Ratings and reviews

The actual website is fantastic. Using this on a phone is IMPOSSIBLE. Way to complex unless you have a really advanced phone. The layout appears to be designed for tablet more than a phone. The buttons overlap each other and don't work. You can change the size of things. Importing exporting is very slow. My phone has 160GB, unlimited data, 5G reception with full bars. This app barely works

Really enjoy being able to design different objects an important objects and altering them to suit my preference, Wood however like to see a offline options or at least be able to still use the program and features when not being able to connect to Mobile data or Wi-Fi so that I can still work on projects and design even when not connected. Update: It seems like every file that I try to import is either too large or broken, If it's too large, I can skill it down on the program, But no still cant

It works... kinda? The app is mostly functional, but is not optimized/fully functional with touch screens. There doesn't appear to be any way to select/deselect multiple objects (done via holding down while clicking on a computer), which is mandatory for 3D modeling. It's somewhat possible to work around but very cumbersome. Hopefully they will be able to optimize this for touch screens in the future, all it would take is a few extra on-screen buttons.

Bug fixes and improved reliability.
