## Description

Heges 3D Scanner lets you create 3D models using the selfie FaceID camera and/or LiDAR on iPhone/iPad Pro. Export options include STL, OBJ, PLY, USDZ and GLB; view models in AR and share results. It offers two modes: a PAID In-App Purchase-based 3D scanner mode and a Color camera mode for older devices. Screen Sharing and AR viewing are supported.

Device guidance and notes: FaceID is typically more accurate than LiDAR for fine detail; for best accuracy, use 0.5mm precision with FaceID and avoid LiDAR for small objects. The app is billed upfront to protect unsupported devices; FAQ at hege.sh/faq explains scanning tips and the download/sharing process. For questions, email support@hege.sh.

## Review summary

Users mainly praise Heges for high-detail scans and solid accuracy, especially with Face ID/LiDAR, plus handy features like device mirroring and a one-time purchase price. However, recurring drawbacks include a lack of a trial, frequent tracking instability, occasional crashes on some devices, and a clunky UI. Several reviews also note a perceived decline in quality versus earlier versions. Overall, it’s valued for workflow advantages and detail on capable devices, but reliability and usability concerns deter broader satisfaction.

### Pros

- Very high-detail scans and accuracy, especially with Face ID or LiDAR
- Real-time screen mirroring/preview on another iOS device for workflow efficiency
- One-time payment (no subscription) and good value
- Supports older non-LiDAR iPhones, increasing accessibility
- Responsive developer support and quick troubleshooting mentioned by users

### Cons

- No free trial or test option before purchase, perceived as bait-and-switch
- Tracking often loses acquisition or requires slow, careful handling (recovering from tracking error)
- Stability issues including crashes on certain devices or camera modes
- Poor UI/UX design reported as unclear or hard to navigate
- Perceived decline in scan quality over time compared with earlier versions
