### 4/5 — Great app

*2016-06-02, version 1.4.0*

Works great! It's a bit hard to use but it gets the job done

### 1/5 — A piece of crap

*2016-04-13*

Ive been searching for 3d modeling apps, and this does absolutely nothing. Do not download. You cannot edit these random objects they give to you, all you can do is look at them. Dont waste your time.😒

### 1/5 — What the heck??

*2015-09-16*

What's the whole point of just LOOKING AT THESE RANDOM IMAGES,,,, YOU CANT EVEN EDIT AMYTHING!!! DO NOT GET!!!! All u get to do is ZOOM IN and ZOOM OUT and NOTHING ELSE!! You call this a modeling app??? So professional 😒😒😒 do not buy

### 5/5 — Must Get

*2015-07-12*

Wow I never knew this existed and I wish I did earlier :D 10/10

### 1/5 — Crap

*2015-07-05*

I was looking for 3d sculpting apps and his came I thought I could edit on this but I can't all I can do is look at a gun a turtle a car and some random thing!!!! DO NOT GET THIS IT IS CRAP!!!!!

### 1/5 — This app is useless

*2015-04-24*

Ok first off you can edit crap on the app. Sure you can probably view your creations on the app by editing stuff with a computer application but if that's the case why use this app? It is ultimately useless. DONT waste your time.

### 1/5 — S.a.N.

*2013-12-03*

It good

### 5/5 — Thanks a lot! Very useful to demonstrate objects.

*2013-06-18*

I like it

### 2/5 — Needs more flexibility

*2013-04-23*

The ability for the app to natively read Sketchup format or other formats directly would make it a more useful general purpose 3D viewing app rather than having to run all things handed to us through a desktop first to translate the files in Shade to the shade format.

### 1/5 — What the heck?!?!?

*2013-03-18*

WASTE OF MY TIME!
