It keeps glitching up. It doesn’t do what you want it to, like simply combine two objects. It’s ridiculous ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2019-08-15* I was working so hard on a model an then the game crashed and deleted my project, I saved it but it won’t let me access it!!😭😭 ### 3/5 — Need better instructions *2019-01-25, version 2.1.1* The app gives almost no information on how to connect your printer. Sure there’s a website showing you how, it tells you that there is a set up printer bar, but it is not there. Please tell me how to set up printer or give better instructions. ### 1/5 — Needs updating *2018-11-09* Some features don’t work needs update ### 1/5 — Worst App Ever *2018-11-03, version 2.0.0* First of all I can’t even connect to my da Vinci Mini. It says it is starting to print but when I look over it is sitting not printing. Aside from that the interface could be better like the PC software. To sum up the app is BAD. ### 1/5 — Continuous crashing *2018-02-11, version 1.2.0* Crashes every time I try to subtract with makes the app unusable for me ### 1/5 — Crappy *2018-01-03, version 1.2.0* Keeps crashing when trying to combine shapes and when subtracting. When you save and open app again grouped objects become ungrouped. Waste of time. **Developer response:** Sorry about the inconvenience it causes you. We will improve our boolean algorithm on next release (2.0.0.) Moreover, there are more new functions. We hope to have you to try the new version. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2017-10-20, version 1.1.1* Sure you can make shapes but every time you try to subtract one from another it will crash ### 1/5 — Crashes on startup still. *2017-06-17, version 1.01* I'll change my rating when app works. ### 1/5 — Total CRAP ! *2017-06-09, version 1.01* Will not open. Crashes every time ! The whole company is crap ! They just updated and said in the version notes that they fixed the crashing upon starting. WRONG !!! Still crap and still crashes ! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes constantly *2022-03-18, version 2.1.2* Don't know how I like it, because it won't stay running long enough to do anything. iPad Pro 12.9" ### 1/5 — Just terrible *2022-01-11* Just terrible. The pictures are fakes. ### 1/5 — No good *2021-06-03, version 2.1.2* I couldn’t get anywhere with it because every time I tried to login/sign up it wanted to send me something to my email which I never got even after several times it would not work it would only try to get me to reset my password which I did not need to do.😒 I do not like how this part is set up at all I didn’t even get to use the app🤦🏼‍♂️ ### 1/5 — Fail *2021-03-11, version 2.1.2* I have no interest in creating a new account or linking to a previously owned account with another company simply to use an app. That is a blatant violation of my privacy. ### 1/5 — Couldn’t even start. *2020-09-26, version 2.1.2* When I tried to register I put my gmail and it didn’t send an thing to my gmail. So I tried it again and it still didn’t work. ### 1/5 — >:( *2020-08-03* The textures keep resetting and I hate it. ### 1/5 — Help guys *2020-07-09* Can’t import files into the app fully up dated iPad and soft wear what’s up guys ### 1/5 — Why you never download this *2019-12-20, version 2.1.2* This only lets me add abject sand it doesn’t let me scale them or paint them on star review ### 1/5 — Impossible to sign in *2019-11-09* Cannot sign in to my XYZ account, even though I am using the same email address and password on other XYZ apps, both on iPad and my Mac. Even tried changing passwords several times but it still says incorrect email/password. Finally tried creating a new account and it still would not let me sign in. Seriously frustrating. ### 1/5 — Can’t connect *2019-11-08, version 2.1.1* You need to sign in using an XYZ account. All I get is an error when I try — even though my profile page pops up just fine. Too buggy. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2020-05-27, version 2.1.2* It’s a great app I don’t know why other people don’t like it I think sometimes it crashes yeah it’s a good app ### 4/5 — Good but pls fix the zoom *2021-12-09* When i tried to zoom it, it was too IMPOSSIBLE but very good! ### 4/5 — Good product *2020-03-24* This is a good product and the the company have very good communication with help :) ### 4/5 — Seriously good *2019-04-02* I have tried a great many 3D apps over the years, both hobbyist and professional. I can confidently declare that this app is seriously good. It’s great for beginners to learn the basics but also ideal for quickly knocking up ideas in 3D. One of the best things about this app is there are no really annoying quirks that drive you up the wall - apart from the difficulty in selecting lines everything works well. However, it lacks some very basic features. Flat-on views without perspective are essential for accurate alignment and transparent or wireframe modes would also help with this. The snap function doesn’t work on initial placement of new objects, lines and shapes and it’s not possible to edit shapes after creation. These are VERY BAD OMMISIONS that prevent it being a descent professional app instead of a kids toy. Furthermore, there are advanced functions in the tutorials that are missing from the IOS app so what’s going on there? ### 4/5 — Is awesome, but I can’t import my files. *2018-11-16, version 2.0.0* Awesome app but I can’t import my .stl/.zip files from the files app. The import screen Is just blank with no available files. XYZprinting please solve this! ### 4/5 — Great, but buggy *2018-03-28, version 1.2.1* I came across this app, and so far I enjoy it. My husband bought me a davinci mini 3D printer, and so far I found this app far more user friendly in constructing objects and characters than the desktop version. With this app I have made 30 characters, and yes there are some glitches and limitations. The most common one that I have encountered is the Boolean function. Often than not when I try to subtract, or combine shapes together the program would freeze then crash. I highly recommend saving the project before using this function. When it comes to printing your object or seeing how big it is I noticed there is no option to change the settings from mm to inches function. When there is an update for this app the bugs will be fixed and perhaps add more features to building the characters and creations. **Developer response:** Thanks for your comments. 1. We will improve boolean function on next release. (2.0.0) 2. To change the setting from mm to inches: we will discuss about how to apply this function to our interface. 3. We are thrilled to inform you, yes, we do have more features to build creations on next release. We hope you will be as happy as we do. ### 4/5 — Why? *2017-11-26, version 1.1.1* Ok the crashing was fixed at least for me but why can't we save our models without removing the textures we put on it? I made a model for my favorite animator and it was basically all gone after saving it! **Developer response:** We are sorry to inform you that it is a known issue and we have fixed this bug. Please wait for our next release (2.0.0) for the fix. Please note that only .amf, .obj and .3mf file formats are able to keep texture information. ### 3/5 — The zoom *2020-06-13* Please, for the love of god, fix the zoom ### 3/5 — Not bad *2020-03-24* It has the basics but can’t let you make your own shapes by just drawing it out.can crash,overall not bad ### 3/5 — It’s a great start *2019-11-14, version 2.1.1* Great start for a free modeling software. I am unable to import anything. STLs opened in the desktop xyzMaker and saved as an AMF will import but will not open. Needs to be able to open STLs. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
