Export scans into STL, PLY, OBJ, USDZ, 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? To protect people with unsupported devices from buying it (more details at the end). Heges is divided into two modes: = 3D Scanner (**PAID**, requires one-time In-App Purchase) ============================ - Available only for iPhones and iPad Pros with the selfie FaceID (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, USDZ (all 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 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 newer) users: Beginning with the iPhone 13 lineup, Apple introduced a new TrueDepth (FaceID) camera design, which produces (slightly) 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 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 support@hege.sh and I'll be happy to help you :)! ## Heges 3D Scanner Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple211/v4/6b/8a/67/6b8a67be-b127-aabf-0f1a-b2e6a08f2552/mzl.qpsgktgn.png/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple211/v4/6f/9c/c9/6f9cc9f7-6c29-86bb-e012-b89011c7870b/mzl.scwvimnz.png/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple211/v4/05/5d/8f/055d8f0e-58ab-95ca-7b9f-7ffabc9094ee/mzl.omwfzryy.png/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple221/v4/86/43/1f/86431f1d-a795-1189-9a21-07d7cde7c6ec/mzl.xvzcwmnp.png/1242x2688.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple211/v4/0a/41/b5/0a41b508-49ba-193a-db52-a360b864c556/mzl.umuysgeq.png/1242x2688.png) ## Heges 3D Scanner Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 104 (35%) - 4 stars: 25 (8%) - 3 stars: 16 (5%) - 2 stars: 18 (6%) - 1 stars: 135 (45%) ## Heges 3D Scanner Reviews in United States ### **--- "Quits scanning" I've given this app multiple shots, but almost every single time it either loses tracking halfway through or gives up right when I start the scan. I've tried moving incredibly slowly and yet it still loses tracking. My most common problem is as soon as I start a scan it says "recovering from tracking error," even though the scan literally just started. I tried messing with the settings too, and nothing seems to fix this. It just doesn't consistently work for me and has only worked like twice. -- Supelex, 2024-12-17 ### ***** "5 stars but please" Great application. does exactly what it says and very well! very well made application perfect for 3d scans also artwork! -- SyrupSlut, 2024-12-15 ### **--- "Won’t let you test a capture without purchase" Won’t let you test a capture without purchase -- DanAug1984z, 2024-10-13 ### ***** "Awesome developer!" I installed the app and unfortunately my phone isn’t cooperating. What made me go out of the way to rate the app is that, when I reached out to the developer with my issue, he responded so quickly to help me troubleshoot. I’m still not sure what exactly my phone’s issue is, so I haven’t been able to use the app as intended, but I think the responsiveness and kindness from the developer alone is worth celebrating. -- felixreview, 2024-09-04 ### ***** "Excellent value" Great little app for older non-LiDAR phones. Usability issues such as the screen being the wrong way can easily be overcome with a mirror. This is by far the lowest threshold of entry into 3D scanning for iPhone X users. -- army_of_52, 2024-07-13 ### ***** "Very easy to use" I watched a video on YT and skimmed the faq on the dev’s site and had a quick scan of my own head done in under 5 minutes, exported and editable in Blender with impressive detail. The mirroring function that lets you watch the scan in realtime in a different iDevice is really a defining feature of this app’s workflow. -- thisguyonyourradio, 2023-10-24 ### **--- "Not as good as it used to be" Was the best detailed scanner on the App Store. Just checked it again today after a few months and it looks awful. Front Face ID looks bad as well. Haven’t changed phones. Quality just went down hill for some reason. LiDAR camera looks pixilated bad, same with the faceID scanner. Like really really bad. Used to be crazy detailed. Even purchased this app cause of the level of detail was spot on. (Make assets for Blender) oddly enough, Polycam got order of magnitudes better. Maybe apple is dialing back the ability of this app to push Polycam? Idk but this app isn’t the same as it once was. -- Reluctant from day 1, 2023-09-21 ### **--- "I have not been able to get front LiDAR to work" Attempting to scan a small (4” high 2” square base) salt shaker sitting on a wooden table using the faceID scanner at 1mm: * usually it starts by telling me to “slow down” even though I am holding the phone as still as I can, propped on the table, about 12” from the object. * if I move slowly to scan anyway, it frequently loses acquisition, needs to recover from tracking errors. * if I persist and patiently let it reacquire, the scans always end (on their own) before I can get all 4 sides of the object. * sometimes the produced scans have a chimeric quality, two copies of it overlaid. * the whole time it’s scanning, the errors are clicking the phone’s haptics constantly like a geiger counter, as it loses and regains tracking rapidly, multiple times a second. I want to like this app and use it to model small-medium objects but I just haven’t succeeded with it. iPhone 12 pro, FaceID working fine on this unit. Rear LiDAR is working fine for me in this app, but I bought it in to try out the front, high detail, lidar. -- b9218345-b636-49f7-8398-ed4840, 2023-09-18 ### *---- "waste of my time" this scanner is a waster does a poor job and a waste of time -- Hustonrad, 2023-08-14 ### *---- "Not sure what happened!?!" This app used to be one of the best LiDAR scanning apps on the Apple App Store. It was super fast and detailed. The app would capture incredible detail. The models would come out smooth and complete. Now it barely does a decent scan. I don’t know what happened. How did it go from amazing to bleh? I have scans to prove it. You can literally see them progressively get slightly better… then they just fall off a cliff. I think you tried adding to many different features, or maybe Apple limited your ability to communicate with the LiDAR sensor itself? I’m not sure but can you fix it? I want my app back. I used to tell everyone about this app. My uncle upgraded to an iPhone 12 PM just for the LiDAR. I really hope you read this, and please do not get mad. I’m not trying to get you all riled up. I just want you to know what I’m seeing, from the customers perspective. I’d gladly pay for this app if it worked like it used to. Please fix it. -- MightyBohab, 2023-03-24 [View all Heges 3D Scanner reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Heges 3D Scanner In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | 3D Scanner | $7.99 | ## Heges 3D Scanner Discovered Keywords -
