Choose your scanner

The first time you open Home the app asks which scanner you use. It asks once; afterwards you change it in Settings.

Scan mode

ButtonWhat it means
FaceID CameraScan with the TrueDepth camera in the device.
Structure SensorScan with a Structure Sensor mounted on the iPad.

If the device has no TrueDepth camera the question is skipped and Structure Sensor is selected for you.

Version

Only when you choose Structure Sensor:

ButtonWhat it means
Structure 3The current sensor.
LegacyThe older sensor. Choosing Legacy switches the sensor to compatibility mode straight away.
note

The first-start question calls the older sensor Legacy; Settings calls the same choice Structure Mark II. They are the same choice.

If you chose Structure Sensor, set the hardware up first: see Structure Sensor setup.
