Zillow 3D Home 4+

Amazing tool for the iPhone and realtors

I have been using this ever since they came out with the technology to do so and it’s only gotten better over the years. With everyone of my clients listings, I can do a free walk-through for them with just using my iPhone and this program.

Very good

Putting together in interactive tour with just an iPhone (or a 360° cam and tripod for even better results) in just about an hour is totally possible. Once I link two rooms why not have the app automatically create an editable link back by default..? I also think that being able to add 3D-labels to objects would be great (although placing them correctly in 3D space might be a challenge). Still not sure how several panos within one room/area are supposed work when it comes to linking..? Also, none of the examples appear to demonstrate the 2D floor plan created with markers, why..?
I also don’t understand why adding a pano after the fact destroys all links, seems unnecessary.
But all that said, great offering for free!

They aren’t progressing

This app was hard to deal with from the very beginning. It’s almost like they didn’t want to beta test before launching. Now those bugs are out, but here is why my rating is low...

1) I had to buy a used ipad because they don’t support Samsung even though Samsung is the most popular phone brand at 20% of the market and apple only at 14.

2) the user can’t edit paths when the tour is complete. Other apps allow me to edit the paths myself. Since Zillow doesn’t know where some rooms lead, you run into dead ends A LOT.

3) They aren’t improving these things, yet they also don’t allow you to embed 360 tours from other brands so you are stuck using a subpar app.

4) I have been using them since the start and had my “Zillow certification” status for 3 or 4 years. even though I am the same owner of a different company, I am forced to reapply for the cert again AND now instead of just uploading videos, they changed their rules to require 360 uploads. Why require something when people sometimes prefer not to use your app for it?

The only reason I use this app is because about half of my agents want these tours on Zillow as well
