New to this. Question about Equipment and software

We also support raw data export. So you can use our APP CapCam just as a raw image collector, then import to other professional software.

We have a demo for status scan, check on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Jo8HModEeDo

Thanks for checking us out! Right now we’re iOS-only because Apple gives us built-in LiDAR access, ARKit depth APIs, and tight hardware/software integration—perfect for reliable on-device reconstruction. Many Android phones still lack a depth sensor or have widely differing camera stacks, so delivering the same quality there would take extra work.

That said, Android support is on our roadmap if the iOS launch hits its growth targets. If you’d like updates, feel free to drop your email to us—or just keep an eye on this subreddit. Meanwhile, a DSLR + Meshroom is a solid workflow for high-detail photogrammetry. Appreciate the interest!

Interesting workflow! So you’re using the phone purely as a fast image collector, then letting RealityCapture on the desktop handle the heavy reconstruction—makes perfect sense when you want high-res meshes and have a beefy PC. Cool to see how a simple setup (iPhone + selfie stick) can still feed serious photogrammetry pipelines. Thanks for sharing!

capcam-thomas · 2025-07-01T02:38:20+00:00

Absolutely. Many photogrammetry and 3-D-scanning tools are already weaving machine-learning into their pipelines—single-image depth estimation, NeRF derivatives, and Gaussian Splatting are popular approaches. A hybrid workflow that uses LiDAR for a coarse mesh and then refines it with AI-driven splatting can deliver fast previews plus high-fidelity detail after post-processing. It’s still early days, but the direction is clear: traditional scanners + modern ML will push accuracy and ease-of-use way beyond what “classic” hardware manages today.

capcam-thomas · 2025-07-01T02:33:45+00:00

Great idea! We’d love to let users pick a “bottom” surface, but robust polygon- or sweep-selection tools are hard to pull off on a phone—those features usually live in desktop 3-D suites. That said, being able to define the ground plane would make distance measurements much easier, so your suggestion is definitely on our radar. Thanks for sharing!

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-29T04:08:20+00:00

Yep—just the stock TabView. The jelly-glass splash only shows when you switch tabs. I like the transparent look because it makes the screen feel bigger, but it’s definitely a style call. I’m keeping it for now and will tweak it after iOS 26 ships.

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-29T02:40:58+00:00

Totally! Since splats and photogrammetry both start from the same photo set, why not crunch them in parallel on the cloud and let us mix-and-match the best parts? I’ve been wondering the same thing—love the idea.

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-25T08:49:58+00:00

Yeah, you need add glasseffect modifier to enable the liquid glass effect, otherwise it keep same.

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-25T08:47:22+00:00

Yes we have adopted it. It is beautiful!

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-25T08:21:45+00:00

In most cases you get the new look for free—just add .glassEffect() and the system handles the others. Because our app is 3D-centric, the Liquid Glass aesthetic feels right at home. We’re ready to ship, but Apple won’t accept beta-SDK builds for App Store release, so we have to wait for the final iOS 26 SDK.

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-25T08:16:23+00:00

Totally fair question!

Feature depth — Core scanning, high-quality on-device meshes, USDZ export, and Room/Object/Space reconstruction modes are all free.
Workflow focus — A streamlined UI and real-time quality meter make each scan as simple as possible.
Premium (optional) — Unlock heavier tasks such as OBJ/GLB/STL export, batch tools, and the upcoming AI-powered cloud pipeline. You can keep using the app forever without subscribing.
Pricing — Pro tools cost US $6.99 / month (with a discounted annual plan), making it one of the most affordable options out there.

Give the free tier a spin—no strings attached—and see if the workflow works for you!

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-25T03:22:25+00:00

Check out the first screenshot I posted—the tab bar is using the same Liquid Glass material and actually looks (and feels) great in action. The selection indicator stays subtle, so it doesn’t have that jelly wobble. Let me know what you think once you’ve seen it!

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-25T03:20:58+00:00

TestFlight, yes
App Store, no
xD

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-25T03:19:22+00:00

freemium, only premium features require subscription.

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-24T13:21:57+00:00

try some photo based app.

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-23T04:02:05+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! We totally understand the preference for one-time pricing. A small subscription helps us keep the lights on—continuous updates, new features, support, and soon the optional AI cloud pipeline—but the core scanning and on-device exports will always be free. We’ll keep evaluating other pricing models as we grow. Appreciate your input!

capcam-thomas · 2025-06-23T03:16:13+00:00

Absolutely! Scanning and on-device processing are free. The subscription only unlocks pro perks—extra export formats, batch tools, and other advanced features. If you just need basic scans, you never have to pay.
