TapPainter
Plenty of redecorating projects run into hot water when a person cannot decide which tin of paint to use, or even worse, when they regret painting a room with a gaudy color. That is where TapPainter comes in as the ideal tool for simulating what your room would look like with a certain color on the wall.
Just take a photo of the room you would like to paint and upload it to the application, which will then allow you to cycle through different types of paint to see how they would look. The app takes this simulation a step further by allowing you to consider how the room’s lighting affects the paint job, as well as the edges of the wall and darker areas in the room in general.
iHandy Carpenter
This app is ideal for iPad or iPhone users who are struggling with their remodeling job due to not having some essential tools, such as protractors, rulers, and spirit levels appropriate for small scale construction.
The iHandy Carpenter will provide you with all the above-mentioned tools, as Apple’s products generally have built-in sensors which will provide the information needed for such measurements.

This app is the perfect way to simulate how your room would look like with your redecoration plans in mind. Just take a photo of the room you would like to revamp and upload it into the app. You can then start playing around with different types of furniture, carpets, curtains, and other items while digitally inserting them into the photograph of your room.
