Walmart is a go-to destination for shoppers nationwide. The low prices and product selection simply can’t be beaten, so many of us turn to Walmart stores when we have a long list of household necessities, groceries, or even furniture to buy. And now, the retailer just announced that you can expect to see more of something specific when you’re shopping in your local store or online. Read on to find out what Walmart is doing to give customers more variety.
Walmart customers will soon be getting access to a new feature in the Walmart app, the company recently announced. You’ll be able to use an augmented reality (AR) feature to see what furniture looks like in your home ahead of purchasing. The “View in your space” tool will let you pick and choose from 300 different furniture and home décor pieces, and even use a nifty dimension tool to see if a couch or chair will fit in your space.
This isn’t the only feature that’s on the docket, however, as the retailer also hopes to roll out an AR feature for in-store use. Again using the Walmart app, you’ll be able to point your phone’s camera at store shelves and filter Walmart’s product assortment to suit your preferences.
The “View in your space” tool becomes available in July, and while you may be eager to try out the in-store AR feature, Walmart has yet to announce a formal launch date since stating that it’s being developed in a June 23 press release. And now, the retailer announced yet another thing shoppers can look forward to.
