Frequently Asked Questions

Live Home 3D is a free version that has some limitations, such as only one active project at a time, watermark on image and video export, and restrictions on export of 3D models.

The app contains in-app purchases:

  • Standard Features in-app (subscription or lifetime license) lifts restrictions on the number of projects, removes watermark on image and video export, and enables export of 3D models.
  • Pro Features in-app (subscription or lifetime license) removes all restrictions and adds Pro functionality.
