Thingiverse Printables | 3D GO Reviews

by -.—-.-.-

What a joke of an app. Like others said, if you’re that strapped for cash put ads into ThingiversePrintables3DGO . Ridiculously and naive to think that people will pay for something they can use their free browser to view and access.

by Cindypain

ThingiversePrintables3DGO doesn't really provide much more functionality than just accessing thingiverse via a web browser. The only thing I thought might be worth the download was the ability to view the files in AR. However, if they think that's worth a monthly subscription of any price, they're wildin cause it most certainly is not. Buggy app as well. Don't waste your time download it, trust me.

To the Dev: If you really need revenue from ThingiversePrintables3DGO, use a few ads. That's my suggestion. Because paying just to access thingiverse on a different Ul is crazy.

Reply to developer comment:
-No, I do not think ThingiversePrintables3DGO is worth a monthly subscription of any amount (as stated above). According to the other reviews I see, people agree with my statement. The AR functionality might be worth a $1-$4 one-time purchase, but honestly I wouldn’t pay that myself.

-As I also stated in my original review above, Ads could easily provide revenue if you need it from ThingiversePrintables3DGO. This would shift the financial burden off of the consumer and you’d still get paid. This would also make ThingiversePrintables3DGO worth using.

-Yeggi and StlFinder both provide model search results from more sites than ThingiversePrintables3DGO. AND they’re both freely usable via phone web browser. Therefore, I stand by everything I said.

ThingiversePrintables3DGO was pretty bad when it was released and now its unusable. Its time to terminate the development team and get a new one since there is so much potential that is clearly being missed

Looks like phone font sizes are not correctly handled.

Downloaded 2x does not do anything. Nothing will open past the first page.

All I get is “error 🙁” when I try to log in.

I downloaded ThingiversePrintables3DGO into my iPhone it opens and does nothing at all.
It opens to the opening page (I assume) and nothing happens when you touch the screen. It does absolutely nothing. I do not recommend ThingiversePrintables3DGO.

You can’t do with anything that you find! Once you search, you find it all you can do is preview it which you can’t download it can’t get to the other side you can’t save it. You can’t do anything unless you pay. Just another scam for money!

I was able to log in with a google account but upon opening ThingiversePrintables3DGO nothing registers but playing with the 3D model and I am unable to see any other screen

by Jay The Bean

It’s a good app to find new print projects but the slicer part is extra. I paid for the monthly subscription to use the slicer in so but when i try to paid a file the screen goes black and doesn’t load anything. i have tried many times with different stl files but it never goes past the black screen. canceled the membership the next day.

by Dentite

The interface is an illegible mess. The upsell panels ave text that’s hard to read because of the floating drawings in the background. Overall design feels like it’s from 2014. Can’t see the benefit of paying for pro, it’s very vague what you would actually get.

by Manic803

Not sure what’s changed in the last week but I can no longer go anywhere except Home Screen before it crashes. Before this I was able to search everything.

I’m rather suspicious of the reviews for ThingiversePrintables3DGO. It’s one of the lowest-effort, least accessible UI’s I’ve encountered. Given the apparent effort and/or lack of sophistication, I would imagine it’s either the project of a very young/inexperienced developer or simply a cash grab. It’s not really any more useful than searching in your web browser—it’s actually less useful, as many basic features from the websites hosting these models are not accessible. But don’t take my word for it, the free trial was simple to start, and just as simple to end.

Dev: Your 3D viewer is pretty good but, especially for $30/year, I would expect more from such an app. The UI is confusing. If a button is inactive, it should change states to provide some visual indication of that. It was difficult/impossible to get any details for the models. Just all around, it seems like you have stuck otherwise useful websites into a worse wrapper. I’m not trying to be mean or anything. If this is indeed a good faith effort to provide a useful service, then I hope you’re open to constructive criticism.

The new update incorporating different STL sites is great until this new update rolled out and now I can’t even get into ThingiversePrintables3DGO because of the “Welcome to 3D Go” page at the beginning when I open ThingiversePrintables3DGO . The next button is way too low and inaccessible to get into ThingiversePrintables3DGO , a quick easy fix would be to make the page scrollable so users can scroll down and click next to leave the “Welcome to 3D Go” page.

by Andrew Giles

Everything about the UI is so much cleaner than the original app, and it genuinely would be a more pleasant experience if everything other than just looking at the 3D models wasn’t locked behind a subscription paywall. Like I’d get it if there were some super premium features, but like you literally cannot simply LIKE a model to come back for later or save it for a later download. Your best bet would be to have a notes page and just copy and paste the name of the model on it so you can find it later underneath the plethora of files people upload every day on the site. I don’t know, maybe I’m overthinking it, but I just find it a little absurd that I have to pay like $3.99 a month to like and save a model for later. Seems a bit goofy to me.

