We collect most useful apps in the iTunes App Store (not only Pokémon Go, we don’t think that this game is popular in 2018). Maybe after reading article you will want to try them.

1. AR for shopping

“Check, is dream car suit for your garage with Edmunds”

The Edmunds car shopping app allows users to scan their garage or parking spot and then place virtual versions of different vehicles inside to confirm they’ll actually fit. It isn’t a replacement for a test drive, but why get your heart set on a giant Cadillac Escalade if you won’t be able to close your garage door once you get it home?

“How your room will look after redecorating?”

Repainting a room and replacing all the furniture and fixings to match is an expensive and arduous process. Everything from chairs to chandeliers can be virtually previewed in a room so you can see how they’ll look against a freshly painted wall. In Wayfair you might even end up liking a new chair so much you’d rather repaint the wall again to match.

2. Creativity

“Taste, how it’s like to be a graffitist”

World Brush lets users create virtual paintings that are only visible to other users of the app who happen upon the location you tagged. The artworks are anonymous, but can be liked or disliked which will help the app’s creators showcase impressive virtual paintings you’ll need to hunt down in the real world.

“Make your doodles real art with Morpholio Trace”

Morpholio’s new Traceapp makes it easy to doodle architectural-quality floor maps and layouts by simply tracing overlaid perspective lines. It works on photos or a live feed from a camera, and might finally make you feel better about spending all that money on an iPad Pro and that fancy Apple Pencil.

3. Tools

“How your morning run looks in real life?”

Using an open source mapping platform called Mapbox and Apple’s ARKit, users can access and visualize their Strava hiking, running, and cycling routes superimposed on 3D terrain, letting them see exactly how rigorous their workouts were. Fitness AR can also be used to virtually explore the terrain of other popular destinations, like a hike through Yosemite Valley.

“Find your lost keys with Pixie”

Pixie’s trackers will now take advantage of Apple ARKit to make it a lot easier to actually find something you’ve lost. Looking through your iOS device’s screen you’ll now see visual clues directing you to the lost object, instead of having to rely only on sound only like you’re hunting for torpedoes in a submarine.
