User Reviews

Users largely appreciate Apple compatibility and the app’s role in Cricut workflows, but reliability is a major issue. Common problems include crashes, inability to save edits, lag, and disruptive updates that remove features or introduce bugs. Connectivity to machines is inconsistent and access to saved projects can fail. Subscriptions and premium content are also sources of frustration. Overall, the app is useful but its stability and UX issues push users toward seeking alternatives.
Pros
  • Works on Apple devices (iPhone/iPad) and is valued by users for its Apple compatibility.
  • Essential tool for Cricut workflows; has helped some users start or run a small business.
  • Enables creation and management of Cricut projects within Design Space.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes that interrupt work and cause loss of progress.
  • Inability to save edits when uploading and editing images; auto-refresh/out-of-session timeouts.
  • Significant lag and slow performance, especially when resizing or adjusting items.
  • Updates frequently remove features or introduce bugs, degrading usability.
  • Connectivity issues / disconnections with Cricut devices, making cuts unreliable.

EDIT: I tried all the suggested repairs and NOTHING WORKS! It connects in Bluetooth Settings but will not connect in the app. I have connected through Bluetooth settings but when I click make, it gives another box to connect. The adapter blinks and it disconnects. BUT it is still connected in my Bluetooth settings. I have done everything but reinstall the app and throw the machine on the floor!
