3D Viewer by Chief Architect

When we approached our architect one of their selling points was an interactive 3d model of our home we could reference at any time during the building process. The first couple of times it worked great but then I had memory issues. I can no longer open it on a computer and it only loads half the time on my phone. I have cleared any unnecessary space from my devices and still get the memory error. It’s extremely frustrating now that we are in the building process and can’t reference what we paid for.

Augmented reality where the model would open up in full scale would be great. Then ability to move to and fix position; then walk around would be perfect.

I’m genuinely surprised by how poor the user interface is on this app. It is not up to the standards of Chief Architect products. I suppose with enough practice a person could manage to get some idea of what the design looks like. I found it to be intolerable and not worth investing time in.

Worst app I have ever used.

I was hoping to use this to see in real life how it would look in the location. It only finds one spot to begin the simulation. It is small and does not have north and south markers so you have to play with it a lot to get it even close to the correct aspect ratio or location.

This has really great potential, but the walking mode does not make effective use of gyroscope and movement simulation and feels very limited compare to other AR apps. I wish app could detect and remove high memory consumption objects.

For the price we pay for this software this feature needs a really big HD update so it doesn’t look like a cartoon and runs smoother for our clients.

My iMac is old (2013) and doesn’t have a good enough graphics card to support HDP23. This app has been crucial for me to be able to find tune my models.

It could have been better, that’s all I have to say.
