An option to not include 'objects' while scanning would be good, as sometimes the app starts picking up all that it sees and confuses with which is the wall, so switching off objects might help. Also being manually able to close a a minor portion would be great, as certain corners struggle to close off either due to poor light or other factors, which then requires to repeat or discard the whole scan.

Need open concept to work in auto scan. 95% of my projects involve these types of homes. Split levels with open concept.

Ability to add objects to auto scan would be nice. Manually adding outlets and such, like you can do in manual scan. From the scanning mode.

The GPS positioning of the scan changes when the phone times out/screen locks is during the process of scanning (i.e., scan a few walls but don’t complete room, phone sleeps, you awaken phone, room is now rotated 90 degrees and off center by several feet)

When using auto scan on some of my testing I noticed if you accidentally tipped the iPad a bit too much and put it into landscape mode it would stop the scanning and you would lose all your progress. Not sure if it’s possible but seems like when scanning, the iPad should be locked into portrait mode, sometimes you need to put the iPad down for a second possibly and would be great if that did not abruptly stop the scanning process and lose your scan.

Hi Sensible Clownfish , while we're reviewing all the feedback we're getting on the AR scan, there is a workaround you can check out in the meantime: you can already prevent the landscape/portrait mode switch by enabling the lock screen from the notification center (top right menu in all iPad devices).

The Auto Scan is a great feature and one that i use often.
My improvment suggestion would be to add objects as you scan similar to how object's are added during the Manual Scan.
During the Auto Scan after a room is being labelled it would be great to add objects from the library into that room before moving onto another room.
We have a lot of custom objects that we use and this feature would speed up the process even more.

Hey Guys, been an ongoing theme, I am aware of the beta tag, but scans, often where rooflines within a room vary, will often just randomly merge rooms. Small spaces are a struggle, eg closets. With inaccessible spaces, like chimney cavities which closets adjacent, sometimes it will add additional rooms underneath, which can make fixing the issue manually a time consuming endeavour. - Jonno Daley
