How to Use the 3D Floor Planner on Mobile

With the Houzz Pro app, there are many ways to interact with the 3D Floor Planner. You can create a new 3D floor plan by using the 3D Room Scanner, or you can view an existing 3D floor plan. At this time, you cannot edit an existing floor plan within the mobile app — you will need to use your desktop computer to do this.

To start using the mobile 3D Floor Planner, you will first need to download the Houzz Pro app from the App Store or Google Play. 

Create New 3D Floor Plan

To create a new 3D floor plan using the 3D Room Scanner, open up the Houzz Pro app. From the homepage, you can either:

• Select 3D Room Scan from the Create New section at the top of your screen.
• Click the Create button at the bottom of your screen, then select 3D Room Scan from the menu.

You will then be directed to slowly move your device to start capturing the room's measurements. For a step-by-step guide on how to complete a mobile scan, read How to Scan a Room With the Mobile App.

Once your scan is complete, you will be able to save your floor plan to a project and make measurement or design changes from your desktop computer. You could also turn it into a PDF to keep for yourself or share with your clients.

View Existing 3D Floor Plan

While you are not able to edit an existing 3D floor plan's measurements or design on your mobile app, you can view existing floor plans on your device.

To view a 3D floor plan, open up the Houzz Pro app. From the homepage, you can either:

• Scroll down to the 3D Floor Plans section, then select the relevant floor plan.
• Click the More button at the bottom of you screen, then select 3D Floor Plans from the menu. You will then see a list of all your floor plans and can select the relevant file.
• Click the Project button at the bottom of your screen, then select the relevant project. From here, scroll down to the 3D Floor Plans section, where you will find a list of your floor plans for that specific project.

Once you open a specific floor plan, you will be able to:

• View the plan in 2D or 3D mode by selecting the relevant mode.
• Rename the plan by clicking the pencil icon next to the title.
• Share the plan by clicking the share icon at the top of your screen.
• Zoom in and out of the plan by clicking directly on the plan itself.
• Open up the AR scanning experience by clicking the AR icon.

From your 3D Floor Plan list, you can also click the three dots icon on the right of your plan to Share, Rename or Delete.
