If you’re torn between getting a live tree or using your fake tree again then you’ll want to download John Lewis’ new “Virtual Christmas Tree” app that will help you decide on how big of a tree to get for your home!

The app is essentially an augmented reality feature that lets you select one of the many Christmas trees John Lewis sells and try to post it up in your home virtually. Think of it like the IKEA app where you can see if a piece of furniture will actually fit in your room.

In order to try the new Virtual Christmas Tree, all you need to do is:

    1. Open the John Lewis and Partners app (you can download it here if you haven’t already)
    2. Search or browse for Christmas Trees in the app and look for the ‘view in room’ label for trees that you can view virtually
    3. Tap ‘get Started’, hold the phone towards the floor and move slowly from side to side to scan the room.
    4. When a square appears tap it to load the Christmas Tree onto the screen.
    5. Use one finger to move the product around the screen and two fingers to rotate the product for a full 360° view. See how the Christmas tree looks in your home!
