How to Use Archir

This guide walks you through using Archir from download to delivering finished photos, so you know exactly what to expect at each step.

Written by Roman S.

1. Download the app

Archir is available for iPhone on the App Store. Download it and open it to get started.

2. Log in

Choose how you'd like to sign in: with Apple, Google, or email. If you sign in with email, you'll receive a one-time (OTP) code — enter it to verify and log in.

3. Set up your profile

Enter your name, then continue to the Welcome screen, where you'll get a quick overview of what Archir does.

4. Choose your plan

Before you get started, you'll see how Archir's subscription works and can choose the plan that fits you best.

5. Create your first project

On the home screen, you'll see all your projects. After your first login, create your first project by entering a name and, optionally, the property's address, then tap + button.

6. Open your project

You'll land on the project page with all the relevant information. From here, you're ready to start shooting.

7. Review the shooting guidelines

Before you shoot, Archir shows you guidelines on how to photograph the property correctly — what to do, what to avoid, and how to prepare each space.

8. Clean your lenses

You'll also see a reminder to clean your iPhone's camera lenses before shooting. Lenses often pick up smudges from pockets or bags, and a clean lens makes a real difference in photo quality.

9. Shoot the property

Once you're ready, start shooting. Keep an eye on the green alignment lines on screen — they help you keep each shot properly leveled, both horizontally and vertically.

When you tap the shutter button, hold the phone still for 3 seconds. This lets Archir capture a set of photos for that shot, which reduces noise and avoids blur from movement.

10. Confirm and send for enhancement

After shooting, you'll see the photos you captured. Review them, confirm, and send them off to Enhance.

Once sent, your project card turns purple and shows an "Enhancing" status while your photos are processed.

11. Get notified when it's ready

You'll receive a notification once your photos are done. Open it to see all your projects, and tap into the one you're looking for to view its details and enhanced photos.

12. Compare original vs. enhanced

Tap on any photo and swipe up to compare the original shot with the Archir-enhanced version.

13. Fine-tune the look

Use the Fine Tune option in the bottom-right corner of the photo view to adjust the feel of the image — from more HDR to a more Natural look — to match your preference.
