I love this app and have used it for years. I liked it so much that I upgraded to the highest version of the game a few years ago (I think it was called the gold version). I did this while being told you will receive all future packs and updates at no extra charge because you’ve bought the gold version. Now they have added a gold plus version that includes more things than the gold version, even though they said the gold version would include everything in the future. It really frustrates me because I spent the money to upgrade knowing I’d have all future updates and it turns out I don’t, and will have to spend $11 more to get a few more items because of the new “gold plus” version. Another problem I have with the upgrades is that if you spend $9 to get the gold version, you can’t decide to upgrade to the gold plus version in the future for a discount even though you’ve already spent $9. You would have to pay the full $11. So in total they would be taking $20 from you to get the gold plus version instead of just $11. If you’ve already spent $9 you should be able to spend only $2 more to get the gold plus version. I would not recommend this app to anyone for these reasons.

Sincerely,
An unsatisfied customer

I wish I would have listened to the reviews. The description and trailer for this app is all glory, but when you try to replicate and design the house yourself it’s awfully complicated. I am very tech savvy and work in IT. This was just too much! I even downloaded the desktop version for my Mac, that helped because doing it on the phone was impossible. The worst part is that the tutorial videos are too busy trying to impress you instead of actually taking the time to help you. The mouse and trackpad gestures will have you selecting items at some times and zooming in at other times. I never to create a “visit” walk through of the house because it would only pan in one room, not how the demo gracefully shows the point of view of going through the entire house! Create a video on how the full “visit” is captured. Also, I built my complete floor plan and for the life of me could not add the tile. The tile texture keep going on the walls and everywhere but the floor! Please create on start to finish tutorial with a live instructor! Also, there should be a ways to type in the dimensions for accuracy. Pinching and dragging the rooms to get the size is annoying. If there is a way to do this I could not find it in the tutorial videos. I hope this review is long enough to get someone’s attention and do something about it. I was unable to submit a mock-up trying to figure this app. Get at me and hire me as quality tester!

I love this app, it’s fairly good and helps with my artwork, but there are several things that could be improved. The first is that there should be a wider range of styles. Most of the options are modern, which is great, but if you want a more traditional house (aka traditional staircases or fireplaces) you’re screwed. The second is that there are no roofing options that I have seen. You can change the texture but you can’t make slope roofs or skylights. This app is perfect if you’re modeling a one story or box home, but the individuality of old style homes is lacking. You also can’t create backsplash or walls with more then one texture. The third thing is that you can’t even save your work until you’ve paid the seven dollars to upgrade it. I can understand paying money for items, but paying money before you can do anything is a bit extreme. A better option would be to have a free trial and THEN pay the money after you’ve decided you like it or not. Another thing is that it glitches. When you adjust the walls the objects will move, and if there are hidden pieces of wall in a longer wall you can’t adjust height or width. I feel that the app is pretty cool, but lacking in character, options, and explanations. If the glitches were fixed, the free trial included, and the home options expanded to include more styles, the app would be worth the money. As it is now it’s slightly overpriced.
