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.
