3D Modeling
Made Simple
Sketch, sculpt, and export real 3D models — with your mouse, trackpad, finger, or Apple Pencil — and see them at real size in your room before you print.
Native on Mac, iPad, and iPhone. Buy once, use everywhere.
Everything you need to start building
Shapely 3D keeps the fundamentals simple and gets out of your way — whether you're prototyping a part, teaching geometry, or just enjoy building things in 3D.
Build from primitives
Compose scenes from simple shapes, 3D text, or an imported STL, then move, rotate, and scale everything with a precise on-screen gizmo.
Snap to the grid
A configurable grid with smart snapping keeps every piece exactly where you want it.
Measure as you work
Live measurements in millimeters or inches follow your edits, and the ruler tool measures and edits exact distances.
Orientation cube
Jump straight to any view — top, front, side, or anything in between — with a single click or tap.
Native documents
Your work autosaves as a native document and reopens exactly where you left off, with full undo support.
Mac, iPad & iPhone, one purchase
A true native app on every platform — keyboard and mouse on Mac, touch and Apple Pencil on iPad, the whole editor in your pocket on iPhone.
See it at real size before you print
View in Room opens your model in AR on your desk, at its actual size, through the camera. Or export a USDZ for Quick Look and any USD tool. iPhone and iPad on iOS 27.
Made for Apple Pencil
Hover to preview where a shape will land, squeeze or double-tap to switch between Pen and Freehand mid-sketch, and on iPadOS 27 the Pencil takes over the canvas so a resting hand draws nothing.
Spotlight, Siri & Shortcuts
Every project is searchable by its name and by the objects in it, and opens straight into the editor. Shortcuts and Siri can open or create a project, or export an STL without launching the app.
Shapely 3D Pro
One purchase unlocks the full toolkit on Mac, iPad, and iPhone — no subscription, yours forever.
CSG boolean operations
Union, subtract, and intersect shapes to build more complex forms.
STL export
Send your models straight to a 3D printer or another CAD tool.
Sketch & Extrude
Draw a 2D profile and pull it into a solid.
Smoothing
Round any object with adjustable, non-destructive subdivision.
Cut tool
Slice objects apart along a face or a drawn line.
Edit Faces
Move, extrude, and reshape the individual faces of any object — and give any face a color of its own.
Available as a one-time in-app purchase. Universal purchase: buy it on one platform, unlock it on Mac, iPad, and iPhone.
