Connect a Compatible Bluetooth Laser Measurer

Increase the accuracy of your floor plans by using a compatible Bluetooth laser distance meter.

magicplan's AR Scan feature (iOS) is 95-98% accurate. However, for 100% accuracy, or for devices that cannot use our scanning features, you may wish to connect a Bluetooth laser meter. Read on to review the steps for connecting your Bluetooth laser meter, or click the link below to see the list of Bluetooth lasers that are compatible with magicplan.

Compatible Bluetooth Lasers

How to measure with your Bluetooth laser in the app: 

  1. Turn on your Bluetooth laser meter, then open your project.
  2. Open a floor plan.
  3. Tap on a room to enter it, and tap on a wall or object. 
  4. You can access the element's measurements in two ways:
    1. Tap the wall or element you wish to edit, then access the details menu.
      1. On a tablet, tap the "i" icon in the upper right corner. On a mobile phone, swipe up from the bottom of the screen once the element is selected.
      2. Tap on the measurement in the details menu.
    2. Tap the visible blue numeral measurement of the element directly on the floor plan. 
  5. In the "Change Measurement" pop-up, tap the "Laser" option. You will see a list including "My Devices" and "Nearby Devices." Tap "Connect" next to the model you are using. Once your device is connected, it will be moved to the "My Devices" section.
  6. Proceed to scan the distance with your laser, then tap "Done". 
  7. To continue measuring other dimensions with your laser meter, repeat steps 2-5.
