Artivive

Very interesting and complete online platform for AR art projects. It is really intuitive for simple projects and does look really outside de screen giving the “alive” sensation to the art. For using layers it is a bit complicated if you don’t have previous experience with 3D and layers, but the tutorial is clear enough to keep you going to the final result.

Awesome app! 😍

Doesn’t recognize anything I point it at, just stays on the make sure the whole artwork is in view 🙄

My school is doing this game and I know we’re gonna lose I hate this app, and I hate this school, I’m suing.

I have been using Artivive for several years now to create AR artworks. My first experiment with AR was a fun project with my daughter, who was 6 at the time. Since then, I have created AR posters, postcards, and T-shirts that are Artivive-enabled. This past year, the Hearst Corporation purchased a large-scale (6x8 foot) AR-enabled artwork that transforms on the wall with Artivive. In November of 2023, I published an AR book on Amazon, which is the first of its kind. It is called ”Metagraphs: Augmented Reality Art”. You can find it by searching my name on Amazon. Artivive is easy to use, both for the artist and viewer. I suggest you give it a try.

This is an amazing app that is so far ahead of the curve when it come to AR viewing and creation for artists. The app work very well, but best with a WiFi connection, decent lighting and at least 10% charge on your phone. Even in the worst of conditions, the app work flawlessly over 98% of the time. When conditions are optimize it’s beyond perfection.

They have this horrible business structure where their monthly plan is based on the views of the artwork… the problem is that there was 4 of us in my team testing this out. For $10 a month you can get 1,000 views. The app kept glitching so it would go in and out from being an image to being a video. Within 15 minutes of us just seeing if this works or not (more like 5 minutes of actual testing) the FOUR of us accrued 106 views. Excuse me?? The video going in and out because it was glitching or wasn’t detecting the images well accrued hundred more views. It just seems so unfair and unaffordable to justify the cost in this business model :/ I was a big fan of artivive and we were pitching bigger projects but we might have to start looking elsewhere… we thought 1,000 views would be like 1,000 unique viewers of the piece.

The app sounds fun and great. But the uploading on website is full of error especially for the 3d/pro mode. The screen is simply black and cannot do anything. Well, if the cellphone app is actually functioning I would not say a word against it! The fact is many a time the app cannot scan out anything but it shows the artwork is uploaded/published and even viewed on the web portal. 简单来说这个应用它概念做到有AR的噱头，但实际非常不好用，根本扫不出来也传不上去，以为是个创意产品实际使用起来非常糟糕。

We use Artivive to attach animated illustrations to books and paintings for our events. It’s the easiest app to work with as a graphic designer. No coding skills are necessary. Their app is straightforward for our event guests to download and use. Adobe and Apple may have their AR projects but they are simply too difficult right now for our guests to play with in their apps.

Developing an art project that will likely be putting a lot of use app. It is insanely easy to learn and incredibly fast. It is awesome that it opens directly on the camera screen, not forcing users to waste time navigating a menu so they can watch art come to life as soon as the app opens.
