Metascan - 3D Scanner Hack 2.9.3 + Redeem Codes

I use this app multiple times every week, and after several months, I’m very happy with it. It is fairly simple to use, and what it can do is amazing. The company responds quickly to queries, and it makes regular software updates that improves the features significantly. It is probably among the best in its price range and features…. That said, be aware that there are practical limits to what this virtual reality software can do. This software is a cheap way to initially try VR, but to make quality videos, you have to learn its strengths and limitations. You have to probably buy the proper lighting/studio equipment too. Higher quality videos require the latest/best iPhone too. It requires a fast processor and memory to handle files for the best videos—meshing the max of 300 pictures per scan. But that is true for any software like this. Although you can still do a lot without much additional equipment (and with relatively new cell phones). I am constantly amazed with what I can do with it. But there are things it cannot do—especially if you try to push it beyond its design limits.

This app produces the best scans I’ve seen on iOS. It allows free roaming scanning and is capable of capturing very large spaces (had no trouble with a ~1200 square foot space I tried). Now that the app uses Lidar, the accuracy of the meshes is vastly improved, without the warping that would sometimes occur in the earlier RGB-only versions. Interior walls are perfectly straight and meet at the correct angles (e.g., 90 degrees). Texture quality is great and the USDZs look really great when viewed on a desktop computer. Definitely give this a try especially if you need something that “just works” for serious purposes.

I have an iPhone11 Pro (so no Lidar) and have tried pretty much every scanning app- Metascan is the only one that has consistently produced high quality results. The interface is simple and it has the features I want (double sided scanning/object masking, scan quality settings, etc). Also, support on the developer’s Discord channel is top notch!

Having tried almost all of the LiDAR scanning apps, this one is the best so far. The price is reasonable for hobbyist use, it exports models directly, and is very user friendly. Additionally, the free trial is useful as it allows you to try all of the features before you drop the cash on it.
Huge fan of this app!!

Incredibly, this app only functions in portrait, making it infuriating to use with an iPad that has been attached to a keyboard.

I've got the 8GB of RAM M1 iPad and it couldn't handle scanning an entire house without crashing and losing the entire scan. Also produced a bunch of floating glitches from one part of the house to another. Doesn't seem to be able to capture fine enough resolution to not put holes in a 2x4 wall with drywall because it thinks it's too thin.

I really like this app but I have a few issues.
For example, many times captures turn out glitchy and full of non-exsistent triangles. Also, I want to see the price of the full version but i don't know how. I might by the pro version soon!

An absolute joy to use compared to the other apps. I have no problem giving them my money.

Would love to see an implementation of loop closure to eliminate drift, but I’m also supposing Apple might introduce that and all downstream apps like Forge may get it as a part of ARKit. Here’s hoping, anyway.

LiDAR is very fascinating if it would not suffer from drift.

Sofar I have not found any application that can produce accurate models without drift and deformation.

It is great to digitize a space so you have a reference but it is not usable for an as is model to take measurements from.

I needed something fast and easy to use and this performed better than my test of matterport’s scanning app. Other apps just haven’t seemed to figure out the speed like Forge has.

Can’t wait to see where this goes!

Tried 10 scanner apps for iOS and this one was easy, intuitive, and produced the best scans! I used iPhone SE with 12 Mp camera. Will upgrade to be able to export .stl files.
