The following is the text of an email (16 September 2014) from the Matterport Team announcing the Matterport 3D Capture App 2.0 update. ----- Matterport 3D Capture App 2.0 Dear Matterport Customer, We're excited to let you know about Matterport 3D Capture App 2.0, available in the Apple App Store on Wednesday, September 17. In response to your feedback, we’ve added a number of new features to Capture and updated the user interface. New Features Label Multiple Floors. We’ve added a feature that lets you scan up stairs and label floors. Duplicate and Delete Models. You can now duplicate and delete Models on the iPad. Re-upload Models. Models can be edited and uploaded again. You can add new Scans to the Model, and you can add or edit windows, mirrors, and trim mark-ups. Faster Capture. Data transfer and alignment now happen independently which allows you to move the camera to a new position sooner and capture spaces faster. Global Alignment. Scans now align to each other automatically so you don’t have to manually select an active scan to align to. Note While we have tested Capture App 2.0, there are still a few known issues. If you have important jobs coming up, we suggest you: A) Do not update your Capture app until we've released fixes to the known issues below in the next couple of weeks, or B) Install Capture App 2.0 on a second iPad so you have access to the current version of Capture if you encounter problems with Capture 2.0. Known Issues Bluetooth connection drops if you move the iPad too far away from the camera (usually 20+ ft), disconnecting the Camera from Capture App. We recommend staying within 20 feet of the Camera to maintain connectivity. Delete command does not completely delete Capture data from iPad, which can result in insufficient disk space to continue scanning. We recommend you back up non-essential data (i.e. music, video, other apps) using iTunes to free up as much disk space as possible. We recommend you read the updated Capture App 2.0 User Guide to learn more about the new features. If you have questions, contact us at support@matterport.com. Please be aware that live support will be available on a limited basis until September 24th. Thanks, The Matterport Team |

I'm going to hold off updating to 2.0 till I'm assured that Bluetooth and any other bugs are fixed. I regards to the player I've tried it on Android with no success. My iPad Air needs IOS 8 to view the viewer so until I know that IOS 8 won't have issues with Matterport I'm not upgrading. Reports so far stated that IOS 8 crashes when you do more then 100 scans. There may be other issues as well and I can't afford to take that chance as my iPad is used just for scanning. |

Hey Gary, Just want to confirm that crashes of greater than 100 scans related to the player, not the app. Sorry for any confusion. It's just that the more scans the harder it is for the mobile hardware to cope on playback. Sweep away...In saying all that Capture 2.0 is a headache at the moment, iOS 8.0 however is fantastic. Get on that for sure... |

furthermore that figure of 100 is approximate. It's actually a little less...and crashing of the player has ceased, it can just stall and run slow and blurry. Dependent on many factors including Internet connection. | ||

Thanks for that I'll upgrade to IOS 8 then but hold off on 2.0 Thanks again |

Yep, no worries. Perfect move. Wish I'd held off but couldn't help but be a guinea pig...Have you used the player on an iPad yet? It's amazing! | ||

The updates for viewer on iPad have been great, now I'm able to show clients real examples during my listing presentation without bringing my laptop. The iPad is very intuitive and allows them to get hands on feel for what we offer at no additional charge, that currently no other realtor has. | ||

The following is the text of an email (21 November 2014) from the Matterport Team. --- Matterport Workshop - Google Chrome Update Notice Dear Matterport Customer, Google recently released Chrome version 39, which you may notice in your browser's periodic updates. However, please be aware that this version of Chrome is not yet compatible with the Unity plug-in we use to power Workshop. If you are a Mac/OSX user you will need to use a different browser (e.g. Safari or Firefox) to access Workshop until Unity releases an update that allows their plug-in to work on Chrome v39. Matterport 3D Showcase is not affected by this update and will continue to work in Chrome. Again this only applies to Mac/OSX users who are trying to access Workshop on Chrome v39. We are in touch with Unity and will notify you as soon as their update is ready and the issue is resolved. Thanks, The Matterport Team Copyright © 2014 Matterport Inc. All rights reserved 140 S.

The following is the text of an email (23 December 2014) from the Matterport Team. -- Changes to Billing Dear Customer, We have two important updates regarding billing: 1. Model Processing Fee As you may know, Matterport Cloud Service Plans provide a specified number of free models each month – and models processed beyond that amount incur a $19 processing fee. We have not enforced processing fees to date. However, starting January 15, 2015, our $19 per model processing fee will apply once all free models each month are utilized. You’re welcome to review our complete pricing structure here. Unused model allotments cannot be carried over. Editing and re-uploading models will continue to be free. 2. Monthly Cloud Service Plan Billing Cycle Historically, Matterport Cloud Service Plans have been billed on the 15th day of the month following your purchase. Beginning February 1, 2015, based on customer feedback, the new monthly billing cycle will begin on the 1st day of the month following your camera purchase. Cloud service plans will be billed at the beginning of the calendar month and accumulated model processing fees will be billed at the end of each calendar month. In order to accommodate the change, we will bill a half month of cloud service and any applicable processing fees for the gap period of 1/15/15 to 1/31/15. Your full monthly allotment of free model processings for January will be honored during this 16-day period. The change to monthly billing will not affect current, Annual Cloud Service Plans. However, subsequent yearly renewals will begin on the 1st day of the month following the expiration of the current plan. If you have questions, please contact us at support@matterport.com. Thanks, The Matterport Team Copyright © 2014 Matterport Inc. All rights reserved 140 S. Whisman Rd, Suite A Mountain View, CA 94041 Corporate Office +1 (650) 641-2241 |
