### 3/5 — Please add a one time purchase option!

*2026-08-22, version 1.11.1*

Subscriptions suuuuck for art programs! I would love to use this as a hobbyist looking to get into indie game dev, but I can’t justify a recurring subscription for something I would effectively be using only sometimes. If someone makes money from their art I’m sure they can justify the expense but it is unfortunate for the rest of us.

### 4/5 — Too much usage of battery

*2026-08-20, version 1.11.1*

I had a over 50 percent of battery and when I used the app, after an hour my iPad ran out of battery. Please make the app less battery munching.

### 3/5 — Peakness, but…

*2026-08-19, version 1.11.1*

I love this sooo much, It’s so easy for me to model stuff but I wish you didn’t need to pay just to export. Otherwise i’d have soo many models that can be coloured and turned into avatars for VRchat so I could see my characters come to life!! But no.. and I don’t wanna pay since my creativity comes and goes very randomly and i’m not making my mom pay for like ever until I decide to make a model like 5 months after when I first ask my mom to pay

### 4/5 — ABsOLUTELY amazing!😤😤😤

*2026-08-16, version 1.11.1*

Yall cooked with this app
It doenst fry my phone like it was ina. Deep fryer
Things don’t glitch out like Gmod
Nothing like that
But I do ask… can you add bloom? I also would ask if you could add a glas meterial you could see through

### 4/5 — Blendering is great

*2026-08-16, version 1.11.1*

Ita very cool because its easy to use and on mobile but I would like some more features from the PC version if that’s possible like Layout mode or Object mode. Very good app!

### 3/5 — Good potential but…

*2026-08-14, version 1.11.1*

This App had the potential to be the Procreate of 3D, but the monetization model just doesn’t cut it. Other apps are doing well with a one time purchase and in app add on, so it is possible.
I use drawing and 3D modelling app occasionally, but nothing that can justify a monthly expense.

### 4/5 — Best game ever but one thing

*2026-08-09, version 1.11.1*

Like this game is extremely fun and good but there is one problem can you please make alot more stuff free cause the stuff I really want cost money and i doubt my mom would buy the premium pass like the ads are fine but all i want is to have way more stuff free

### 2/5 — Buggy!

*2026-08-09, version 1.11.1*

Too many issues not stable

### 3/5 — I really need animation

*2026-08-07, version 1.11.1*

I really like this app alot, but for me i feel like there should definitely be an animation feature for my models. Other than that i like the app alot.

### 4/5 — So fun to use!

*2026-08-05, version 1.11.0*

It’s such an easy software to learn and It’s so simple and fun! Could use a version for windows and Linux, that would be super cool.

### 3/5 — Not working but its alright

*2026-08-03, version 1.11.0*

I was trying it out and i cant really work it out, its tools are useful but i wish i can work on different projects instead of having one canvas. I like it but its hard to use and i dont recommend this if you are a beginner.

### 4/5 — respond to this please

*2026-08-02, version 1.11.0*

its a lovely app dont get me wrong but why is the simple task of exporting and importing behind premium? i can understand ad free or for premade
models but exporting and importing models is a necessity task for 3D modeling. I want to use this app for making models for 3D printing but i dont want to have to spend more money ontop of the printer AND filament on a premium subscription for a BASIC 3D modelling need

respectfully make exporting and importing free please and thank you

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-08-02, version 1.11.0*

Easy app to use to 3d model and learn how to 3d model before moving to a big model app like blender

### 4/5 — Good

*2026-07-31, version 1.11.0*

Good but kinda hard to use

### 4/5 — Really good

*2026-07-31, version 1.11.0*

I literally just bought it but it’s really cool I suggest it

### 4/5 — Super !

*2026-07-31*

Pas évident de trouver une appli ou un logiciel de 3D réellement accessible, avec juste ce qu’il faut d’outils pour se familiariser avec tous les concepts de la modélisation. Et pourtant cette appli est vraiment très bien faite, car en plus d’être intuitive de base, on a droit à un tuto vidéo hyper clair pour chacune des actions possibles ! 
Juste une chose mais peut-etre que je n’ai pas trouvé : je ne parviens pas à modéliser en symétrie. Il y a bien l’outil miroir qui permet de dupliquer un objet en symétrie mais si l’objet dupliqué est modifié, l’original ne l’est pas…
Et sinon évidemment la formule par abonnement, j’ai un peu de mal quand même. Je préférerais payer l’appli avec toutes ses fonctionnalités, mais ce n’est pas le modèle économique en vogue donc…
En tout cas bravo et merci pour cette belle découverte.

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour !
Malheureusement, il n'y a pas de miroir interactif dans l'application. Cependant, nous transmettrons cette idée à notre équipe de développement.

