Turn a photo into a 3D character that moves, all in the redesigned Tripo AI. Try new texture styles and find ideas from other creators.
Turn a photo or a few words into a 3D model you can restyle, animate, and export.
Snap a photo, pick one from your library, or describe what you want. Tripo AI builds the model, then lets you change its look, try motions on it, and export the model for your game or animation project, all from your phone.
Made for game developers, animators, and anyone who wants 3D models without learning 3D software.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Take a photo, choose an image, or type an idea.
2. Tripo AI generates your 3D model. You can leave and come back; it keeps working.
3. Change its textures or give it a motion.
4. Export it and bring it into your project.
FROM PHOTO TO 3D MODEL
Take a photo with your camera or choose an image from your library, and Tripo AI turns it into a 3D model. Spin it, zoom in, or tilt your phone to look around it. Switch lighting and display modes to check every detail. Want to change the photo first? Describe the edit, and Tripo AI updates the image before building the model.
JUST DESCRIBE IT
Prefer words? Type what you have in mind, like "a red toy car with four wheels", and Tripo AI builds the model directly from your text, with no image step in between. Not sure where to begin? Start from a template.
MAKE YOUR CHARACTERS MOVE
Pick a motion from the preset library and see your character move in 3D. Try a few and keep the one that fits.
CHANGE ITS LOOK
Your model is a starting point. Apply a preset texture style or upload a reference image to change its look without starting over. Split your model into parts, then select, hide, merge, or remove them. Rebuild the mesh with quads or triangles and set the face count you need.
GET INSPIRED BY OTHER CREATORS
See what other creators are making. Open any model to view it in 3D and find ideas for your own. Save the ones you like to your favorites.
EXPORT IT FOR YOUR PROJECT
Export your model for your game, animation, or 3D workflow. Supports GLB and FBX. Animated characters export with the motion you picked. Save the file to your phone or send it to another app. With a subscription, choose triangles or quads and set the face count before you generate.
WHAT YOU CAN MAKE
Want to see yourself in 3D? Turn a selfie into a character, give it a motion, and spin it around on your phone.
Building an indie game? Get props, creatures, or characters to start from instead of a blank scene.
Working on an animation? Turn a character idea into a 3D model and try different motions on it, right on your phone.
Have a drawing or a piece of concept art? Take a photo of it and see your idea as a 3D model you can turn and inspect from every angle.
Have a product idea? Test it in 3D before spending hours in modeling software.
Want to hold it in your hands? Make a custom 3D model for 3D printing, a unique gift, or home décor.
Stuck for ideas? Browse the community, find something you like, and make your own version from a photo or a prompt.

I don’t know why this only had a rating of 3 stars. I was tasked with making “action figures” of a coworker and this made it EASY. Use another AI app to make a simplistic image of your subject, then use Image-to-3D to generate a 3D model that can be exported into a file compatible with blender or a 3D printer. The price is steep but I made and exported 4 renderings with the free monthly credits so I feel like I got a very good introduction to the app before needing to pay. Worth trying for any maker.
Great app but they need to change the text to model feature back (stop trying to bleed out credits)

This App will generate really great models from pictures especially for hard surface objects. I have found it best to use the basic settings when trying to get a head sculpt from a photo. It gives you a very good head start on sculpting in Your CAD software. The free credits are nice as well. I honestly would have given this 5 stars but they recently changed the prompt for text to image/ model to try to burn more of your credits. You used to be able to enter a prompt then it would generate it. Now you have to choose a software like chat gpt or Gemini to generate an Image which now costs 10 credits then you have to use credits to generate the model. It’s obviously a blatant attempt to make you spend more money. You can still use Chat GPT or Gemini on your own to generate an image and then open this app and upload your pictures but what a pain and an unnecessary step when they had something amazing before that worked really well. Very disappointed in that. What I paid my first month for feels like a bait and switch at this point.
Developer Response
Received! Our original intention was for users to first determine whether to continue generating text based on the image when using the text generation model. However, your feedback has made us realize the shortcomings of this change. We plan to adjust it so that after generating an image, the integration cost of using that image to generate the model is reduced, making it consistent with the original effect of generating directly from text. Do you think this is acceptable?
No cross platform
Hello_Kubo
Let me start out first by saying if you’re going to use this program you’re better off subscribing via the website. DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT subscribe through the app no matter what. I had originally subscribed via the app, when I did I wasn’t prompted to creat a account or anything so I had assumed that all I had to do was log into the website version (which has way more features than the app which I found this out a little later) via my Apple account when I did it basically created a whole new account. So long story short there is absolutely no way for me to link my subscription and 3k credits I currently have to an account to use the website version of this program which again has WAY more features than the app, you can’t even make a account via the app. So don’t subscribe through the app if you’re planning to use both mobile and website. BTW I brought this issue up on the Reddit forum for this program and my post was deleted with no help from any staff members.
Good renders, but a frustrating billing experience
Buggywest
I wanted to use Tripo to generate 3D game assets for income. The renders themselves are great (on par with Meshy), but I had a really frustrating experience with the payment process. When I upgraded using Apple Pay, I didn’t realize at the time it automatically synced to a secondary email address instead of my active account.Customer support did respond to me, which I appreciate, but because they couldn't see the payment under my main email, they couldn't apply the upgrade. To get my $16 back, they told me I'd have to dispute the charge with my bank—something I really prefer not to do.Ultimately, it was just a messy situation with the emails. I never got to download my renders, lost my money, and ended up just moving on to other subscriptions. Just a heads-up to double-check which email your Apple Pay is linked to before upgrading so you don't end up in the same boat. I know it’s not their fault just happens I guess
