Sweet Home 3D: Plan your housev7.5.11

Released October 23, 2025Major

iOS

This major update resulted in a strongly negative impact, driven by a severe iOS rating decline of 0.69 stars that dropped the average from 3.33 to 2.64. While the update resolved historical login failures and introduced useful design tools, these improvements were entirely overshadowed by critical technical instability. High-frequency rendering failures and frequent application crashes within minutes of opening have severely degraded the core user experience.

How it played out

Retrospective analysisAugust 7, 2026

The iOS rating declined by 0.69 stars, dropping from a pre-update average of 3.33 to a post-update average of 2.64. This downward trend is driven by frequent application crashes and severe rendering glitches, such as textures failing to load and interface freezes when placing walls. Overall momentum is weakening as technical instability overshadows the newly introduced design features.

Marlvel takeaways

  • Prioritize hotfixing the rendering engine to resolve the high-frequency texture loading failures and interface freezes during wall placement.
  • Investigate and resolve the critical stability issues causing the application to crash within minutes of opening or fail to launch entirely on iOS.
  • Maintain the resolved login flow while shifting engineering resources entirely to the critical rendering and crash bugs.