### 1/5 — Why didn't you tell the rules? Now I'm struggling with my ideas

*2026-08-25, version 1.11.1*

You did not tell me the rules, and you keep saying this weird clone limit capacity plus when I tried reading last time and reviewing it just removed it, you have some clone issues plus why do you need to pay 49 per month per year? Just to buy a single premium object? To extreme to pay 49 for all VIP objects? And I cannot find the subscribe link since this is so buggy I contributed this app by removing some objects and restarting it and it's still the same now I cannot finish my solar system sculpt and when I return to one of my model files my spheres were flattened like a pancake and everything was glitching  I strongly recommend you not using this app it's trash instead of this weird nonsense I'd like you to use Sculpt+ and if you like you can go to Wenext. i'm taking all my four stars back.

### 1/5 — Why I dislike it

*2026-08-07, version 1.11.1*

I am younger and I was younger when I got this app and it made my iPad die it within like five or 10 Minutes

### 1/5 — F this app

*2026-08-03, version 1.11.0*

Bro I couldn’t find the shapes. I’ll give it one star only

### 1/5 — Naja

*2026-08-01*

Also ich wollte eine kleine Figur machen als einen Prototypen für eine Idee. Doch schon bei der ersten Sache, hat sich leider nichts bewegt. Ich hätte mehr erwartet bei der setzend Bewertung.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback!
Bitte senden Sie uns eine E-Mail an hello@3dmodelingapp.info und beschreiben Sie die Probleme, auf die Sie gestoßen sind, möglichst detailliert. Idealerweise fügen Sie ein Video oder Screenshots sowie Informationen zu Ihrem Gerät bei.

### 1/5 — Abzocke

*2026-07-24, version 1.11.0*

Es ist eine riesige abzocke, man muss 35,99 € zahlen, damit man andere Sachen benutzen kann😡😡😡😡😡

### 1/5 — No vale la pena

*2026-07-15, version 1.11.0*

Interfaz anticuada, y con problemas para importar archivos. Los 3MF no los detecta a la hora de importar, y para importar STL te pide suscribirte. No permite simplemente visualizar vuestros 3MF o STL sin suscripción.

Don’t bother, free functionality is too limited, everything requires a subscription, and the interface is dated.

### 1/5 — Importing files does not work

*2026-07-09, version 1.11.0*

I have subscribed and I still can’t import 
Every time I try to import it opens the app and does not import the files
I tried .stl and 3mf both don’t import

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-09, version 1.11.0*

Terrible worst game ever

### 1/5 — Too money-hungry

*2026-07-08, version 1.11.0*

Basically every feature requires money, you can’t upload anything without paying, converting models to things other than OBJ requires payment, and altogether, if you want something that doesn’t require paying, pick something else.

### 1/5 — Errors Saving

*2026-06-30, version 1.11.0*

When painting via texture paint, it looks normal. But when saving and reopening, one things paint is all over another which caused me to delete over an hour of my work.

### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS!!!

*2026-08-25, version 1.11.1*

I love this app it is soooo easy and plus this helps me practice making a roblox game! I was trying to find an app but until this app is better than any other 3d apps! Anyways great graphics and great for practices.

### 5/5 — Hi

*2026-08-23, version 1.11.1*

It is a good app

### 5/5 — Amazing! but textures won't load correctly.

*2026-08-22, version 1.11.1*

I don't know if it's a glitch or I am doing it wrong but whenever I load a texture onto an imported model the texture would just go in the wrong places, making the model look like a mess

### 5/5 — Almost Perfect

*2026-08-19, version 1.11.1*

I love using this app, as a beginner it has been super helpful and the guides answer many questions I had.

I would love to see the UV editor be fully added and I think this app would be perfect. Still highly recommend for anyone looking for a mobile 3D modeling program.

### 5/5 — Mi opinión

*2026-08-16, version 1.11.1*

No he terminada pero me gusto como me dio tutorial porque con aotras apps no me daba

### 5/5 — LOVE LOVE

*2026-08-15, version 1.11.1*

I barley have anything to say because of how much I love it. It’s super easy with the tutorial, and I love it so much I couldn’t go to bed cause I was thinking of all the good things I could make with this app. I’ve had bad luck throughout the year, but I think finding this app might have just turned that around

### 5/5 — So good

*2026-08-09, version 1.11.1*

It is good super cool models I didn’t even have to pay you just tap across at the start and then you don’t need to pay for everything

### 5/5 — I love this so much you can like put a building I made a Tokyo building

*2026-08-09, version 1.11.1*

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

### 5/5 — do you like aphex twin

*2026-08-05, version 1.11.1*