I just installed ThingiversePrintables3DGO and it does have a nice UI but ThingiversePrintables3DGO crashes with a white screen constantly on my iPhone. I end up uninstalling and reinstalling to fix it for a short time then it goes white screen again. Hopefully this will be fixed in the near future as ThingiversePrintables3DGO has nice potential.

by Water Blttle

ThingiversePrintables3DGO is really good and useful compared to the website version although sometimes when I am scrolling through on ThingiversePrintables3DGO the screen turns white and freezes.

by Toomanictom

I’m sure it’s a great app but I have a iPhone 12 mini but I can’t get past the startup slides because the “Next” button is hidden. To be fair, a lot of apps have this problem so eventually I’ll get a new phone and try this out.

by TTAnonymous

ThingiversePrintables3DGO is really awesome! I have used it to find many files to print over many different websites very quickly and easily! My only problem is that you have to pay to use the 3d viewer, but I understand that this is how ThingiversePrintables3DGO developer gets money from ThingiversePrintables3DGO , so I’m just happy ThingiversePrintables3DGO works as well as it does!!

by Freddy Krueger Jr

So many things to choose from. I can’t just stop at one, let alone a handful

by YaBoiCy

I love ThingiversePrintables3DGO it has all sorts of cool stuff I have been using ThingiversePrintables3DGO for my Ender 3 pro and these 3D models are amazing the only problem I have with this is that the files save as zip codes and I always forget to fix it but overall it is an amazing app.

by Kalpy Nalp

Can’t imagine the work that must go into maintaining ThingiversePrintables3DGO. Thank you so much!!

Everytime I open ThingiversePrintables3DGO, there is always something new and awesome! Keep up the good work!
I love being able to view all platforms at the same time

I'm absolutely thrilled to have discovered this incredible app that grants me access to all my favorite sites right on my phone! It's like a dream come true.

One of the standout features that I adore about ThingiversePrintables3DGO is the ability to effortlessly browse and select models while I'm out and about. It's truly a game-changer to have the freedom to make choices on the fly, knowing that I can seamlessly transition to their astonishing website on my computer later on.

Speaking of their website, it's simply amazing! It offers a visually pleasing and user-friendly experience that makes browsing and saving models an absolute joy. The attention to detail and the thought put into the design is truly commendable.

I can't help but express my excitement and satisfaction with ThingiversePrintables3DGO. The team behind it deserves huge applause for their hard work and dedication. I genuinely appreciate their commitment to continuously improving and providing us with an exceptional user experience.

Keep up the outstanding work! I'm certain that ThingiversePrintables3DGO will continue to exceed expectations and bring immense value to its users like myself.

First, I love the interface of ThingiversePrintables3DGO . I love being able to switch seamlessly between sites when searching for products (as well as not seeing ads). Downloading files is actually easier than using the actual sites.

As far as the developer goes, I was experiencing an issue that they addressed personally and very quickly logging into ThingiversePrintables3DGO - never had this sort of response before, and it really shows that they care about their app!

I have Toybox 3D printer and I don’t know how to upload files from thingiveres to the Toybox app

by Fjufffgj

Not sure what the point of searching for stuff you can't download. Useless

by Astra X

Couldn’t be happier, the apps been easy to navigate and has been a game changer in helping with my latest project. Can’t wait to see how else I can put it to use in the future.

Had an issue where ThingiversePrintables3DGO would crash when selecting the saved models category. I ended up sending a support message to bring up the issue. Within a few hours, Aaron had sent a response stating he was working to get it fixed the same day. Two hours later, Aaron sent a follow up email that he had submitted the fix to Apple. By the end of the day, the update was available and fixed the issue. NOTE: This was on a Saturday.

It’s uncommon nowadays to get such a swift response on an app issue, especially on a weekend. ThingiversePrintables3DGO has seen rapid advancement since it’s release and I see why. The Tufts are clearly dedicated to creating a quality product and I commend you all for that. Keep up the great work!

Everything is great about ThingiversePrintables3DGO. It’s wonderful except for one prom for some reason Colts 3-D never works. I don’t know why, but it just doesn’t. But thank you for making us and spending time.

by SWMO_Dude

So far so good! I decided to buy an iPad instead of a laptop, therefore, I needed a slicer. 3D Go has allowed me to continue running my 3d printer. Thank you for a great app!

Perfect for 3d printing. Must have!
