Presently, Capture uploads in the background, which is good. Can you add visual progress of this uploading? (Same progress bar as Upload is fine.)

When deleting a scan, can you auto-detect that it is a "support beam" and warn about deleting it? (So the house of cards does not collapse)

Add a unique, possitive sound when scan is successfully added to mini map. This way, I can save neck strain by not needing to look at iPad so often. Do a six mile model and the head strain adds up.

Add compass setting (north) fo first scan. This will be helpful for gyro viewing (and VR) mode on an iPad, for example.

No need to add a sensor. I would be happy using the iPhone compass app to know which way is North and aim the camera accordly.

For those in the know, it just works because you set the default North for the first scan.

For those that do not care, doesn't matter, unless it is important to know that the orientation was set (my preference) phase 2 advance feature: reset North in CMS.

About an existing trim (that you want to edit), why do I need to enlarge Mimi-map to grab and edit? Does not feel intuitive for first time users.

Trim tools are hard to use at the outer edge of the mini-map. Takes two hands: one to stretch and movie the mini map and the other hand to use the trim tool.

Add progress bar to delete scans. When you delete many scans, hard to tell if something is happening.

Add progress bar to duplicate model. When you duplicate model, hard to tell if something is happening.

When the app crashes, does it auto-generate a report to Matterport? If not, generate report if user opts in to do this.

Sequence numbering – represented by (1) when uploaded – no longer works.

If you make changes to a model and upload it again then ...
(1) should change to (2) and so forth.

All trim lines should display in mini-map: not outside of viewable area that you then need to use two hands to view and edit.

Thank you @ericthomas for this idea...

"... adding a detached building button to go along with new floor on the app.#

For example, 18 bungalows close together - same Inn - but not attached.

For outdoor scans be able to set the boundary for the floor plan/ dollhouse view and the boundary for the walkthrough differently as it can be sickening walking along the edge of an outdoor scan.

Marking a window in a a A shaped room always results in rectangular window going to the highest point in the room. This "window" is taller than the room on the edges and makes it look really weird. Something in software so that the window does not pass the height of the walls.

Since the update, when you accidentally hit the lock button during a scan and then quickly reopen the app, the scan does not take and the scanner goes all 6 phases. would be nice if it would just reconnect like it used to or at least stop the scanner. Time wasted adds up.

i'm not sure if this has been covered yet.
I have been moving the camera and beginning another scan before the previous scan has been "aligned" and added to the mini map.
If the previous scan does not align for any reason, then the current scan is useless and needs to be canceled if still in 6 phases or deleted because it also won't align.
I would like the non aligning scans to have an option to save them added to the popup window "learn more" or "ok", because inserting an in between scan could attach the 2 non aligning scans and would not need to be re done.
make sense?

Echoing what weinigergHomes just posted that could save ALOT of time.

When a scan fails do not delete the data.
Alert us that the scan alignment failed.
Save the data.
Take a intermediate scan.
Retry alignment with saved data.

Same concept extended.

Allow meshing and alignment of multiple models or scans together rather than the add one at a time deal.

This could allow much faster scanning. 2 people could scan the same property each doing half and then mesh data together.

Camera needs to capture the image data a lot faster. (spin scan faster)

If after scan is completed I count to 5ish before i walk into the path of the camera even though the Matterport App tells you it is safe to move camera. I have caught blurs of myself by moving in front of the lens too early.

It would be very easy and convenient to be able to do everything from the ipad before the upload that way you would not need a computer and could deliver your client everything onsite.

Option to Unlock the model on upload.

Let you pick starting position by selecting a scan and then pointing in the correct direction.

Let you pick the featured image by selecting a scan and then pointing in the correct direction.

Let you pick other images by selecting a scan and then pointing them in the correct direction.

Let you pick what scans to disable for the walkthrough but include for the model building.

Use The Trim tools to calculate interior area.

Give you a unique model ID immediately so that you can help your client with it while you are there.
