The video is 40 seconds: the first part is the list of what the app already did, the second is what's new in 4.5. Short version of what xDesk is: folders, and inside them cards you design yourself (text, dates, photos, maps, tables, signatures, files — any field, any size, on a grid). Around that: shared lists, deadlines and timers, a recorder that transcribes on the phone, a document scanner, trips and workouts, a small stockroom. Everything lives on your own iCloud. There's no account to create and no server of mine in between. What's new in 4.5, and why I built it: - **Rooms in 3D.** You scan a room and get walls, doors and furniture as simple coloured boxes. Then you tap a cabinet and note what's in it — each item is a card, with a photo if you want. Later you search "spare keys" and the room turns to the right piece of furniture. This is the feature I wanted for myself: I kept losing things inside my own house. - **Object scan.** Walk around an object and keep a 3D model. Honest note: the result is not Avatar level, it's a little rough, not a studio scan. I show it rough in the video on purpose. - **Measure.** Width, height, depth and volume in AR. - **Photos while recording.** During a site visit or a meeting you take a photo without stopping the recording; it lands on the timeline at its minute, next to the transcript. Limits, before someone asks: - Room and object scans need an iPhone or iPad with LiDAR, and they're in the paid tier. Measure works without LiDAR too. - Apple only: iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. No Android, no web. - Sync is iCloud: I can't see your data, which is the point, but it also means I can't fix a slow sync from my side. - It does a lot of things. That's a choice — I needed something unique in its functionality and not to mess around 5 or more apps to handle all my data The free plan is usable on its own, with real limits: up to 100 cards, one shared space, document scans as images only (no text recognition), PDFs with a small "Made with xDesk" line, and only the first minute of each recording transcribed. Pro removes those and adds searchable text inside scanned PDFs, the 3D scans and the stockroom. What I'd like from this sub: does "note what's inside the furniture, then search for it" sound like something you'd keep up, or is it the kind of system that's fun for a weekend and then dies? I'm trying to decide how much further to take it. for the offer simply go to: https://www.reddit.com/r/xDesk/s/72bpgrdp7N and read the post.   submitted by   /u/iLorTech [link]   [comments]
