Ratings and reviews

Such a nice app, but has it's quirks. I use Onshape a lot. It is my go-to tool for 3D design. I even prefer the app over the website, most of the time. However, with recent updates, make the measuring tool useless. The measurement displays behind the menu at the bottom of the screen, where it cannot be seen. I guess I'll have to pull out the laptop just to see if this design works for me.

Even on a big tablet it doesn't add more icons to the top bar there's just a ton of wasted space that could be used for shortcuts. Using the measure tool cancels your sketch (very not cool). There's no way to "select other" on mobile. Needs a toggle for auto snapping to constraints because it makes some projects impossible on mobile when your point keeps snapping somewhere you don't want it to

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! No other CAD program comes close to the ease an accessibility of Onshape. I can work from multiple devices at the same time and can do full projects from my phone with ease. Instead of playing some random game on my phone, i can spend my 10min here or there through out the day working on a full CAD projects that are in no way less impressive then done from a fancy computer. It's absolutely amazing.
