Could you add an option to 'scan using ceiling corners' instead of floor corners because in my rooms I can see all the ceiling corners no problem, but on the floor 80% are hidden behind something or i have to climb over something. I think ceiling scanning would be a lot more accurate and a lot easier. I've only just started using this app so it might already be an option.
It's not still accurate enough to replace surveying instruments even combining with laser measurement devices. Because of inability to measuring angles. But it's efficient for application of interrior design.
Hi Charlotte, sure, you can change the thickness of the walls, you can see all the details here >> help.magicplan.app/change-exterior-and-interior-wall-thickness Moreover, you can only change the length of the partial wall but can change width/ depth/ height of a PARTITION WALL > check this video from our Community, which shows the difference between a partial wall and a partition wall community.magicplan.app/c/quick-edits-097b7a/sections/90541/lessons/300561 🙂 Silvia from magicplan
Hey 🙂 Now you can do that! If you use the LiDAR Auto-Scan feature you can scan walls and openings, but also the furniture. Check it out here >> help.magicplan.app/auto-scan-your-floor-plan
That's amazing. Only a few years ago I took a weekend to learn sketch up and do a floor plan. Gave up. Now I could do it in half an hour. Just hope Apple adds LIDAR to future Mini. I got it and the Max to try and just can't handle the size of the Max.
Most likely they will remove it sooner or later if they don’t find a use for the masses, just like 3D Touch and the Touchbar on Macbooks. I got a 13 mini, wish I had Lidar now
Hi there! The difference is that LiDAR uses pulsed lasers to build a point cloud, which is then used to construct a 3D map (or image). ToF applications create "depth maps" based on light detection, usually through a standard RGB camera. Basically, as soon as you have a supported Android device the scanning function will work too - you can check the supported devices here: developers.google.com/ar/devices
Great video and like Martin below said: it would be awesome to have a ceiling corner function as well! I’m still having trouble sometimes finding corners behind furniture etc. Great app btw!!
The name of the app is magicplan, and it works on Android. Here's the link to download it: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sensopia.magicplan&hl=en_US
My home has anything but straight angles.. Connecting rooms in the Magicplan was literal hell because every time it tried to straighten the walls for me or make other changes just because
Indeed a valuable too, paired with IP 12 Pro Max - pure genius - this is def going to be in my kit. Shame it’s a subscription plan with the APP. But the project should more than cover the cost. Time & hassle from the old school method - removed & gone. A few years ago this meant having a draftsman, Autocad, Maya & other expensive time consuming software & operator to build into the budget. Now it’s a 7 min go to , one stop, one man, great results - platform. IMPRESSIVE. Thank you.
How is it on curved walls or old stone walls (not straight or vertical)? Does it rely on modern concepts of construction - like everything should be square and vertical?
I'm wondering if the % of error you get compared to the laser meter, has something to do with the fact that you're pointing your phone to the baseboard and probably the laser meter to the walls? Or does it matter?
I used to use this app on android circa samsung galaxy s6. It worked fairly well but was not any competition with a real point scanner. I will have to test it on the 12 pro max and see
Magic plan has an unreal customer support team and when I approached them about the topic they told me that while current androids have lidar they don't have the multi-plane detection (hardware) that Apple does. Therefore until androids overcome that hardware limitation the wall detection won't transfer. That being said newer androids have very good software that makes mapping through placing corner markers very effective.
hi I've been using MagicPlan for a couple of years . . . and still/always have a couple of issues with corners - especially in kitchen with cabinets and with deep closets. I generally just add those by hand, grrr. Looks like Lidar will solve those? It was NOT clear from this video how you shift from corner to wall detection. Could you address that? Also what happens in a small room when you can't get back far enough to capture windows or doors? Is there a workaround to doing it by hand after the fact? thanks. great product.
With my measuring tape, pencil, and notebook its much satisfying and feels professional, but this is a very promising and futuristic😀.... this will take time to grow on me...
Hey, sure. In that video, we showcased the old LiDAR, but if you have an iPad Pro or iPhone 12 Pro/Pro Max or newer Pro devices, you can try our new LiDAR Auto-Scan as seen in this video: ruclips.net/video/X-ve8VZqyGg/видео.html

Hello, this looks like a very potent solution for modern interiors. How does magicplan fare with non rectangular rooms ? Round walls, non rectangular rooms, high ceiling, rafters, moulding/coving on the ceiling of older houses, all these are pretty common on our projects. Can magicplan handle that ?
great question :) no answer from magicplan until now :(( How does Magicplan link the different rooms of an apartment together? In the video they are surveyed one at a time and then placed next to each other: but this assumes that I know exactly how the house is made, which generally DOESN'T happen in professional reality ... When I survey an apartment, I have to find out if the rooms have orthogonal sides to each other or not: does the program find out? And then: it should be the software that gives me the concatenation of the rooms, the geometry, the inclined sides, the rotations ... otherwise it's only good for small orthogonal apartments ...
