ReCap Pro for mobile is an iPad Pro application for capturing, registering, and analyzing data from the Leica BLK360 laser scanner. Captured projects can be transferred to ReCap Pro desktop via Lightning-to-USB cable. ReCap Pro for mobile can also download, view, annotate, and measure projects published from ReCap Pro desktop. Scan capture and registration are intended for use on the iPad Pro (10.5" and 12.9" versions). Other iPads may not work optimally.
Buggy
This app is great and repast to use...when it works. Cons — file transfer rate is unacceptably slow in the gigabit era — Must have internet connection to sign in — If connected to BLK360, there is no internet connection. If you suspend project, Recap kicks you out, demanding a login (again), which requires you to switch internet connection from unit back to WiFi, and then you have to sign in again — scanning with app works, but if there is any connection hiccup, the can will stop/fail, and typically won’t reinitialize properly without a reboot of the BLK360. — Autonumbering system keeps iterating when transferring from BLK in such a way that if a failed transfer occurs (which is often), a future reattempt to transfer will result in a new scan name in the project.
2 stars
I’m giving 1 star because of the multiple glitches while scanning with the BLK360. Large dark areas in photos. Also crashes when multitasking. Loses connection all the time. Importing scans are not always added to project folder. Please fix.
Would rate zero if i could
The whole point of leica and autodesk teaming up was to create a great device with software to back it up. Unfortunately, they have failed. Mechanically speaking the scanner works, HDR produces a noise for the entire bottom half of my image sphere and in standard pic mode there are black “wedges” in my image spheres from time to time. Other than that it scans as advertised. Recap Pro when it works...great. Problem is it rarely does! There are so many glitches and crashes that it does not deserve the title pro, rather beta. I want my money back.
Seems to do the job
App works fine with the Blk and allows me to scan review and markup the files right on the iPad. The only issue is that I am unable to multi task and switch to other tasks while scanning. If I switch applications the app loses connection with the blk and have to restart the scan. That would be the only issue. Otherwise integration with desktop Recap pro is seamless. Please fix the multitasking issue!
Complete junk
To say this software is buggy would be a tremendous understatement. Freezes, crashes regularly, full of glitches. Oh and let’s not forget it hasn’t been updated in over a year! I have little hope at this point that they will do anything to make this software functional.
