PhotoCatch

Much better than the default apple square castle object capture standard... I just wish there were a permanent purchase option which is a huge disappointment for me as I need an offline, hassle-free, no strings attached solution. :(

Mac book user here, this app also has a desktop version for Mac, however, only compatible with certain models so that is disappointing. After a lot of trial and failed attempts with other softwares, this was the only app I could get an actual successful 3d model from! For that it deserves 5 stars. Can’t wait for advancements and more Mac capabilities.

You need to give an email address to use it. First you upload your pics or video of an object, then you get a price to download the 3D model of it. Considering Apple Object Capture api is free and runs in a couple of minutes on a laptop, this seems unreasonable. If I could buy the app I would, but I won’t pay each time I want to use it. The preview you get doesn’t show the quality of the mesh without the skin, so it’s hard to judge the quality of the model.

As of March 3rd 2024, the new update is basically useless even with subscription. We can’t choose the quality of models and we lost the option of using cloud service. Totally waste of subscription fee. Look for alternatives.

I wanted this app to succeed but it keeps freezing up. Unfortunate because I love that you can start with a video or individual pictures. When it worked (twice) the results was great. When it failed there was no feedback and I would have to power down my phone to get out of the app. I reluctantly canceled my “Pro” subscription after trying to work with “support” several times.😞

Every time during the extract media process it crashes. So it’s useless.

Models are still downloading and it’s been 2 weeks. I imported photos I already had taken in advance knowing I was going to make a 3d model. I also took a video. Neither one will get to the point I can actually see the models. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, or if the app is malfunctioned.

App keeps crashing.

According to the developer, they collect “user Photos and videos” among other things, and these data are linked to you. I’m not sure how anyone can use this app knowing that whatever media are being used to create photogrammetry models are available to the developer. It’s just plain disgusting.

There is an issue with the RoomPlan API. When you click OBJ as the export option. It still produces a USDZ file instead. The USDZ option also produces usdz
