Maximum Scan Size
For the best accuracy, we recommend scanning buildings up to 10,000 sq ft / 900 m².
That said, we've had successful scans for properties up to 50,000 sq ft. To maximise your chances of a successful large scan, make sure to:
Keep your app updated to the latest version.
Close all background apps before starting the scan.
Ensure your device has sufficient storage available.
Use a recent, well-performing device.
iOS Only — Handling Long Scans, Large Properties & Preventing Crashes
Long scans can be demanding on device memory. CubiCasa has built-in features to help you get a smooth, successful result without losing your progress. Here are two highly effective workarounds:
1. Scan and Save in Parts
Instead of capturing a large property all at once, break it into smaller sections:
Scan for a few minutes.
End the scan to save your progress.
Resume scanning from where you left off, making sure to relocate and re-align so the sections stitch together correctly.
Repeat until the entire property is covered.
Only send for processing once you've scanned everything.
💡 If the app crashes, you can pick up from your last save point instead of restarting the entire scan.
2. Turn Off "Show Mesh" (LiDAR Devices Only)
If you're using a LiDAR device, rendering the mesh live on screen uses significant processing power. Turning it off keeps your device running smoothly.
To disable it: Profile → Application Settings → toggle off "Show mesh while scanning"
✅ Turning off Show Mesh does not affect your final model quality — it only reduces memory usage while scanning.
