Description
Build a home, renovate an apartment or plan your garden with Live Home 3D—an intuitive home, interior and landscape design app that turns all design tasks into an exciting process, while giving you the powerful tools that no other app in the store can deliver.
With Live Home 3D, you will be able to:
• Create detailed 2D floor plan layouts.
• Walk through your 3D interior designs.
• Hone your design skills with the ready-made house and interior design samples (e.g., kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, etc).
• Add and move furniture and other objects (2,400+ items), and apply physically based materials (2,100+ supplied materials). Thousands of free models can be imported from the Trimble 3D Warehouse.
• Import 3D models from other applications in all of the most popular formats.
• Project your 3D home into real-world surroundings, and even walk around or inside the house using View in the AR option.
• Scan your room or house using the Room Scanner feature based on LiDAR technology to recreate its digital copy in the app (only for devices with LiDAR sensors built-in).
• Achieve natural lighting by setting up true geolocation, time of day and cloudiness.
• Adjust light fixtures throughout the house to achieve a realistic lighting scene.
• Set multiple cameras to create flyover videos and 3D renderings of your projects from different angles.
• Work with the fully customizable roof; create corner windows and complex openings.
• Easily share your projects among iOS, iPadOS, visionOS, macOS or Windows devices.
Share your projects with friends, contractors or on social media.
• Export 2D floor plans as PDF and 3D views of your projects as high-resolution images.
• Render realistic home interior and outdoor walkthrough videos.
• Create Stereo 3D Video, 360° Video, Stereo 3D 360° Video and 360° Panorama JPEG images.
Note: All exports have watermarks in the Free version of the app. Only one project at a time can be used in the Free version.
The Standard Features In-App purchase removes the watermarks, save limitations and the 2-floor limit of the Free version.

• Material Editor that allows you to create sophisticated custom materials, controlling their texture and light emissive properties.
• 2D Elevation view that displays the side view on walls and roof; a perfect tool for working with openings, niches and wall panels.
• Custom-shaped roofs: freely edit roof segments to roofs of any form and complexity.
• Multi-purpose Building Block tool for creating columns, beams or even furniture.
• A wider range of camera settings.
• Export the entire house design or several objects to USDZ, glTF, SCN, SCNZ, FBX or OBJ formats.
• Light Source Editor with a wide range of settings that helps you create custom lamps or achieve the best lighting for your projects.

Ratings and Reviews
Seems pretty good
After playing around with Live Home 3D for a couple of hours, I started to get the hang of the phone interface. The AR feature is pretty good.
You do feel like you’re doing a lot to get basic features to function sometimes, but I guess that’s the limitation of using a phone screen. Not sure how to select a wall instead of the whole room for example, just persistently random single tap, double tap, eventually does the job.
The ability to precisely adjust wall lengths, by entering values makes things easier, thanks to the developer for pointing out how that is done, and the way it brings joined wall lengths along with it is pretty good. There are a few glitches here and there. When searching furniture, the keyboard pretty much obscured the models. You need to select what you can see of one of the items, move it a bit and the keyboard retracts, allowing you to scroll through the models.
It would be good if it indicated which side the wall thickness will be adjusted, on the actual plans. It depends on which way up the line is.
Importing lhzd models, I’ve not quite mastered yet and It would be good if it was possible to open doors in AR mode, not sure if that’s possible, but overall a pretty good app.
Developer Response ,
Hello! Thank you for the feedback! We will check the flaws you've mentioned and do our best to improve the app behavior with future updates. It's not an easy task to add full functionality to the phone, given its small screen size, but there is nothing impossible in this world!
Kind Regards,

Takes me out annoying
The game is good and in my case I love to decorate houses which is why I downloaded the app but this is a big big but the game while playing takes you out you may be wondering what am I on about well let me tell you so when you are playing you cannot look at the blueprints then switch to walking around the house because it takes you out of the game I found this very very annoying and also you cannot look at the blueprints for the second floor or the third which then again it’s annoying and another thing that is annoying is that when you are walking around the house and you select an item you cannot turn it round without going on the blueprints so therefore it is hard to decorate the house because you have to keep switching from something to the other and when you do that it takes you out of the game and I think this is because you need a lot a lot of storage space and in my case it is limited so not very recommended
Developer Response ,
Hello! Actually, most of the flaws you mentioned do not exist. There are three ways to rotate any object: using the handles in 2D, using the Object Properties tab of the Inspector (works in any mode), and using the special gestures (works in 2D and 3D). You may refer to the Quick Start Guide and app video tutorials to get more info. To switch between the stories, you need to open the Inspector / Building Properties tab and operate with the special buttons; this dialog also allows you to add a roof.
Lack of space on the device is not the only reason why the app may crash. Some third-party objects (such as the ones downloaded from the Trimble 3D Warehouse), may contain a big amount of triangles or have issues with the texture which leads to excessive consumption of RAM during the download, which, in its turn, crashes the app; the solution - turn off your internet connection, open the project and find the object which was downloading (it has a clock sign or “X” on the 2D plan and has a white box shape with clock or warning message in 3D), delete it; the app should stop crashing after that.
Best Regards,

Too many in app purchases
I really like this app and the things you can use it for are very broad it’s surprisingly easy to use and simple the only thing is without paying money you can only make one house I would really like it if it would be a bit clearer more obvious if you’re about to delete something after I accidentally tried to save something and then deleted it was very annoying also they push you to pay especially if you need to do more advanced houses with 3 or more floors. As said the app is easy and simple but if you want you make more advanced you have to pay. I recommend it especially to interior designers and architects who are willing to pay the 10- 20 pounds
