Great program!

I have really enjoyed this program. The models of the various polyhedra are really sharply implemented and almost feel 'real'. I don't know if it's a possibility, but it would be absolutely amazing if the complete set of Johnson solids was added. I would even pay for an upgrade. Thanks for a great app.

Best 3D App!

The 3D graphics seem to be real. They pop right out of the screen! The perfect way to see these shapes.

Lots of fun!

My kids have a blast exploring the interesting 3D shapes.

Cool effects!

This latest version is made for iOS 7 and looks pretty spiffy. The shapes even rotate when your phone rotates... amazing attention to detail! Kudos to this feat of iOS engineering.

Great teaching tool

I also think this a great app for teaching Geometry but if it had the use of a cone, then I would be top of the line!!

I love it

Is fun and very educational. Very well designed app as well. It would be amazing if we could select our own colors.

Good but...

This app is excellent to use as a supplement to teaching surface area and volume. However, it is MISSING the cylinder!!! Get this on there and I will give 5 stars.

Not enough basic solids

Not what I expected. Seemed limited in some of the basic ones.

A really useful tool

I teach 7th grade math, and one of the concepts that students really struggle with at that age is trying to picture what a prism looks like when it is unfolded. I like how this app allows you to rotate the shapes so you can see them in different orientations and also how you can pause and reverse the folding and unfolding.

The only change I'd like to see is the ability to change the dimensions of the rectangular prism. My students have to be able to construct nets with dimensions other than 1x1x1. Having this change would definitely make this a 5 star app!

Missing core shapes

Was hoping to use this with my seven year old and was disappointed to see that it was missing so many of the solids he needs to learn about. Where is the pyramid, cylinder, rectangular prism, and triangular prism?
