Plan what to buy before you start the job. Scan a room with LiDAR on a supported iPhone Pro or iPad Pro, or enter it by hand. Choose tile, paint, drywall, or wallpaper and keep the estimates together in a room shopping list. Mark what you have bought as you shop. Keep each house or client in its own project, with its scans, room lists, and single estimates in one place. Pro exports one PDF for the whole house. EIGHT MATERIAL CALCULATORS • Tile & Flooring: tile counts from area and selected tile size. • Paint: gallons from wall area, average opening sizes, coats, and standard coverage. • Concrete: slab volume and 60 lb or 80 lb bag counts. • Mulch & Gravel: area and depth converted to cubic yards. • Drywall: sheet counts from wall area and selected sheet size. • Decking: boards and linear footage from deck and board dimensions. • Fencing: posts, rails, and pickets from fence length and spacing. • Wallpaper: standard double-roll estimates with pattern-repeat adjustment. CHECK THE ASSUMPTIONS Choose a waste buffer from 0–25% and use imperial or metric measurements. Material sizes, coverage, opening deductions, and layouts vary. Check your product label and measurements before ordering. Estimates do not calculate grout, adhesives, structural safety, or building-code compliance. Enter an optional price for the unit shown to get a cost estimate. That total covers the priced unit; labor, delivery, tax, and other supplies are not added. SAVE AND SHARE Keep named estimates and room shopping lists on this device. Reopen the saved inputs, choices, and notes. Pro can export a saved estimate or a combined room PDF with its material breakdown and cost when entered. FREE AND PRO Free includes Tile, Paint, Concrete, and up to two saved material estimates. A room list may use both free saves. Pro unlocks the five other calculators, unlimited saved estimates, and PDF export. Live preview and optional unit prices work in each available calculator. Pro offers weekly, annual, or one-time lifetime access. The app shows current App Store prices and available trial terms before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled through your Apple account. Apple charges your account at purchase confirmation and for renewals under the displayed terms. Manage subscriptions in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. Lifetime access is a one-time non-consumable purchase. Calculator math and saved jobs work offline. No account is required. Optional feedback uses our support service; StoreKit handles purchases. There is no cloud sync. Keep a copy of important estimates before removing the app. The app interface is in English.
