Latest version not working

Crashes every time since update Fine on iPhone. I have emailed support but no answer as yet

Some fun projects so far

Iโ€™ve made some fun projects so far using this app along with my Cubiio 2. My favorite material so far is beechwood. Itโ€™s easy to cut and pretty cheap.

The feature that lets you take a picture to use as reference for placing vector drawings or text is very useful. Itโ€™s best with thin materials. It does not work well when the material has some thickness to it. You can get used to it, but it takes a lot of thought.

Something I would like to see is better support for manipulating objects across tasks. Projects are broken up across tasks, Iโ€™d like to combine tasks or break task up.

App doesnโ€™t work

When trying to connect to my Cubiio2, the app will join the Cubiio network, but then has no way whatsoever to update the network configuration to join the real wifi network. WPS is totally insecure, and my professional-grade router does NOT support WPS, so thatโ€™s also a non-starter.

Not very happy right now.

App Needs Lots of Work

This App at this stage is beta. It is very flakey and the user experience is very poor and inconsistent. Alignment is trial and error and the initial setup process bring numerous errors. Iโ€™d recommend only using the iPad at this point because the screen layout is very inconsistent on the phone with icons being cut off.

It is quite disappointing because the physical product looks really good quality but the app significantly lowers the tone of the overall customer experience.

Needs development.

Currently not fit for purpose. That being said the team have said they are dedicated to it's development. Will update the review as the app changes. Currently, the machine is good from a hardware standpoint, but all software control options are severely lacking.
