MiniModeler

3D Modeling, Sculpt & Render

$12.99 · Designed for iPad

A full 3D studio for iPad and iPhone: model, sculpt, texture and path-trace photoreal renders. Made for Apple Pencil. Offline: no account, no subscription, no tracking. Model, sculpt and render in 3D — right on your iPad or iPhone. Mini Modeler takes you from a simple cube to a photoreal image in one app. Shape every face, edge and point, sculpt organic forms with Apple Pencil, add real materials, then render with a built-in GPU path tracer. Everything runs on your device: no account, no subscription, no internet connection needed.
