Stand inside the front door and walk the home. LiDAR devices map rooms as you go; others mark corners by hand.

How it works

From front door to fix in four steps

1Start at the front doorStand inside, facing the door, and confirm the doorway. Everything is read from here.
2Walk the homeScan around the door, turn into the living area, then room by room. LiDAR devices scan automatically; others mark corners by hand.
3Follow the lightSee the flow on your plan and in AR, with each blockage named and explained.
4Change it and rescanPreview suggested moves, make the ones you like, and scan again to compare.

The flow

See your home’s flow

Form-school Feng Shui reads a home by the path from its front door: where it moves freely, where it squeezes, where it stops. Feng Shui AR draws that path on your floor plan and then shows it in the room itself, as light moving across your own floor.

  • The path starts at your front door and runs through every room it can reach.
  • Gold where it moves freely, amber where it is restricted, red where it is blocked.
  • Shown in AR, so you see the pinch point where it is, not on a diagram.

Every floor

Every floor, mapped

A house with stairs is scanned in one go: on iPhones and iPads with LiDAR, keep scanning as you walk up. Each floor gets its own plan, drawn straight and square, with a switcher above it. The flow and the findings are read from the floor with your front door, because form school reads a home from where you come in.

  • Stairs drawn on the plan, and flagged if they rise straight ahead of the front door.
  • Upstairs shown as its own plan, not stacked over the floor below.
  • Without LiDAR, hand-mapping covers one floor.

The reading

Discover flow blockages

The result names what it found and where: a cabinet in the first step inside the door, a passage narrowed to 75 cm, a bed in line with its door. Each finding is worded as what tradition says about it, with the usual remedy.

  • A Home Flow Score out of 100, built from entrance, circulation, connectivity, furniture placement and continuity.
  • Beds and desks checked against the command position.
  • The Bagua map laid over your plan, by front door or by compass.

You

Make your home personal

Add your birth date, time and place and the app works out your BaZi chart: Four Pillars, Five Elements, the elements said to favour you. With a compass heading it then looks at where your bed and desk sit and which way you face.

  • Favourable directions, colours and materials for your chart.
  • A note for each bed and desk: keep it, or consider turning it.
  • Daily, monthly and yearly readings, luck cycles and compatibility.

BaZi + Feng Shui

The place, and the person

Feng Shui reads the home. BaZi, the Four Pillars, reads the person from their birth date and time. The five elements are the bridge: a chart’s favourable elements have directions, colours and materials, and those can be applied to where you sleep and work.

  • Your Four Pillars chart and five-element balance.
  • A daily reading with what the day is said to suit.
  • Compatibility between two charts, side by side.

Questions

Is Feng Shui AR on the App Store and Google Play?

Yes. It is on the App Store for iPhone and iPad and on Google Play for Android phones. On iPhone and iPad it comes in English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean (Japanese and Korean from version 1.1). On Android it is in English, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese for now.

Do I need an iPhone with LiDAR?

No. iPhones and iPads with LiDAR scan rooms with Apple RoomPlan as you walk. On other devices you map each room by marking its corners and doorways by hand. On Android, scanning uses Google ARCore, so the phone needs Google Play Services for AR. Either way the map starts at your front door.

How long does a scan take?

On an iPhone or iPad with LiDAR, about 2 minutes for the first room: you walk it and the app maps it. Without LiDAR you mark corners and doorways by hand, which takes about 5 minutes. A whole home takes longer, since you walk each room. The app needs iOS 18 or later.

Does the app measure qi?

No. Feng Shui and BaZi are traditional interpretive practices. The app applies their rules to your floor plan and your birth details; it does not scientifically detect qi, and its readings are not medical, financial, legal, psychological or structural advice.

What does the scan actually check?

Form-school layout: what stands just inside the front door, whether the door lines up with a window or another door, what the door looks at, stairs rising straight ahead of it, where furniture narrows or cuts the path through the home, crowded rooms, dead ends, rooms the path cannot reach, sharp corners aimed at a bed, sofa or desk, and whether beds and desks are in the command position.

Can it scan a house with more than one floor?

Yes, on iPhones and iPads with LiDAR and on Android. Keep scanning as you walk up the stairs and each floor gets its own plan, with a switcher above it. The flow, the Bagua and the findings are read from the floor with your front door. On iPhones and iPads without LiDAR, hand-mapping maps one floor.

Where are my floor plans and birth details stored?

Only on your device. There is no account and no cloud sync. Camera frames are processed on the device and are never uploaded or stored; only the resulting floor plan is saved. The free version shows ads and the app sends a few anonymous usage events and crash reports; the privacy policy lists exactly what leaves the device.

What does it cost?

The free version analyses the first room of a home and includes one BaZi profile plus one other person and a basic daily reading, with ads. Pro is US$9.99 a month or US$39.99 a year, each with a 3-day free trial for eligible new subscribers. A one-time purchase of US$14.99 unlocks the complete analysis for one home. Your App Store or Google Play shows the local price.

The tradition

What is Feng Shui?

Feng Shui is a Chinese tradition of arranging buildings and rooms. Its oldest branch, the form school, reads a place by its shape: where you enter, how you move through it, what stands in the way, and whether the places you rest and work feel supported. Other schools add the compass, the calendar, and the person.

It is an interpretive practice, not a science, and this app treats it that way. What it adds is measurement of the layout the tradition is talking about: your door, your walls, your furniture, to scale.
