With this update, we’re taking PLUS together to the next level: you can now import your G-code files directly into the cost calculator – including the preview image (if available). The update supports various slicer formats, including PrusaSlicer, OrcaSlicer, and Bambu Studio. You can also add images later to your already saved calculations. In addition to the new feature, this update includes several smaller improvements for PLUS users. Enjoy exploring the new update!

Spring is approaching, the days are getting longer – it’s time for another feature update of the 3D Printing Cost Calculator! Starting with this version, your calculations and profiles are automatically synchronized via iCloud across all your devices (iPhone, iPad, and Mac). This ensures you always have access to your latest data everywhere. In addition, all users can now enter extra costs – for example, for magnets or screws – to make their calculations even more accurate. PLUS users can look forward to a custom app icon, which is automatically applied the first time you launch the new version. Enjoy exploring the new update!

With this update, the 3D Printing Cost Calculator now supports iOS 26 and runs natively on Macs with Apple Silicon for the first time! The layout has been further simplified to put the cost calculator more in focus. The time selection is now displayed within the form, and most input fields can be cleared and refilled with a simple tap. PLUS users can also edit the titles of saved calculations directly in the list using a swipe gesture. Have fun trying it out – feedback is always very welcome!

PLUS is here! The paid package of additional features (optional one-time purchase, no subscription) lets you save calculations, use profiles, and gives you clarity about your profit. Use the save function to store calculations you've already performed and view them again at any time. With profiles, you can set standards for your parameters – such as your printer's operating costs or the purchase price of your filament – so you can select them in the calculator with a single tap. A new field in the calculator lets you set your desired profit, which will be factored into the price. And of course, I’m keeping my promise – the core functionality of the app remains unchanged and will continue to be available for free! This will remain the case in the future as well. Of course, I would still appreciate a small tip… ;)

A small error crept in with the last version, which will be fixed with this update.

With this version, the energy costs get enhanced with more input fields to calculate the operating costs of your 3D printer.

A new name for a new year: „krausgerechnet“ is now called „3D Printing Cost Calculator“. Happy New Year!

The English localization and new options to support us will be added with this version.

krausgerechnet ist kaum veröffentlicht, da gibt es schon einen kleinen „Day One Patch“, mit dem kleinere Fehler in der App gehoben wurden.
