The new app feature relies on photos you’ve taken to let you virtually position multiple items of furniture in rooms around your home.<\/p>\n

The feature is called Room Decorator.<\/p>\n

It builds upon Amazon’s 2017 AR View feature that lets you virtually put certain singular items in a room.<\/p>\n

Room Decorator is said to provide higher quality images as well as having the advantage of seeing how multiple prospective purchases would look together.<\/p>\n

If you have the Amazon mobile app on your iPhone make sure you update it to get Room Decorator.<\/p>\n
