Besoin d’assistance

Bonjour, je ne trouve pas comment contacter l’assistance pour l’application. J’aimerais savoir comment faire pour importer mon propre modèle dans l’application car il ne propose que les modèles de bases quand j’essaie.. merci de votre temps.

Complete Waste of Money

I initially believed it was working so badly as my IPad Pro is now 5 years old. I asked Apple for a refund then installed Nomad Sulpt, which though a little more expensive, is amazing, and bares no comparison to this which is glitchy and very amateur.

No Documentation…ANYWHERE

While the software seems responsive, for a complete noob it’s pretty useless without at least a little guidance. I have searched the Internet multiple times and asked on their Discord (without any response) about tutorials. NO tutorials apparently exist, just some fast videos showing people making things but not explaining the tools or how they are doing what they are doing. At least Nomad has a bunch of tutorials all over the internet.

Terrible

I downloaded this app after reading a positive review in an online article. My iPad is relatively new and still I can’t get this app to work as it constantly freezes and crashes. Very disappointing

Not compatible

This worked great on my last iPad but eventually my projects got to big and I needed a more advanced device. Bought an iPad Pro but this app can’t seem to run it properly. So it’s kind of useless now. To bad.
