Not quite up there with the web browser version

I really love the browser version of Onshape and it has been the most accessible and versatile CAD software I have tried to date that is truly professional grade. There are however one or two little niggles with the iOS version that I have found make it a little harder to get the hang of.

When you sketch a shape in the browser version you get a text box along each edge for you to enter the required dimensions for the shape. In the iOS version you have to manually add dimensions to get the shape to the size you want. This one thing really slows down the whole process of working the iOS version and isn’t easy to get the hang of as the dimension tool is hidden in the sub menus. If you could add the “auto-dimension” feature this app would be fantastic. Whilst I solely use the iOS app on the iPad I can see why the developers have hidden the tools in submenus to make it iPhone friendly and I can live with that but the auto-dimension feature would be a great addition please.

Not for faint hearted

App very touchy at times especially using fingers, you will need a touch screen pen to be more accurate.

It’s also not a tool for beginners, after several hours use I still end up scratching my head at times.

I’ve no doubt some people can use this effectively, I’m one who can’t.

I’ve no problem using other cad dedicated programs this just seams to not suited for me. ( I’m used to 2d cnc programming)

Mid star rating as I have no doubt it works but for some it’s not the right program for a touch screen device.

Steep learning curve but rewarding results once mastered

Was using Shapr3D as thought was best CAD for designing 3D models but didn’t like the high price tag, tried Onshape and after a couple of days of head scratching was blown away with how good this CAD is, every bit as good if not better than Shapr3D once you mastered it. If you want to design models for 3D printing this is it, no brainier. Only criticism is the help files need improving as not in-depth enough for the app, the other app mention above handles it much better with simple to follow prompts and videos for each tool you select.
