Features & Capabilities

3D Scratchpad is an easy-to-use, full-featured design tool for creating 3D models. Freehand draw in three dimensions using simple primitive solid shapes and intuitive gestures.

User Reviews

Most reviews criticize 3D Scratchpad for frequent crashes or not opening, and for a paid model that blocks saving or editing in the free version. Users say it offers only basic AR placement of simple shapes with limited editing (one shape, one color) and no easy way to revert to a previous design or recover work after exiting. Some want USDZ import and height data. A small number call the app great or fun, but overall sentiment is negative due to the paywall and limited features.
Pros
  • Great app that fits user needs
  • AR placement of shapes into the real world
  • Basic ability to create/place simple 3D shapes
Cons
  • Pay to save / paid plan required to save or load designs
  • Limited editing capabilities: only one shape and one color; cannot change shapes/colors
  • Inability to revert to previous design / cannot edit after closing
  • App crashes or fails to open for some users
  • Missing features like USDZ import and height measurement

This app doesn’t even open. But sadly I cannot open it, It crashes before it loads this app does not work in any way shape or form. it’s completely useless, waste of space on the screen, doesn’t even do anything, it’s less than nothing. i hate it. 0/10 would not recommend
