Floor plan app for phone, tablet and computer
FloorGen is a floor plan app that runs in your browser: on an iPhone, an iPad, an Android phone or tablet, a Chromebook, Windows or a Mac, with nothing to install. The phone gets a touch layout with the tools along the bottom, the tablet gets the full editor, and a computer adds a keyboard and a big screen. It is free to start, without an account.

Walk through the house on a tablet or phone

Using it on your devices, in detail
How to use it on your phone or tablet
- Open FloorGen in your browser. Go to floorgen.app in a current browser such as Safari or Chrome. There is nothing to download.
- Pick a starting point. Open a furnished template, start a blank plan or a plot of your size, or trace a photo or PDF of a plan.
- Draw. Pick Room in the bottom dock and drag, or Wall and tap from corner to corner. Tap a wall with Door & window to place one.
- Furnish. Open Library from the rail at the top left. It opens as a bottom sheet on a phone and a drawer on a tablet.
- Look at it in 3D. Switch to 3D at the top right, and walk through it with the on-screen stick.
- Keep and share it. Sign in to keep the plan across your devices, or send a view-only page. Export to PDF, PNG and more from the Export icon in the top bar.
What it works on
Any device with a current browser: iPhone and iPad, Android phones and tablets, Chromebooks, and Windows and Mac computers. FloorGen is a web app, not an app-store app: there is no App Store or Google Play listing to look for, and nothing is installed on the device.
| Screen | Width | Layout |
|---|---|---|
| Phone | Under 640 px, or held sideways | Tool dock along the bottom, panels as bottom sheets |
| Tablet | 640 to 1279 px | The desktop layout, with panels as full-height drawers |
| Computer | 1280 px and wider | Panels float beside the plan |
The phone layout
- Top bar. Back to your projects, the project name, search, save state, Undo, Redo, an Export icon and the account menu. Share, Plan summary and View options are in the account menu.
- Panels. Outline, Library, Finishes, Floors and Review open as bottom sheets, one at a time.
- Views. Switch between 2D, 3D and Elevations at the top right.
- Selection. Quick actions sit above the selected object, and its card docks above the tool dock as one line with its name, its size and Edit. Swipe it up for the full card.
- Gestures. Tap to select, drag to move, pinch to zoom, drag empty space to pan, long-press for more actions or to select an area.
What is limited on a phone or tablet
- Render. The photoreal Render dialog does not offer its largest size on a phone, a tablet or a computer with 4 GB of memory or less, and a device with 2 GB or less cannot render at all. For a large render, use a computer. It also needs WebGL 2 and a free account.
- 3D image. The 4K size is not offered on touch devices; they stop at Full HD.
- Split view. Not offered on a phone: switch between 2D and 3D instead.
- No scanning. FloorGen does not scan a room with your phone's camera or LiDAR. Trace a photo or PDF of a plan instead; tracing is semi-automatic, and you accept the walls it proposes.
- Small screens. A phone is good for sketching, checking and showing a plan. For long drawing sessions and many small edits, a tablet or computer is easier, and a keyboard attached to a tablet gives it every shortcut.
Your plans on every device
Without an account, a plan is saved in the browser you made it in and stays on that device. Sign in on your phone and your computer, and your projects move between them. A free account is also what exports need, for a PDF, PNG, DXF or IFC. See floor plan creator with no sign-up for what works without one.
