AR Nail Targeting
Point your iPhone at the wall, enter the frame size and hanger type, and Hangcraft places a persistent red AR target dot exactly where the nail must go. Plumb-snap aligns subsequent targets to the same vertical line automatically.

Hangcraft: Picture Hanging
Stop drilling extra holes. Hangcraft drops a glowing AR target exactly where the nail should go — shows you a scaled visual diagram of your whole layout — and maps every stud across the wall so you know when you're hitting solid wood.
Wall Diagram — New in 1.3
A live, scaled visual plan of your layout shown directly on the wall detail screen. Frame rectangles are drawn at their computed positions with red nail cross-marks and a dashed gold eye-line. Turn numbers into a picture you can reference while working.
Stud Spacing Reference — New in 1.3
Enter one stud position (from a stud finder) and pick your wall's on-centre spacing — 12, 16, or 24 inches. Hangcraft maps every stud across the full wall span and tells you whether any given nail position hits solid wood or falls in hollow drywall. When the nail misses, it recommends the Anchor Advisor tool for choosing the right hollow-wall hardware.
Anchor Advisor
Enter the frame material and wall type — drywall, plaster, concrete, or stud — and get a specific hardware recommendation: picture hook, self-drilling anchor, molly bolt, toggle bolt, or concrete screw. Weight is estimated from material density and glass weight (7.5 kg/m² for 3 mm float glass).
Above-Furniture Mode
A dedicated calculator for sofas, beds, consoles, dining tables, and dressers. Uses the interior-design standard of 6–8 inches clearance and returns the exact nail height from the floor. Supports both cm and inches.
27 Standard Frame Sizes
Pick from a built-in catalogue of common photo, poster, canvas, and square sizes — from 4×6 in to 27×40 in — instead of typing dimensions manually. Dimensions shown in both inches and centimetres.

What Hangcraft is not
Hangcraft is not a stud finder, not a level, and not a wall scanner. It projects a computed target onto the AR camera feed — you still need a tape measure and a stud finder for heavy frames. The anchor recommendations and stud positions are based on user-entered measurements and typical published specs; always verify with your own tools before drilling.
