Not sure if i’m doing something wrong but the app is constantly crashing. I love the website and the company but i cant use the app.

3D model search is amazing!

Best app to search and view free 3D models!

great for finding new print ideas!

I love scrolling through the models and saving some for later. keeps my printer always running!

Has potential

Still needs some work but has potential. At the moment cannot like or add to collections.

Scrollable version of the latest models, and you can follow your favorite creators for

Notifications for favorite creators is great!

Poor execution

Great concept, quite a few defects and missing features…

- Not everything ends up on screen on my iPhone 12 Pro Max (search clear button for example)
- I can like models… but I have no way to see what I liked on mobile? Hopefully a future feature?
- There’s no way to zoom in on pictures?
- Sometimes the entire news feed is just one duplicated post over and over again
- Depending on how large the profile is, you’ll be unable to scroll through all their models

sesloan, Thank you for trying Thangs! We have made several improvements to the app since 1.1 - including being able to see your like models, and better scrolling/performance. You can now also save models in the "..." menu - give it a try, and let us know what you think!

Good

I had no problem with speeds in searching and calling up pages.
Nice to check out latest uploads from the comfort of the lounge chair.

Poor App

How can they get such a simple app so wrong! The navigation is terrible, there’s no way to save items into a collection. It’s just a search tool with a poor UX. Terrible execution of something that should be so simple!

App crashed multiple times

App is beautiful, but I can’t use it, crashes within a minute or two of use.
