Planner 5D: AI Home Design 4+

I love this app, but recently crashes

I have been using Planner 5D for years and have absolutely loved it. There are a few things that are janky, room lengths not lining up to one another quite right, doors auto locking on a wall that makes them impossible to stick to short walls, the inability to customize the height of different rooms in the multi level views without the whole level above being elevated creating a gap in the floors, but it still worked well for me. I got the upgrade long ago for the catalog and it greatly expanded my options in app. However as of yesterday I am unable to open the app and it keeps crashing on me. I’ve updated to the newest IOS option and no luck. I’m not sure if the app is getting too complicated where it just can’t function correctly anymore or what, as I have had problems with it lagging badly more recently. Please don’t try to fix something that isn’t broken. Maybe work on improving pre existing features in the app instead of trying to change the fundamentals of its functionality? Otherwise longtime fan, I just want to be able to make my ideas. I hope the crashing is remedied soon, thanks.

Don't expect too much.

I have a premium subscription and try to use it interchangeably on iPad, website, and Windows 10 app. It has lots of problems and shortcomings. Here are a few of them. * A door's representation in 2D and 3D often do not match. And they may be different on iPad than website than Windows 10. * Inadequate basic construction objects like * No sliding glass patio doors * No bypass closet doors * No concept of layering or stacking of objects. The ability to control the order of stacking is essential but does not exist. You have to drag the objects apart to work on them and then re-assemble them. * When you abut 2 rooms to have a common wall, you cannot work with the common wall segment as a single wall. * An open area in a ceiling or floor may or may not render as an open space in 3D. * An object like stairs that ascends through a ceiling space or descends through a floor space may appear in 3D as though the ceiling or floor is transparent. In other words, the floor or ceiling does not block the the portion of the object that should not be visible for the current viewing angle. * There is a fairly limited fixed list of room names with no way to add a custom name. * It is very difficult to work with short wall lengths because the wall length is too short to show its length. * Room labels do not adapt to room size and, for small areas, may make it impossible to select the room. * Many more...

My go to app for story building

I’ve been using Planner 5D for at least 5 years and it’s aged like a fine wine, only ever adding more and never taking away. There are a few bugs such as; Duplicated items sometimes “disappearing” in 2D view. But they’re a very minor inconvenience in the big scheme of things. And I mean BIG, graph sizes that allow you to make giant buildings (Castle, mall, school) width and length wise for now. It’s currently limited to how high you can go and there are no sub floors. I have more than 20 saved blueprints and as far as I know there’s no cap. Every time I come up with a new story idea that I’m kean on I whip up a quick floor plan for the main characters apartments/ houses for locational reasons so I can give a clear 360 viewpoint in my writing. You can change the color/texture of practically anything placeable to give it unique characteristics. I love being able to make where my fictional characters live and their settings. The catalog of placable items grows every year. I’m personally hoping for an animal update that includes new animals and some enclosures.
Five stars for the most affordable world builder I could find that works on iPhone.
