Take advantage of quarantine time discovering useful free applications to learn how to model in 3D with your iPad

There are many iPad applications made for 3D Design out there. However, things get even more complicated when you realize that most 3D Design applications are targeted towards visualization or fun rather than 3D Printing. Fortunately, there are some of the best 3D Design apps for iPad that actually fit into a 3D Printing Workflow. Alright then, time to jump head-long into the world of mobile 3D Printing. Find out now some interesting applications to discover:

Sculptura: An app that hopes to satisfy all your virtual clay-morphing cravings. The simple set of tools available makes it most suitable for creating base meshes, which are then exported to desktop modeling software for more granular edits.

Shapr3D: Allows you to create concepts on the go, all of which can be exported to desktop software for more granular editing at any time. One of the most functional and reliable mobile apps out there for parametric modeling.

uMake: An application that takes advantage from the touch input to offer an easier approach to modeling. A nice bonus is the ability to view your 3D designs in augmented reality.
