About this app

• Sculpting tools
Clay, flatten, smooth, mask and many other brushes will let you shape your creation.
You can also use the trim boolean cutting tool with lasso, rectangle and other shapes, for hardsurface purposes.

• Stroke customization
Falloff, alphas, tilings, pencil pressure and other stroke parameters can be customized.
You can save and load your tools preset as well.

• Painting tools
Vertex painting with color, roughness and metalness.
You can easily manage all your material presets as well.

• Layers
Record your sculpting and painting operations in separate layers for easier iteration during the creation process.
Both the sculpting and painting changes are recorded.

• Multiresolution sculpting
Go back and forth between multiple resolution of your mesh for a flexible workflow.

• Voxel remeshing
Remesh quickly your mesh to get a uniform level of detail.
It can be used to quickly sketch a rough shape at the beginning of the creation process.

• Dynamic topology
Refine locally your mesh under your brush to get an automatic level of detail.
You can even keep your layers, as they will be automatically updated!

• Decimate
Reduce the number of polygons by keeping as many details as possible.

• Face Group
Segment your mesh into subgroups with the face group tool.

• Automatic UV unwrap
The automatic UV unwrapper can use face groups to control the unwrapping process.

• Baking
You can transfer vertex data such as color, roughness, metalness and small scaled detail in to textures.
You can also do the opposite, transfering textures data into vertex data or layers.

• Primitive shape
Cylinder, torus, tube, lathe and other primitives can be used to quickly start new shapes from scratch.

• PBR rendering
Beautiful PBR rendering by default, with lighting and shadows.
You can always switch to matcap for a more standard shading for sculpting purposes.

• Post processing
Screen Space Reflection, Depth of Field, Ambient Occlusion, Tone mapping, etc

• Export and Import
Supported formats include glTF, OBJ, STL or PLY files.

• Interface
Easy-to-use interface, designed for mobile experience.
Customization is possible as well!

• Quad Remesher (separate in-app purchase only)
Remesh your object automatically with a quad dominant mesh that follows the mesh curvatures.
It supports guides, face groups and density painting.

Ratings and reviews

It seems like a decent sculpting program. However, just like it's competitor Sculpt+, it's paywalled, which makes it tough to decide which to go with. To the developers, I'd recommend giving free users the chance to do some more things, maybe after watching an ad. As a new digital sculpter, it's especially a pain not being able to import models. For beginner sculpters like me, it may be best to just stick to Blender on a PC while learning.

Really really good app. I really wish that it wasn't trying to open itself whenever I use a file explorer. In Samsung My Files, if I was to try and open a .kra (krita file) this app opens instead. I'll do some more research as it's likely something I've set up wrong, but this app seems to do that with a ton of file types it doesn't support. Thank you for putting so much work on getting keyboard shortcuts, mouse support, pen, etc. The extra inputs makes this app super dynamic.

This app allows you to create, edit and save 3D projects. It is easy to use and is not resource intensive. It is a comprehensive program. Updates are frequent and the developer is incredible. I use it on my Moto G7 with no problems. It's a powerful app. And it has no ads. Update: it's still incredible. Still gets tons of upsets and still a great value.
