Short answer. RoomSketcher is an established floor plan maker, used by estate agents, builders and homeowners for tidy 2D and 3D plans to print and share. It runs on Windows computers and on iPad and Android tablets; its own pages say the app is not available on phones. Its first AI conversion of a floor plan is free, and its live 3D walk is on the paid plans. Flatwalk is the newcomer, made for the phone, and it is about your own flat rather than the drawing: walk through it at eye level, furnish it with real shop pieces, add lights and see the sun for your address, free for one flat. Pick RoomSketcher for professional floor plans; pick Flatwalk to plan and walk your own flat on an Android phone.

What Flatwalk does that older planners skip
Lights
Add ceiling lights, lamps and LED strips and see the room lit as you walk through it.
Your flat in its city
Give the address and the street and buildings around you appear in 3D where the map has them, so you see what is outside each window.
Sun for your address
The light falls where it really falls, by date and hour.
One piece, in your own room
Through the live camera or in a photo of the room, stand a sofa on your own floor at its true size before you buy it.
Detail
Dozens of door and window types, and kitchens, wardrobes and bathrooms built piece by piece, with real floors, tiles and paints.
Made for a thumb
Tap a wall, a door or a sofa and the choices for that thing appear. It is a phone app first, not a computer program cut down.
Swipe for more. Every picture is the app itself.
One flat, free
Most people plan one home. For that, Flatwalk costs nothing: no trial clock, no credits and no card. Draw the plan or scan the rooms, measure, furnish, set the lights and the sun, and walk through it as often as you like. Each AI tool gives one free try: a flat from a photo of your floor plan, an AI photo of a room, a piece of furniture made from a shop link. A membership is for people who want more flats or more AI, and it bundles all of it in one price.
