First, you can load models (ply seems to work best) into iPad local storage from your desktop. Second, you can load and play with models that are an order of magnitude larger than ANY other similar app (e.g. 217MB vs 23MB). Third, models load faster, much faster, with a % counter so you know what’s happening. And fourth, the clip feature is at least as well implemented as any other similar app. The only problem, and it’s minor, is that if you pack an obj/mtl into a zip, and load into local storage, when the model is decompressed, the mtl will not be loaded along with the obj, so colors are lost. Texturing is apparently a paid feature, which is fair, and the docs announce this clearly. Even as a free app, my high rating still stands, nothing I’ve discovered comes close at any price.

I truly believe this app is the next big thing ( I beta tested Rhino,SketchUp and Revit when they where unknown). Had some glitches with my IPad mini but it works fine on my Iphone5 Their costumer service was excellent. Any designer out there should Try it you can clip, save views, and animate the clipping within the app of your OBJ file. I will give it a 5 star when I finally fix my IPad mini problem. Needs a better logo.
