Silhouette Go 4+

So frustrated!!!

I was working on an image for an hour. Since the app only allows a very basic editing feature, I had to covert several files, upload here and pull elements from each file to create the image I was looking for and.. then all of a sudden the app did some sort of reset and I LOST EVERYTHING!!! I’m on a timeline for a T-shirt order and now I have to start ALL OVER 🥺😭😤
There needs to be a way to save our work in the app to our library!!! This is ridiculous and a waste of time to have to start all over just because there isn’t a “save” feature!!!

Developer Response ,

We're sorry you had trouble with the app. Thank you very much for your feature suggestion. We are continually working to add functionality to Silhouette Go, and we think you will be pleased with many of the updates that come in the future! If you continue to experience crashing issues, please reach out to support@silhouetteamerica.com.

Functionality Isn’t There

I have used Silhouette products for about ten years. I’ve always liked how easily I could design and cut things out using the full program, Silhouette Studio, so I thought I would try Silhouette Go for the iPad. It took me a good four hours to cut out a simple script font. I had to go back and forth from iPad to Mac to take the design I made, convert it to an SVG, upload it to the Silhouette Library directly, make cut lines, and then use the app to cut it (my Mac would not connect to my machine at the time). It was a very frustrating process.

I really can’t see myself using my Silhouette much if I have to go from Mac to iPad all the time… I have regrets that I didn’t buy a cutting machine that had better cut programs with it. :(

If developers are reading this - please consider adding the trace function to the app. That would have saved me an inordinate amount of time. The basic functionality of adding type/font would be nice too.

Useless! Need an upgrade

This app helps me literally do nothing! This is not a very in-depth way to design and cut. I guess this app is basically just for designs that you want to purchase and cut from the app, because trying to design your own photos and files to cut, this is absolutely terrible. I thought the silhouette cameo was a high-end product which is why I purchased it, but this app is’s for a kindergartener. Silhouette if you are seeing this review, you need to do better! This app needs to be redesigned. It would be great if you can get all of the same features from the actual desktop program and fit it into the app. If you can fit all of those features in it I’m pretty sure all of us silhouette users wouldn’t mind paying a couple bucks for the app to get the whole program. Just food for thought. Also I paid for the whole business edition programming for my desktop so that would be nice for it to identify my account when signing in and give me all of those features.

Thank you for your feedback. Silhouette Go is designed as a simple companion to aid sending on-the-go. However, we are continually working on new developments, and we think you will be pleased with many of the updates that come in the future!
