Show HN: Roomantic – See if that piece furniture fits before buying it

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/roomantic-furniture-planner/id6759999318
1•jfrbfbreudh•39m ago
Roomantic is a project I started working on earlier this year when I learned that iPhone Pro models have a LiDAR scanner and almost no practical apps that take advantage of it.

It uses Apple’s RoomPlan API to generate floor plans, and then allows you to paste in links to furniture and visualize if it would fit into your space.

Every feature is free, a subscription option exists if you want unlimited furniture placements (since those actually cost me money).

I tried my best to make the app beautiful, since features are now so cheap to build using AI, so any feedback would be appreciated.

It primarily supports U.S. retailers, but if there is any international interest, I’d be happy to build that out in the future.

Thanks!
