Review summary

Overall: Users praise Polycam for high-detail scans, fast workflows, and easy exports (DWG/OBJ/STL) with a simple UI. However, they repeatedly cite access and cost barriers: mandatory accounts, sign-up/login problems, subscriptions required for exporting, quotas and perceived hidden charges, and refund/billing friction. Several reviews question Android availability (some claim iPhone-only) and report reliability issues (failed captures, poor room scans, background not removed). Import limits (no own data import, no drone video) also surface. The app shows strong potential, but access, cost, and reliability concerns limit its usefulness for many users.
Pros
  • High-detail scans and accurate 3D models, especially with curved objects, with good remeshing.
  • Fast workflow that saves time and lets you measure on the model later.
  • Easy export to common formats like DWG, OBJ, and STL for integration.
  • User-friendly interface and simple UI.
  • Some free scans or trial period available for evaluation.
Cons
  • Pricing and licensing barriers: export requires a paid subscription; free tier is limited and there are quotas.
  • Account signup/login friction and Android compatibility issues (mandatory accounts; sign-up problems; some reviews say iOS-only).
  • Reliability issues: failed captures/uploads and inconsistent results for room scans.
  • Data import restrictions: no option to import your own data and no drone video support.
  • Refunds and billing friction: difficulty cancelling or obtaining refunds.

Absolutely amazing app, great to render low res objects without using a high end PC with Blender. Obviously you need to know how to properly render an object not just spamming the button, but it's simply just take all angles. Great App.