Hi James. What you're seeing is referred to as drift. Drift has been a known issue in ARKit for a while. During the "Tracking and Mapping" process in ARKit, the detected floor plane is shifted up and down a bit, and sometimes it makes this kind of error. Unfortunately, we can't do much about it. Without LIDAR, this makes our measurement inaccurate, but with LiDAR, since we are using sensor data, it doesn't make much difference. We understand it seems discouraging from a user perspective. Our advice would be to just go with it unless it looks completely off. We do quite a bit of normalization after the AR scan was completed. In most cases, the error will be minimal. And in general, try to have the best light conditions possible for initialization and move slower during capture.
magicplan hi. That’s a fair reply I guess. Thank you. So with lidar, are you saying even though visually you can see apparent drift the measured walls are still correct results?
Hey Sebastien, I'd recommend you give our app a try! Since this video was released, we've made major improvements to our AR capture. There'll be an updated video coming out soon.
That is a different function. You have to first create your room (how you prefer, you can use the "scan with camera", the "add a square room" or the "define corner" feature). Then you can connect your laser to the app and go ahead and measure your walls so that you get 100% accuracy. Take a look at this link >> help.magicplan.app/laser-distance-meters
I'm just buying my first house and need this tool for assisting in furnishing measurements along with future construction projects. I have an iPhone 7. Will this tool work with my phone?
enjoyed it a lot! Fantastic us of new tech on iPhone! Can think of a million ways people in contraction could theoretically use this. ...although most of them do not really care about such detailed figures as they are pretty good at estimating the amount of materials they need on a job anyway. ;-). Does it allow for showing accurate thickness of walls etc.? I can think of ways the outcome of this tool might be useful for Unify floorplans.

Hi Jim! magicplan is an app to create floorplans so, unfortunately, no, you cannot use it as a security system itself. However, in our object library you will find 2 main categories called "Alarm & Security" and "Fire & Safety" that will help you create your perfect project, try them out!🙂 Silvia from magicplan
im curious if the cosine error of the laser measuring tape is the root of the error. i have a bosch as well and its exceptionally accurate but unless you can eliminate cosine error from the user, i think i'd trust the volumetric number from the lidar more than multiple measurements from the bosch. fwiw im an industrial tooling builder and am often working to less than a 5mm on projects over 200m. for individual cells i try to stay under 1mm, using the bosch i can keep 1mm reasonably easily, validated by real industrial laser metrology equipment, ie faro vantage and similar. to be able to achieve these results required reducing cosine error to a minimum. i've built a couple tripods that i level with a machine spirit level and match their heights when near the specified distance with a rotary laser, one is rolling, the other if fixed. i then use the bosch on a rolling tripod with a plumb bob to shoot a fixed tripod that also has a plumb bob on as well.
Hi, what would be best practice getting high accuracy models - first building the model with LiDAR and then adjust the model with laser connected to magicplan which adjust measurements in the model. Would that be a possible and good workflow ?
magicplan can be used on every phone or tablet, there is a free version or 3 different types of subscriptions. You can see the compatible devices here >> help.magicplan.app/supported-devices
This is just the video I have waited for and it's enough for me to give the app a try. A few additional thoughts..... how does it determine the wall thickness? How are multiple stories handled? The next video perhaps :) Thank You
I will give magicplan another try. Been pushing for this for so many years now. Anything to get away from drawing it out by hand then going back to the office to draw it up. It took so long to get autocad to allow Bluetooth to talk to their app. I’m not testing and waiting for them to catch up again.
I need to scan an office in an all-curtained walled office building, will the glass/window detector detect the walls as "Curtain Wall" instead of solid walls?
Hi George. No, magicplan will work fine on a phone without LiDAR. The only difference will be that you won’t have access to the “wall detection” feature. You’ll still be able to scan rooms. Go and download magicplan and give it a try. All feature are free to use on two projects.
Hi Billie! It depends if you are using a Lidar-supported device or not. You always have the option to complete the scanning process manually, just in case. Can you please send us an email at support@magicplan.app in order for us to check? Thank you in advance, Silvia from magicplan 🙂
Hi Phillip! Remeasuring with the laser tool tool around 5 minutes. The process is pretty quick and easy if you have an AR scan to start out with. If you were to start from scratch, manually drawing the rooms and then measuring, it will take you around three times as long.
Yes sure, you can export your project in DXF. Check all the export formats that we offer here: help.magicplan.app/export-formats 🙂 For any questions, feel free to contact us at support@magicplan.app - Silvia from magicplan
Lidar measurements can't achieve precise angle measurements. Furthermore, rooms are surveyed independently that is not enough for high level applications.
Hi, I am using Huawei P40 PRO that has inbuild a very accurate distance sensor and cameras but I cannot use the camera future in the app. Could you please share the technology on Huawei user to?
What do you think about the accuracy you can achieve with the new LiDAR sensor? Try it free here bit.ly/3nPvZCo
3% это очень неточно. Обычная рулетка дает 1мм на метр, что в 30 раз точнее
Looks pretty good. I guess it will depend on many factors, but in this care is was pretty good.
