How do I scan a room and start using IKEA Kreativ?

To get started you'll need:

  • An iPhone with iOS 14.0 and above* or an Android with Android 9.0 and above**
  • The IKEA app

If you're not sure about your iPhone's software version, go to Settings > General > About and take note of your Software Version

If you're not sure about your Android software version, go to Settings > About phone > Android version.

For Android devices, IKEA Kreativ requires a ARCore Supported Device that has Google Play Services for AR installed on it. You can check if your device is supported on the following website: https://developers.google.com/ar/devices#google_play. If you find your device model on the website but still can't see the scanning feature, try updating Google Play Services for AR before taking another panoramic photo of your space.
