Luma Flythroughs Reviews

I thought this was going to create a virtual tour, but it’s just a stabilized video. And the pricing is confusing as others have mentioned. The developers have another app called Luma AI where you can do the same thing for free

The description for the in app purchase is not clear and I paid $10 for a single test video export when I thought I was unlocking the ability to export all captures. Not a great start to a new app, probably won't use it again.

Always get the error message upload failed, data is missing. Not able to make it work. Even I am using the latest version.

I made a video. Paid the $10 thinking the weird smudges would go away and save as HD. Horrible video quality and a waste of money.

The results look great, but beware, this is not a subscription based app. It is $10 per export.

I tried LumaFlythroughs three times for two different location
1) it took forever to upload one video even more than 45 minutes which is an obstacle for realtors as they are trying to get the job done faster
2) the video quality was very disappointing
3) you need to have a wifi to get the job done, it would not work its best on data
4) the pricing plan is overpriced for a single video that is not even near good

I like LumaFlythroughs idea but it needs much work to get the one

Pricing should be clear from the beginning but I feel Luma will fix this. It does have bugs on exports.

It also needs some pricing options I feel, such as monthly or even an annual subscription for heavy users.

The ability to enhance the colors, brightness and sharpness on the videos would also be a great addition.

I feel at least one export should be free , like a 10 second one for those wanting to experiment with LumaFlythroughs to get used to it.

My video was blurry and only 3 secs long & should have been over a minute. I paid for this & not happy

This review applies to version 1.2 of LumaFlythroughs .

I created an account using Apple’s “Hide my email” feature, then began creating my video. I thought it was odd that it wouldn’t let me proceed unless I gave it access to my location, but it said I could revoke access later. You either need it or you don’t, and if you don’t, then let me skip the part where you ask for that access.

After I created the video, I adjusted its location to “No location” because there’s no reason the company needs to know where I recorded the video, and then uploaded it. It said it would notify me when the flythrough was ready, so I waited. After a while I received a notification saying it was ready, but when I opened LumaFlythroughs , the thumbnail displayed a loading spinner and the video said it was still on the “NERF training” step, and gave me no option to download it or even pay to download it. The entry for that video in the flythrough list also displayed my location even though it was supposed to have been removed.

After waiting for about an hour, I thought maybe something was stuck and restarting my phone might get it unstuck, but after I restarted my phone and reopened LumaFlythroughs , it had logged me out and the “Log in with Apple” button only gave me the option of logging in with my Apple ID instead of the alias I had created earlier. Not sure if I’m missing something. I’d like to ask them to delete my account, and I had noticed that the profile screen has an option to do that, but I can’t get to my profile screen if I can’t log in.

I went to LumaFlythroughs ’s page here on LumaFlythroughs store and tapped on the “App support” link, which took me to their website, but when I tapped on the Contact button, I’m guessing it’s a mailto link because it tried to open the native mail app which I don’t have set up because I prefer to use a different one. There is no support or feedback mechanism in LumaFlythroughs itself that I could see, at least if you’re not logged in.

The experience was disappointing and somewhat frustrating. I’m not sure if that’s because I stepped a little bit outside of what the developers probably anticipated, or if it wouldn’t have worked anyway. Let me know if I just did something wrong; otherwise, I’m happy to amend this review if the developers fix LumaFlythroughs and leave me a response here notifying it.
