Description
'CHARNWOOD LIVE FIRE’ is a new augmented reality platform that allows you place a Charnwood stove in your living room.
Place the tag in the space where you would like to install the stove, frame it with your smartphone or tablet and then select your stove of choice.
Your chosen stove will appear before you on the screen – fired up and to scale.
The ‘CHARNWOOD LIVE FIRE’ platform allows you to:
- Experiment with different colour and stand options
- Walk around your chosen stove
- Take screen shots of the stove from different angles
- Share your installation pictures on different social networking sites
- Link through to the Charnwood website for further detailed specifications
Never before has it been easier to visualise a Charnwood stove in your own home and to see how it fits into the style of your interior.

Ratings and Reviews
Hopeless
Similar to others, tag link fails (but it is available if you search). I printed it landscape A4, no idea if that’s correct as it’s not specified anywhere. However, even with this the stove I wanted to show wasn’t listed so I picked another just to get a gauge of something similar in my fireplace. It’s still useless, seemingly at random the stove flips to be face down and when it’s correctly orientated it levitates in mid air and offset to the left of the tag. If you try and step back to get a wider angle view (so your screen isn’t fully filled with the stove) then it loses the tag reference and the stove vanishes. Utterly hopeless.
Useless, out of date, seemingly unsupported
TL;DR - don’t bother; the poor result isn’t worth the hassle of trying to make it work
I downloaded the app and the first thing it asked for was the ‘tag’. It gave a link on the website which is now 404. Searching the website was fruitless. After googling for it, I realised it’s in the brochure. D’oh!
So I put the tag in the fireplace where we wanted the stove and tried to choose our desired stove; but it’s not in the app as it doesn’t seem to have been updated for several years. So we chose an older option and it displayed it in nice 3D, but in mid-air a couple of feet to the left of where we wanted. So I had to guess where to place the tag to make it appear in the right place. But it didn’t like that and decided to display the stove face down on the floor.
To add insult to injury, half the menus display incorrectly (‘Cancel’ is just ‘Ca’) or aren’t accessible on an iPhone X.
I just gave up and uninstalled it. I would give it zero stars if possible.
Hopeless
As others have said doesn’t work properly. After scanning tag places fire image in a different position. Trying to move around to place it properly flips it on its front or back or it ends up floating in the air like the Tardis. Can’t see mantlepiece with fire in it as too close backing away makes fire a lot smaller in relation to mantlepiece and disappears altogether.
