Worth noticing
The page warns users to verify saved marks before drilling or cutting; AR alignment and measurements are approximate.

Field notes

The described workflow combines saved project notes and photos with position and measurement marks, then uses a LiDAR-equipped iPhone to capture approximate visible surface geometry. Users can return to a project and resume AR at its original location, but the page advises checking alignment against physical references. Projects stay in local app storage unless exported or shared, and device backups may also contain app data.
