Ive used various AR apps to see how products fit in physical spaces--like Ikea used to offer. I've also worked on VR projects for car interiors. With VR you really do get a sense of scale and space that you're still guessing at with AR on a phone. I really liked when people removed the VR headset they were surprised to be back in a small room.
Like you mentioned, Ive wanted to scan some spaces to remember them in the future. Last time I looked, those apps werent very easy to find or easy to use.
I used Polycam. It was very easy to use, but imperfect. But it got the job done very quickly.
It can generate a mesh, or convert the scan into a floor plan or idealized 3d model.
I was able to capture the mesh and save to my iPhone. I think I did a month subscription and that was more than enough time.
