### 1/5 — Cricut design space access

*2024-02-04, version 2.6*

I pay for this monthly & I can’t access my account 👎👎👎

### 1/5 — so bad!

*2024-01-17, version 3.3*

couldnt figure out to use this and my original cricut app has stopped working i now have a expencive piece of kit i cant use. very dissapointed! should have left the old system alone. if it isnt broke dont fix it. now nothing works :(

### 1/5 — Waste of money & misleading

*2024-01-12, version 2.6*

I bought this in good faith as I knew I was getting a Cricut for Christmas, thinking it was the official app but it definitely isn’t. Despite requesting a refund I have received no response whatsoever. I am very displeased with my purchase.

### 1/5 — Re this design space

*2024-01-11*

I can’t get from the design to a “ make it option. The app not working

### 1/5 — No help

*2023-12-31*

Can’t make anything work why should I go pro if I can’t get anything to work

### 1/5 — FAKE APP

*2023-12-18*

Not the real app for cricut

### 1/5 — so complicated,

*2023-12-11*

Cant find the old designing space, so enoyed that I cant design my own things easily anymore.I also cant make CARDS!!! I have a cricut joy that I used to have an app for on another device but that App isnt working anymore either! Cricut needs to work on the app to make it easy to design, anyway isn't that the point?

### 1/5 — WILL NOT WORK WITH SAWGRASS 1000

*2023-07-05*

WILL NOT COMMIUNICATE WITH SAWGRASS 1000

### 1/5 — feed back

*2023-04-29*

Junk App. waste of time trying to figure out!!!!

### 1/5 — How much a month?

*2023-04-27*

Am I missing something here? 10 bucks a month and only a few crappy designs? No thanks. I can only see about 5 categories of design types. Each one has only about 10 or so. Maybe I’m missing something in the app?

### 1/5 — there is no way to design

*2023-04-13*

there is no canvas. i downloaded the new warp font and it will not allow me to pair my cricut maker 3 to my computer. I have many shirts to make tonight for tomorrw that are needed for my job and nothing works tonight.  I am not excited about the new 50$ design space i paid for with no way to use it. I called them today and got the same recording repeatedly over and again to call them after their  12:30 meeting.

### 1/5 — Don’t get at all

*2023-03-03*

Waste of time. Not very useful app. Temples are low quality and you must subscribe first in order to use the app. Prior to subscribing it says easy to cancel….. uh no it’s not…. Still haven’t figured out hot to cancel and you need to do it 24 hours prior to the day of the billing cycle other wise you get billed. BTW… you can get the free trial for 3 days. Then you get billed. AND! Looks like this company is over seas for those who live in the US.

Edit: You can cancel the subscription once you delete the app.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-01-16*

Tutorial won’t open. When you download a design it closes. It’s says “download to documents “ but does not say where to find them. It just crashes. Please fix or return my money!

### 1/5 — So hard to use.

*2025-09-06*

All I want to do is create little boards on paper and have the cricut cut it out of card stock with actual penmanship and it is soooooooo hard to figure this out.

### 1/5 — Trouble accessing canvas

*2025-08-04*

Did an update and now cannot get the design space to work

### 1/5 — CRICUIT JOY

*2025-03-06, version 4.1*

WHAT A CON , CANT USE THIS NEW SYSTEM  (DESIGN STUDIO) GOT A NEW CRICUT JOY THAT I CANT USE BECAUSE OF THE NEW UP DATE.  DESGIN SPACE WAS FINE WHY DID YOU TROUBLE IT REALLY DISAPPOINTED.

### 1/5 — This is NOT the app for Cricut!!! Design SPACE By CRICUT is what you need

*2024-12-15*

This is NOT THE RIGHT APP!! ❇️ Design SPACE ❇️ is what you need for your Cricut BY Cricut themselves!!!
🆘 These apps are leeches trying to trick you into thinking they are what you need and making you pay!! 📲Design Space📱 by CRICUT IS THE ❌ONLY❌ app/program that can RUN your Cricut!!! The ONLY app that your machine will recognize and use!!!
You CAN design FILES outside of Design Space and upload them into Design space but there are tons of free apps where you can do that!! For ex-Canva or Inkscape. There are also TONS  of free files everywhere. OR you can pay for Cricut Access and get access to pretty much EVERY file/font Cricut has.

OR you can get a membership somewhere like Creative Fabrica for $3.99 a month/$47-$55 dollars a year and OWN any file off the site - it’s yours FOREVER!! Vs Cricut Access where you ONLY have access to make the project using their files IF you still have or rejoin Cricut Access. Creative Fabrica also has files for lasers, embroidery machines and many other machines and craft  types!! I absolutely love it!! Cheapest price and LARGEST catalog of files!!! By a lot!!!

Anyways don’t waste your time and money on these bogus apps pretending to be design space!!!

### 1/5 — Change the whole app...

*2024-10-01, version 4.1*

They changed the whole app and now I can do anything on it. its very confusing.

### 1/5 — frustrated

*2024-09-14, version 4.1*

I have just downloaded DS onto my Mac as opposed to my iPad, as I thought it would have easier functionality or an easier, more user friendly way of finding things, but I cant even find where to login in.  I am not a dunce when it comes to computer software, but  I am about to cancel my subscription and give it away for good. I am certainly not getting my money's worth and am about to tear my hair out .

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2024-08-25*

This app doesn’t give me an option to cancel purchase.

### 1/5 — horrible

*2024-08-11, version 3.9*

useless app

### 1/5 — Sucks on I phone

*2024-07-09, version 2.6*

Can’t do anything with this app

### 1/5 — Not user friendly!!!

*2024-04-10*

I don’t even know how to save my work! It should be easier to use even save your work. We not computer experts
