Ikea recently released their latest catalog, and with it comes a new feature that allows users to view how various items will look in their home without even having to drive to their local store.
The new feature pairs up the 2013-2014 catalog with a free app available for iOS and Android. It's a pretty nifty idea; shoppers place their catalog anywhere in a room, hold up their phone to that spot, and then browse through various items in order to view how they will look in that spot.
Shoppers can also use the app to browse through a digital copy of the full Ikea catalog.
Both the app and catalog are officially available now , and you can watch a short video sample of the app in action below.
