point the camera at the walls and walk once through the room. The LiDAR scanner captures walls, doors and windows – no folding rule or laser distance meter needed. You see the result straight away as a 2D floor plan in the app. TWO SCAN MODES • Floor plan scan: detects walls, doors and windows automatically and delivers a clean floor plan – also for sloped ceilings and gables. • 3D scan (mesh): captures the room surfaces visible during the scan as a 3D model. AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENTS • Floor area, wall areas and ceiling area • Perimeter and room height • Room volume • Length of every single wall • Living area according to the German WoFlV rules FLOOR PLAN & EXPORT • Scaled 2D floor plan in the app, with zoom • PDF report with floor plan and a clear table of measurements • DXF export for further work in CAD programs • List of all rooms as PDF and CSV for Excel • Share the 3D model as USDZ • Wall view with windows and doors for each wall • Add and edit doors and windows afterwards (useful on building sites where doors are not yet installed) MADE FOR PROFESSIONALS • Several rooms per project, clear project list • Scan and edit without internet (syncing between devices needs a connection) • No extra app account, no sign-up • Sync between your devices via your own iCloud • Optional sync with your own server (off by default) HARDWARE NOTE Room scanning requires a device with a LiDAR scanner: iPhone 12 Pro and newer (Pro models) and iPad Pro from 2020. PRIVACY Projects, rooms and measurements are synced between your devices via the private area of your iCloud; the raw 3D data stays on the device. We have no access to it. The camera and LiDAR are used only for measuring – no photos or videos are stored or sent to us. No analytics, no advertising. An app by Scheeren Digital.
