Wax vs IrisFold

Make 3D props, characters and scenes on iPhone and iPad. Start with a shape, import a model, or open one of five editable examples. MODEL Edit vertices, edges and faces. Extrude faces, inset details, bevel edges and add loop cuts. Mirror, Subdivision Surface, Array and Smooth modifiers stay editable. SCULPT AND PAINT Push, pull and smooth a mesh with brushes, symmetry and masks. Paint colors onto the mesh, add image textures, and place reference images in your scene. Apple Pencil pressure can control brush size and strength. ANIMATE Keyframe position, rotation and scale. Adjust timing on the timeline and motion in the curve editor. Add cameras to frame your scene. KEEP YOUR PROJECT EDITABLE Save and share .waxproject files with the full scene, including materials, textures, modifiers and animation. Open them on another device to keep working. Older .wax projects still open, and importing a project creates a separate copy. Import OBJ and self-contained GLB or glTF models. GLB/glTF files must contain their own mesh data and textures; separate buffer and image files are not supported. Model import does not bring in animation. Use Wax project files to transfer an editable Wax scene. FREE TO USE Modeling, sculpting, painting, animation, modifiers, model import and unlimited projects are free. Export editable Wax projects, OBJ, STL, SDS and PNG images without buying Pro. WAX PRO • Combine shapes, cut holes and find intersections with booleans. • Rebuild a mesh for sculpting with voxel remesh. • Export animations and turntables as MP4 videos. • Export GLB files with materials and animation for use in other 3D apps, games and the web. • Export USDZ files to view your models in AR. Wax Pro is a one-time purchase with Family Sharing. No subscription. LEARN BY EDITING Open a robot, spacecraft, painted creature, speaker or animated example and change it yourself. A guided tour, gesture help, keyboard shortcuts and a left-handed layout are included. No account is required. Projects are stored on your device and are available in Files.

Design the iris-folding pattern you want to make, teach, or share. IrisFold turns supported user-owned outlines into a colored, numbered sequence and print-ready PDF and SVG files. • Start with a geometric aperture or import a supported polygonal SVG. • Adjust the seed, spiral, opening, strip width and color lanes. • Follow one strip at a time with a visible completion count. Return directly to an unfinished step. • Prepare Letter or A4 files with a calibration square and clear construction order. • Share a locally rendered Iris Reveal or an editable .irisfold project through the system share sheet. Made for original pattern creators, teachers and card designers—not a catalog of ready-made craft patterns. SVG import supports closed polygonal outlines; curves and unsupported SVG features are rejected with an explanation. Projects and artwork stay on device. No account, cloud service or remote AI is required. Use artwork you own or have permission to use. Always review the guide and check print calibration at 100% before cutting. Shape your next original pattern on iPhone or iPad.
