Capture real objects as digital 3D models with a camera or LiDAR. Check whether the app needs LiDAR or can build a model from photos, and look for export formats your modeling software can open.
Realform uses on-device LiDAR and photogrammetry to scan objects, rooms, buildings, and people, then edit and export 3D models or floor plans. Free exports include USDZ, STL, 3MF, and PNG; a one-time Pro purchase unlocks additional formats and removes ads. Scanning requires a compatible iPhone Pro or iPad Pro with LiDAR, and results are estimates rather than survey-grade measurements.
A TrueDepth-based 3D scanning app for capturing color and depth, reviewing models, organizing scans, and exporting files.
The capture step is only part of scanning. A useful tool also helps you spot missing surfaces before you put the object away.
Some tools let you crop stray geometry or simplify a mesh before export. Check how much editing requires another app.
