my little Rosarita ,

Completely frustrating

I am changing my review from a 3 star to a 5 star review now. I have to say I was completely confused and had a difficult time at first learning the app. In fact, I’m still learning. There’s so much you can do with this app. The possibilities are amazing! What really changed my outlook and rating was how wonderful and quick the developers always get back to you. They have been so extremely helpful for someone like me who didn’t have a clue about architecture or technical stuff. I love knowing that if I ever need more advice, they will always be friendly and there to help. They deserve a 5 star rating! I am really loving the house plans I have come up with! We are literally building our own home off grid, so seeing these house plans especially in 3D has really made a huge difference for my husband to understand and put into perspective. He can finally know exactly what I have in mind and I believe with a detailed plan like this, it will save us from making the wrong decisions since we get to see an actual image of our house before we build it. Also, it’s much easier to use a tablet or PC with this app. Thank you so much!

Developer Response ,

Hello Rosarita! Thank you for the feedback! The app is not that hard to use actually. Most of the problems you described come from the bad connections of the walls. You need to check the 2D plan and delete/redraw the wall segments that have a red dot mark. Some extra wall segments on the plan usually cause this issue.
We recommend you to check the app video tutorials available through the Main Menu / Help option. These videos show all aspects of the app's functioning.
As to the 3D items in the library. The app has an integration with the Trimble 3D Warehouse, you may download literally millions of free models from there. We also offer some paid content packs that add the optimized, had-picked items to the Library.

Kind Regards,

was my favorite app but the recent update made me hate the app

I’ve been using this app for a year. It was great. First week of downloading the free app made me upgrade to pro features because this app is really great. You can import textures or furnitures from the 3D Trimble warehouse and you can even upload a picture and use it as a texture. Unlimited floors (if you using pro feature) and you can even make your own templates. There are a few bugs like the app suddenly closes for no reason, or I can’t save the project even though I have plenty of storage and my phone is working good (I actually have games that requires higher storage and graphics but it’s not laggy), but I can work with this annoying problems. The thing is that the new update is really annoying. You can no longer select all identical textures and replace them with new texture. Now you have to change them one by one. The app crashes every 3-5 minutes, when opening past projects (a week or month ago) they are just black when opening in 3D but you can see the project in 2D and 2D elevation. I thought uninstalling and installing the app will resolve the bugs but NO. It became worst. I can’t even work on a new project and import objects because it just crashes every time I do something. Now I am done with this app and I don’t think I will use this again.

Developer Response ,

Hello! Please, make sure you have updated the app to the latest version (4.0.2). This is a rare bug that appeared on some complicated heavy projects. We did our best to fix it with the latest update. If the issue remains, please contact our support at support@belightsoft.com. We’ll do our best to find the reason for such app behavior.
As to the application of the textures, nothing has changed in this process. We still apply the material to identical textures through the Inspector / Object Materials tab.
Overall, the app received tons of new features, you may check the list of them here:

Dear Evan Handsoap ,

great for personal use

i absolutely love this app, whenever my creative senses are tingling, i just open the app an decorate a room or two. i wouldn’t recommend this for professional use because there are many glitchy items and some items, like rugs, aren’t available. however, this is a REAL design game, it’s not like those that claim you get to design a house but instead you have to play puzzles and only have two or three furniture choices. here are my suggestions and flaws with this game: 1. it’s pretty hard to rotate items, i wish there was a button of some sorts that could rotate the item. 2. some items are too big or too small and there should be some way to change the size. 3. the trees are a bit odd, instead of being 3D like everything else, they are almost like 2D images that just kind of follow you around. 4. it’s pretty sensitive. when trying to move an item a tiny bit, it moves A LOT, and same for when you’re trying to move forwards. and 5. i wish that items didn’t go through walls. it makes it pretty hard to put an item against the wall, and sometimes the trees go into the house. although this may seem like a lot of flaws, i HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this app!

Developer Response ,

Hello! Thank you for your kind words about our app. Actually, most of the “flaws” you mentioned have a solution in the app. For example, the rugs of any form are created with the help of Custom Floor tool in 2D; all what you need to do after that is apply the material “Fabric” from the material library to it; not sure what glitchy items you mentioned, would be great to know. As to your suggestions: 1) there are three ways to rotate any item in the app: a) using the handles in 2D, b) using the controls in the Object Properties tab of the Inspector (works in 2D and 3D); c) using the special gestures in 3D (these gestures are described in Quick Start Guide); 2) resize of the objects is done with the help of the Object Properties tab of the Inspector; the controls may be disabled only if it is a group, to overcome it, simply right-click on the item and perform Merge operation on it; 3) the items you mentioned are “sprite objects”, they are optimised for the big projects; putting many “heavy” trees on the background can make performance in 3D a bit sluggish; also, we offer a special in-app containing 300+ plants, it has many additional trees of any kind; 4) it is recommended to use 2D or Elevation View for precise positioning of the objects; zoom in may also work, if the object is tiny; 5) there is a control ”glue by” in the Object Properties tab of the Inspector, it allows to place the object on any surface, which helps to avoid “going into walls” situation. We would recommend you to check our collection of free video tutorials at: https://www.livehome3d.com/ios/live-home-3d#tutorials These videos cover all aspects of app functioning.
