Design, edit and prepare 3D models for printing right on your phone or tablet, or tell an AI agent what you need and watch it build the model for you. 3D Model Print Simple Edit is a fast 3D editor made for touchscreens, makers and 3D printing fans. No desktop CAD and no steep learning curve: shape your idea, check it for printing and send it to your slicer. SIMPLE OR ADVANCED Start in Simple mode with the essential tools, or switch to Advanced for every tool, including the Print panel. Your models and files are the same in both. READY TO PRINT • The Print panel checks for holes, thin walls, overhangs, floating parts and whether the model fits your printer's bed, and its results match a real slicer • Weight and print time estimate, with a material for each object • Best orientation lays the part flat in one tap • Fix the model: Repair (watertight), Hollow, Cut flat or split and Symmetrize, each with a preview • Printer presets and a real-size grid in mm, cm or inches LET AI BUILD IT — MCP Connect Claude or any AI agent that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Copy the setup prompt from the app, paste it into your agent and describe what you need: "a phone stand" or "a box with a lid". The agent creates and edits real objects in your scene while you watch it work, and an agent on your computer can also work with the app on your phone or tablet over your Wi-Fi network. Then refine, sculpt and paint the result by hand. Go from one sentence to a print-ready model in minutes. SCULPTING Push, pull, inflate, smooth and pinch surfaces with intuitive brushes. Print brushes (Layer, Scrape, Fill, Clay, Crease) and Protect base keep the part printable. CAD-STYLE EDITING • CSG: union, subtract and intersect solids to cut holes and join parts • Walls: push and pull faces by an exact distance • Points: move vertices with soft selection and lasso • Round edges; twist, bend, taper and mirror parts • Draw your own shapes and turn them into 3D objects • 3D text in your own fonts, in all 15 app languages, Arabic and Hindi included • Screws, nuts, print-in-place hinges and gears from a parametric catalogue COLOURS FOR MULTICOLOUR PRINTING Paint areas, walls and whole objects. The colour picker shows the colours already in your project, and "Whole colour" changes a colour everywhere in one step. 3MF files keep each colour in its own filament slot. YOUR FILES • Import STL, 3MF, OBJ with MTL and textures, glTF/GLB, SVG and .zip, several files at once • Export a 3MF for your slicer with build plates, or STL, OBJ and glTF, also one file per object • Big models save, open and import in the background, with progress and Cancel • Autosave reopens your project, and Undo and Redo name every step BUILT FOR TOUCH • Normal or Large interface size, light or dark theme • 15 languages, including Arabic (right to left), Hindi, Chinese, Japanese and Korean • Built-in help with short videos for every tool • Works great on phones and tablets WHO IS IT FOR? • 3D printing hobbyists who want to modify models on the go • Makers who need a custom part, bracket or replacement quickly • Beginners who want to create without complicated CAD software • Anyone curious to see how AI can design real, printable objects Download 3D Model Print Simple Edit and turn your ideas, or your prompts, into real objects.

Mixos is a 3D creative suite that runs on your iPhone and iPad. Five apps, one account: scan something real, sculpt a form, texture it, build it into a scene, and turn a flat mark into a 3D logo. SCAN — capture something real • Stand an object on a plain surface and walk around it, and your phone builds a textured 3D model — all on the device, nothing uploaded • Or scan a whole room, a wall or a car as you walk through it • Turn a finished scan over in 3D before you send it anywhere • Open it in Studio to build with, or in Paint to texture • Needs a device with a LiDAR sensor PAINT — texture your models • Paint straight onto the 3D model with your finger or Apple Pencil, or work on the flat UV map • Every stroke lands in a real PBR layer stack — base colour, roughness, metallic, normal and height — so what you paint is what a render engine sees • Layers with masks, blend modes and per-layer opacity • Height-aware material blending, so rust settles into crevices the way it should • A library of ready-made materials and brush tips MOLD — sculpt the form • Push, pull and smooth geometry with a full sculpting brush set • Symmetry, masking and remeshing • Send a finished sculpt straight into Paint to texture it STUDIO — build the scene • A real scene graph: parent objects, transform them, arrange a shot • Polygon modelling on the mesh itself — extrude, inset, bevel, loop cut, bridge and more • Keyframe animation on a timeline • Light and shade the whole scene, not one object at a time LOGO — a flat mark, in 3D • Open a ready-made mark and give it real depth, bevelled edges and materials • Every colour becomes its own layer, so the mark comes apart in space • Describe a mark instead, or bring your own artwork — both use AI credits from your plan SEE IT IN YOUR ROOM Put a model on the table in front of you in AR, in Apple's own viewer. Walk around it, and pinch to set the size. Free on every plan. BRING YOUR OWN MODELS Import .glb, .gltf, .fbx, .obj, .ply, .stl, .dae and .3mf and start working on them straight away. MAKE MATERIALS WITH AI Describe what you want — rusted steel, glazed ceramic, worn leather — and get a tiling PBR material, texture or mask you can paint with. TAKE YOUR WORK OUT Export a finished texture set, material or model and save it straight to Files, or send it on with the share sheet. (Pro and Max.) YOUR WORK GOES WITH YOU Projects sync to your Mixos account automatically. Start something on the train, open it on your desktop, keep going.
