### 1/5 — I don’t know what it’s for

*2019-01-08, version 4.3*

How do you make a new building? It glitches and takes forever to load. Nothing works. Don’t get it

I downloaded this app to view my files but it just does not open files. Deleted three minutes later

### 1/5 — :(

*2011-10-25*

Doesn't  not work

### 1/5 — .

*2011-06-27*

This package ONLY works with it's own proprietary format produced in a package (composer) which you must purchase separately for $100.  The composer package does not run on the iPhone :( 

Overall:  worthless

### 5/5 — Works great with sim lab composer.

*2020-04-25*

Read all these reviews of people thinking this is just some free to use software and don’t understand that it requires sim lab composer.  Works great and as intended otherwise.

### 5/5 — This latest version is great...

*2011-08-31, version 2.0*

The ability to get models into this app by dropbox and email really impoves it. In the next release of SimLab there will be the ability to get animations to run on the iPad also; this will be really useful and unique.

I would encourage every one interested in sharing 3D content to take a look at SimLab. It enables animation, rendering and 3D PDF creation from lots of CAD formats and it is a very reasonable cost (actually its as cheap as chips!)

Keep up the good work Simlab.

The only thing that I can think of that might be an improvment is the inclusion of a folder system for when i get loads of models on it.

### 3/5 — Downloaded model but not available

*2012-02-11*

Looks promising but all that's viewable is the demo models. I downloaded Dropbox Sketchup model several times - asked to replace file so I know it's there but they don't show in model list. I found the user interface very different from standards and not real easy to understand exactly what is meant by various controls.
