## Review summary

Reviewers praise the app's potential for sharing 3D artwork, but repeatedly flag major stability and compatibility issues: assets often fail to load or render, objects disappear, performance lags, and the UI lacks guidance for file import and manipulation. Scaling and placement are difficult, and AR content frequently fails to display. Some users note privacy-friendly behavior (no camera permissions) and that the feature set matches their needs, but overall the app feels incomplete or alpha-like.

### Pros

- Great for sharing/showing 3D artwork.
- Feature set aligns with what some users want.
- Does not prompt for camera permissions (privacy-friendly).

### Cons

- Importing and displaying 3D assets is unreliable: OBJ/MTL files and textures often fail to load or render correctly.
- Objects frequently disappear or require re-upload, indicating instability.
- Performance can be very poor (low FPS on iPad) and laggy.
- UI/UX issues: file import workflow is non-intuitive, lacks instructions, and some tabs/features (Recent) don't work.
- Scaling/placement of added objects is difficult: objects are too large and cannot be resized properly, leading to placement errors.
