Place on a wall
Use augmented reality to see a drawing on the real wall at true size, slide it into position, and photograph it.
Place shows a drawing on a real wall, at true size, through the camera. Hold it up to see whether the cabinet fits the alcove, how high the shelf sits, or how big the mirror will look.
How to use
- Open a note or drawing and tap Place.
- Point the phone at the wall and move it slowly from side to side until it says Wall found.
- Aim the centre mark where the drawing should go and tap Place.
- Drag to slide the drawing along the wall into position.
- Tap the shutter to photograph it on the wall, then share the photo or add it to the note.
Re-place
Lifts the drawing off the wall, so you can aim at another spot or another wall.
Approximate preview
Always on screen, because this is a preview: true scale on an iPhone that can measure depth, rough scale on one that can't.
Line colour
Tap to fan out the other colours, then pick one that shows up against the wall.
Shutter
Freezes the picture. Retake goes back for another, Add to note keeps it in the note, and Share sends it on.
If the phone loses track of the room, Place says so. Point back at the wall, or tap Start over. Very large drawings are too big to place: hide the layers you don't need and try again.
