A Planner 5D alternative for planning your move, with no subscription
Updated
If you just need to check your furniture fits a new home, movinghouse.app is a simpler, cheaper alternative to Planner 5D: one plan with up to 25 items is free, and the Moving Pass is a one-off £10 (US$10, A$15) for 3 months that never renews. Planner 5D is the better tool for 3D design and decorating.
Why people look for a Planner 5D alternative when moving
Planner 5D is a capable 2D and 3D home design app. Its paid plans are subscriptions: Premium is $19.99 a month or $59.99 a year, and some reviewers complain about being charged after a trial. For a one-off job like a house move, a subscription is more than many people want.
