An absolutely superb and intuitive viewer ... Thank You.

Keep up the great work.

Up dates for the new ios11

Please provide the new
Update for the iOS11 , very important!!
We are not able to use anymore.

A great start!

Finally a good STL viewer! AutoDesk still can't write an Inventor viewer worth using, but I no longer care, because Meshlab lets us browse all the .stl files of our model library reliably.

The only 2 things I wish this app could do are:
1. allow us to turn off perspective
2. set the default view mode, so we wouldn't have to switch it to flat every time we open a file. Lots of distortion in the other modes

Thanks so much for writing this,
Please please update it to work with iOS11!

Useless

No instructions on uploading models

Does the job, with some (frustrating) limitations for OBJs

Pretty much gives you exactly what it says on the label (with no hidden costs), and the controls are indeed intuitive for touchscreen users. I would've liked more numerical/metered control options as well, like a zoom bar or entering numbers to choose exactly where I want to move or zoom.

Now, for the frustrating part of the review: MeshLab has issues displaying OBJ textures if your files aren't formatted *exactly* as the app expects, so things like double spaces in the MTL file or differences between capitalised and lowercase texture names can cause the whole model to show up untextured. It's frustrating because the OBJ can load and display with no issues on other systems, so when it comes to MeshLab, you need to go back and look inside the files for what the issues may be (this was particularly problematic when exporting OBJs from Blender).

I definitely want to give this app credit for what it does right, but I also feel that a 4-star rating doesn't properly express my frustration at the inflexible file reading of the app.

stupid and pointless

When you open the game, there are a few models to choose from. It wouldn't let me change or edit them in any way besides changing the light effect. There wasn't a color button a shape button, nothing! So I tried deleting all the models to see if i would then be able to create a new one. Nope. I couldn't even do anything because I didn't have any models to edit. There wasn't a plus button to make a new model. so that basically made the app useless! Look, I'm not an app inventor. And I'm sure it's harder than it may seem. But seriously! You can do better than this!

Dropbox support

I can't seem to be able to import a model from dropbox

Great!

Although you can't load files from cloud, you can still use iTunes to upload files. Works great! Probably need some documentations to explain that this is the only way to upload files now.

Viewing solidworks files

Using on new iPhone to view STL files that were created in solidworks. Works well. Easy to rotate and zoom.

Great app for importing models

Great😊
Please PLEASE allow user to set a chroma key background (ie green) or export out an image as a PNG. That would be amazing in a mobile workflow 😎😎😎

Nice

Very easy to use, intuitive controls, perfect for viewing

WOW, so cool I said it backwards…WOW!!

My first experience with mesh lab and I like it. Does what it says it will without hidden cost :)-. Thanks so much :)-

Waste of time

App was a complete waste of my time and trying to find files to put on to your app aaaarrrrr not happy, better apps then this at App Store

Very reliable app, but could use an update

This works very consistently, and I use it often to review my own 3D models before uploading them to shapeways. The graphics would look quite a deal better if they were upgraded to iOS 9, however...

Good Model Viewer

More views would be a good addition, such as a wireframe view and front face wireframe.

A superior product that works as advertised and beyond initial expectations.

Stanford's PLY format presents faithfully and iTunes File Sharing utility provides essential security for both device and file management. Responsiveness was beyond initial expectations for some particularly complex models. The intuitive gestures are well thought out. I would like to see an hybrid interface that allowed present interactive manipulation as well as mini-animation sequences. I agree with others' suggestions to preserve visual modes between sessions for view, scale, and lighting. The product fills an immediate need with the aesthetic efficiency Apple has always demonstrated. Well done.

iOS7/8ify it!!!

This is the best app for viewing STL files, but it lacks the user friendly touch interface as seen in iOS 7/8 and Windows 8/8.1

Useless

Can not load files. Ummmm, duh.
