Description

Create 3D scans using the 3D camera (FaceID or LiDAR) of your iPhone 14, 14 Pro, 13, 13 Pro, 12, 12 Pro, 11, 11 Pro, XS, XR, X or iPad Pro! Export scans into STL, PLY, OBJ, GLB (glTF), share them and more. On older devices, you can use the ordinary camera mode or the Screen Sharing feature.

This app is *PAID* up-front. Why is it free-to-download then? To protect people with unsupported devices from buying it (more details at the bottom of this text).

Heges is divided into two modes:

= 3D Scanner (**PAID**, requires one-time In-App Purchase)
============================
- Available only for the iPhone X, XS, XS Max, XR, 11, 11 Pro, 12, 12 Pro, 13, 13 Pro, 14, 14 Pro and iPad Pro with TrueDepth camera and/or LiDAR sensor as an In-App Purchase (Why? Read more at the bottom.)

- Create 3D models by scanning everyday objects
using the selfie TrueDepth camera (FaceID) and/or the rear LiDAR sensor

- After scanning, export the models into PLY, OBJ (both with colors),
STL, GLB (both without colors) file formats

- Share exported models e.g. via built-in Wi-Fi server or
view them in the iOS Files app

- Use the physical volume buttons to toggle scanning session

- Double-tap anywhere in the live camera view to Share Screen with another iPhone/iPad,
so that you can better see what you're scanning

- View the models in AR

- You can scan in pitch-dark environment and use Heges as a night vision camera!

- Choose from the available scanning precisions — the higher
the precision, the shorter the scanner range

- To get the most accurate scans, you must use the selfie FaceID camera with 0.5MM Precision settings; do not use LiDAR if you need accurate scans

- The selfie FaceID camera is much more accurate than LiDAR (approx. one order of magnitude),
the models in the promo videos were scanned using the selfie FaceID camera of iPhone X

- Use the selfie FaceID camera for scanning fine details (up to 2 millimeters accuracy with FaceID and 0.5MM Precision settings)

- Use LiDAR for scanning large areas (e.g. houses, hallways, rooms, etc.), LiDAR is NOT suitable for scanning small objects with detail — use the selfie FaceID camera for this purpose

- Objects in scanner range are highlighted in the live view

- Switch to the passive Night Vision where there're no
explicit restrictions on the scanner range

Instructions for the 3D scanner:
- Move slowly when scanning

- Make sure that most of the captured scene is within
the scanner range

- Please read the FAQ at https://hege.sh/faq

The scanner isn't perfect and can fail when moving too fast or scanning a challenging environment (e.g. glass surfaces cannot be captured due to the nature of the TrueDepth sensor).

A NOTE FOR iPHONE 13 and 14 USERS: The iPhone 13 and 14 lineups introduced new TrueDepth (FaceID) camera designs, which produce lower-accuracy results compared to older devices.
To get best scan accuracy, consider using any iPhone 12 or older with FaceID.


= Color camera mode
============================
- Available for all devices

- Manual camera focus

- Sharing photos via built-in Wi-Fi server


= Why don't you make the app paid on the App Store? Why the annoying In-App Purchase?
============================

It's for protecting people with unsupported devices. (I wish I could make it paid directly on the App Store.)

Heges needs the 3D-sensing selfie FaceID camera to be able to capture 3D scans. But not all iPhones/iPads have the FaceID camera, so the app needs to check if your device has FaceID before it allows you to buy the app.

The App Store does not allow developers to check if your iPhone/iPad has FaceID, so the only way to check is if you download and open the app. Once you open Heges on your device, it will check if your device is compatible and if isn't, then you will not be able to buy it.


If you have any questions just drop me an email at [email protected] and I'll be happy to help you :)!

Very straight forward

Fobbar2342 on

Nice app which focuses on the essentials. Basically und the phone in-built Lidar to generate a mesh of the environment. I like the could free approach.

Awesome 3D scanning app!

MrJeager on

I use this app all the time when I need to do a quick scan and don’t have my full scanner hardware. Works great on iPhone 15 Pro and iPad Pro. I do wish there was a remote companion app so I can see what’s on the screen while scanning using the front FaceID scanner.

So bad, scans unusable

Macmadman on

For $10 the performance should be way better. Every scan was laughably bad. Not worth it. Save your money.

Best 3d scanner

ravisorg on

This is easily the best 3d scanner for phones with Face ID built in, and no subscriptions / local processing clinched the deal (I don’t want my face being stored on someone else’s servers, which is apparently a thing some scanning apps do). You can get decent scans immediately, and if you experiment for awhile you can get really high quality high res scans from it (depends on how you move the phone and how you scan). Cleanup in something like meshlab is easy once you download the settings from the heges site. Overall really happy with this, has saved me buying an expensive hardware scanner to use!

Useless app

scaled model builder on

App works like S*it and is a complete waste of money remove this from the App Store please

Sweet application

Igorrious on

This by far went beyond expectations. Amazing app Marek, this is exactly what I was looking for 3D printing. The reviews here didn’t make the purchase easy. The preview mode doesn’t give the final model detail, which is the main selling point. The final model details are dependent on how careful user captures the model vs environment. Definitely delivers on iPhone X. :D

Waste

PrivateParts on

Can’t even try it before buying. No thanks

Works well, great customer support, local data

Lintonn on

Great app! You are able to scan and directly export from your phone. No need to upload to a cloud service like most other apps I found. Scans stay local and are easy to export. I use mesh mixer to clean up the scans, and I’m happy with the workflow. The customer support is also great. Had some questions about the app before getting started. FAQ page was very helpful, and my email to the creator was quickly responded to. The in-app purchase makes sense if you read the FAQ and description. No complaints!

Free to Download but not to use?

travissachs on

Looks like a good app and can’t wait to try. Marek will give you a code to try before you buy and seems very passionate and proud of his work. I will update once I try this app.

Simple straight to the point and well made

A.N.Singh on

I tried pretty much all the other apps out there and even when I could not scan and save without purchase at first, the preview was far better than any of the other apps I used . Bought it and worth it. Spend hours and hours with apps that don’t do the job or spend just 12 bucks and get to having great scans that don’t glitch out or kick you out . Thanks!
