Real Estate Camera
A virtual staging app lets you stage a room from your phone instead of uploading photos to a website later. That's important when you're photographing your own listings. You can check the staged result while you're still in the room and, if the angle isn't right, reshoot on the spot. Real Estate Camera runs on iPhone, iPad and Android, and the web version uses the same account.
Why an app is better than a website for this
- No transfer step. Shoot in the app and stage from your camera roll. No AirDrop to a laptop.
- Fix poor angles on site. Staging requires the floor and two walls to be in frame. You'll know before you leave.
- One credit balance everywhere. Credits purchased on your phone can be used on the web, and vice versa.
