Design, edit, and prepare 3D models for printing directly on your phone or tablet — or simply tell the AI agent what you need and watch it build the model for you. 3D Model Print Simple Edit is a fast 3D editor designed for touchscreens, makers, and 3D printing enthusiasts. No desktop CAD and no steep learning curve: shape your ideas and send them directly to your 3D printer. LET AI BUILD IT — MCP INTEGRATION Connect Claude, Gemini, or any AI agent that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Generate a key in the app, paste it into your AI agent, and describe what you need: “a chair,” “a phone stand,” or “a box with a lid.” The agent creates and edits real objects directly in your scene while you watch it work. Then refine, sculpt, and paint the result by hand. Go from a single sentence to a print-ready model in just a few minutes. SCULPTING Push, pull, inflate, and smooth surfaces with intuitive sculpting brushes. Turn simple shapes into organic forms in seconds. CSG BOOLEAN OPERATIONS Union, subtract, and intersect objects to cut holes, merge parts, and build complex mechanical shapes from simple blocks. POWERFUL MODIFIERS • Twist objects into spirals and decorative shapes • Round edges to create smooth, print-friendly corners • Flip and mirror parts with a single tap • Draw your own shapes and turn them into 3D objects FULL-COLOR PAINTING Paint your models and prepare them for multicolor 3D printing. 3MF EXPORT WITH PLATES Arrange objects on build plates and export them as 3MF files — ready to open in your slicer. BUILT FOR TOUCH • Hide side panels for a full-screen workspace • Rename and organize objects directly from the hierarchy • Built-in help with short videos for every tool • Works great on both 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 part quickly • Beginners who want to create without learning 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-world objects.

MapBake

Turn images into practical, game-ready PBR material starting points directly on iPhone and iPad. MapBake prepares a source image, makes it tileable, estimates a complete material set, previews the result in 3D, and exports the conventions your target engine expects. IMPORT AND PREPARE • Import from Photos, Files, Camera, Clipboard, or drag and drop on iPad • Crop, rotate, flip, correct perspective, and normalize uneven lighting • Keep the original source intact while you experiment MAKE IT SEAMLESS • Create a horizontally and vertically tileable texture offline • The tile is rebuilt from patches of your photo, joined along cuts that follow real detail, so joins stay invisible and nothing is mirrored • One control trades keeping your source's structure against mixing it more freely • Inspect any map at 1×1, 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 with zoom and pan GENERATE A COMPLETE PBR SET • Base Color, Height, tangent-space Normal, Roughness, Metallic, and Ambient Occlusion • Useful deterministic estimates designed to be adjusted—not false claims of recovering perfect physical properties from one photo • Fast working previews with full-resolution recomputation when you export PREVIEW THE MATERIAL • Physically based RealityKit preview on a plane, sphere, cube, or rounded cube • Neutral, soft, outdoor, overcast, warm, high-contrast, and dark studio lighting • A directional key light you can sweep and lower to rake across the surface, so relief in the height and normal maps actually reads • Inspect scale, tiling, reflections, normal response, roughness, and metallic behavior EXPORT FOR YOUR TOOLS • Unity Built-in, URP, HDRP, Unreal Engine, Godot, Blender, OpenGL, and DirectX profiles • Automatic normal Y conversion, roughness/smoothness conversion, and standard packed maps • PNG output at 256, 512, and 1024 in the free app • MapBake Pro is a one-time purchase that removes ads and adds 2K/4K export, custom RGBA packing, and saved custom presets No account is required. Source images and generated materials are processed on-device and stay local unless you explicitly export or share them.
