## What is Pocket Slicer?

Pocket Slicer is a mobile 3D print estimation and preview tool.
It calculates print time, material usage, and pricing.
*Does not generate or export G-code files.

When a client sends you a 3D file, simply upload it to Pocket Slicer and get an instant overview of:
• Sliced model preview
• Estimated print time
• Material usage
• Custom base pricing

Perfect for quick quotes on the go, whether you're away from your workstation or responding to customers in real time.

KEY FEATURES

• Import common 3D file formats (STL, STEP, 3MF)
• Automatic slicing optimized for estimation
• Print time calculation
• Filament and material usage estimation

Multi-body STEP file support:
• Detects multiple bodies in a single STEP file
• Customize the color or material of each body
• Automatically calculates additional print time for multi-color prints (AMS-style systems)

Custom base pricing:
• Set your hourly rate
• Set your material cost per kg
• A smart formula calculates a price estimate based on your own pricing rules

*Not a replacement for advanced desktop slicers. It's a pocket-sized utility built for speed, clarity, and fast decision-making.

Free usage and in-app purchase:
• Pocket Slicer is free for small STL and STEP models
• A one-time in-app purchase unlocks larger models, 3MF file support, and all printer profiles
