Please Add a Sculpting Tool

I think that Tinkercad is awesome 3D design software, especially for children. But the shapes and things don't really look smooth, even with high poly. I recognize this as a way to keep a mobile device from catching on fire, I guess. Adding a tool which allows you to warp shapes as if they were clay, still maintaining the high poly appearance, would make it easier rather than to put shapes you want together and make the connections seamless, which is very hard. A sculpting tool would let you "weld" shapes together to create a smooth connection between the two shapes

Buggy and not as good as the web interface

First off, I really appreciate that Tinkercad is free. I used to use the web version to design all my simpler stuff because I was too lazy to learn Fusion 360 or Onshape well. It's pretty amazing what you can do with a simple little CAD. However, the iPad app is not nearly as good as the web interface. I honestly could live with the clunky interface if it weren't for the major bug I'm seeing when you tap a dimension and enter it with the keyboard. After hitting "OK", the keyboard takes a long time to disappear and most of the time that same dimension box will come up again and require you to enter the number yet again and hope it works. It was just frustrating and significantly took away from my experience. If I notice that the bug gets fixed I'll update my review to 5 stars.

Now after getting an iPad Pro, I decided to try out Shapr3D and absolutely loved the user interface. The integration with Apple Pencil is very seamless and intuitive. It's a powerful CAD tool with a lot of potential but of course it's not free (subscription service too...)

Good for children and beginners, not advanced modeling

It fulfills everything someone who knows nothing about modeling or someone only needing simple designs would need, however, beyond that it can create more frustrations than necessary if you are wanting to make more advanced models and don't have a ton of time to make every small detail from small shapes… And if you do make it to the finish line with very detailed models, it can be a pain to transfer to a slicer if you are using the program to 3D print.

Other than that I wish there was a way to search through the collections of shapes without having to go through tabs manually.
