Glad I sent this one your way. The developer is planning on an Android version this fall.
Really impressed with what it can do so far and how well it runs! That is great news as well!
How do you import downloaded files bro
A subscription based model is a big red flag for me
Why? I’m trying to learn, teach me please.
They're very close but no cigar. I wish Prusa slicer, Cura or even Orca would make a mobile version.
I use Chitubox pro and will definitely try this out. I run my life and channel off an ipad so I’d be delighted to trade a windows based slicer for this one. Early support really helps the developer fix bugs and improve the app. Great vid, thanks!
It’s disappointing that you complain about the cost (a single coffee per month) when you are sponsored for almost all your videos by Elegoo.
A single engineer has significant costs for an app. Not to mention it’s how they support themselves and their families.
$35/year is no different than buying it and having paid upgrades.
I think it's great that Jessy keeps average consumers in mind in spite being supported!
And these subscription models that don't cover any cost but simply pour in money to the developers wether they keep working on the project or not have got to stop.
Looks great - I would like to see an iPad app to slice files for FDM printers. If you know of one, please let us know.
Same here. As far as I know there isn’t anything yet. I believe there is a browser based slicer
Realvison is a browser based one if you have to use ipad to slice.
Pikaslice now supports FDM
I just recently got my first resin printer a Mars 3 Pro. Compared to some pricing of other tools like Shapr 3d or Chitubox I think that 35 bucks for an entire year is very reasonable. Then again I am currently doing only really basic prints so I am not sure if it is missing something that is necessary for others. The app is easy to use, I think the icons for import/export should be flipped around. Export looks like you are importing and visa versa. It would be nice if they could add support to share from Shapr directly into Pikaslice without needing to save the stl file somewhere else.
People who tolerate this whole "renting software" stuff are really the worst types. I could understand if they did it like...Lightburn, where you pay for the software, get a years worth of updates, and the software _doesn't stop working after the year is over_ - but you're just perpetuating this by buying into their ecosystem. BMW is starting a new program where you _rent_ the ability to have heated seats. Because of this crap. Because there are always people that are willing to give up and let immoral systems take over.
@@ThantiK You do you bud
The price seems reasonable to me. I hate that everything is moving towards a SaaS/subscription model, but at least this one looks to offer more than some current slicers at nearly 1/5 the cost. Definitely something worth keeping an eye on and with the ability to run some IOS apps on Apple Silicon based Macs, this could be become even more awesome.
Yeah Isn’t there a macos update coming that will allow some apps to run on the laptop/desktops? Would be another great alternative
@@UncleJessy some apps can run on macOS if the developer enables it.
It could be “ported” to a native experience if it’s written using Apple’s Catalyst framework. Ported is in quotes because technically there is little to do if that’s what they’re using.
I have an old resin printer and this slicer was the only one that worked for me worth the money
I think a buck a month would be a better price, if they're not willing to do with the one and done option. i'd gladly pay $10 for the app to try it out, but the last thing I need is another subsciption chipping away at my bank account
A FDM version would be good.
Very cool program. Wishing they’d get chitu and Cura on iPad. I’d pay good money.
I’d rather have them charge me $100 bucks one time. I hate subscription pricing and it’s a huge turnoff.
Yeah, I also have a love hate with saas model but i see how it is these days vs being locked into version X until you pay to move to the next release or skip 8 releases like I typically do 😂🤣
Oh man, that's awesome! Definitely going to try this out!
Yeah man! Really dang excited to see this released!
Can’t wait to try it. Welcome to Florida🔥🥵
Hahaha I had to crop way in on my final shot because I was so damn sweaty 😂🤣
@@UncleJessy I’m sorry, I hope you made it back home without melting😂.
For the life of me, I have not been able to figure out how to use this slicer! Thank you for this...and I'm not unfamiliar with slicing...I've used PreForm on my Form 2 printer, Cura, and Prusa. I think the pricing at $3.99 a month is fair...and $35 a year is completely doable. I absolutely hate subscriptions...
That looks like a really great option, and I will probably grab it to play with... But it loses me at the subscription. There are just way, way too many subscriptions out there. Also, I suspect that the kind of models I work with would make the workflow kind of unpleasant. 500-900 meg files are just a hassle to move on and off an iPad.
The Archive app supports NAS, and iCloud sync is hassle free - maybe try those out? :)
I agree totally with your subscription point!
Woooooow. Im really excited to check this out with my Saturn 2.
nice and fast thanks bro
Is there any chance you can make a 101 for beginners/dummies with this app?lol if I gotta be on patron I will lmk
Any way you could go more in depth with this app?
Finally!!!
What is the mini uv light you are using in the opening?
That's the UV light attachment on the new Elegoo Mercury XS washing and curing station. Still have preorder pricing directly from Elegoo's site.
That’s the new wash cure unit from elegoo that has that built in/plug-in to the cure station. Pretty awesome
Edit: no undo is the only deal breaker for me so far, but it looks impressive otherwise.
Also color me impressed, their Jupiter is already on here. The only thing I need now is to figure out how to fix inconsistencies with my 3d print on the iPad itself, because I'm still tethered to my PC and 3D builder to fix the files and make them 3D print ready. So then my typical work load goes:
• Nomad on iPad Pro, export obj to Google Drive
• Download from Google Drive on PC
• Load into 3D Builder on PC and fix the mesh
• Save out as stl
• Open STL in slicer
So to loop back to my iPad would be very inconvenient in this case.
What sort of file issues are you having? Making it solid? Just recently got a PC so need to try out 3D Builder and see what it can do
@@UncleJessy basically 3D Builder takes my files and checks them for irregularities and repairs the file. I do this with any 3D file I personally create (I am versed with Zbrush and Nomad). If I buy or get files from anywhere I tend to just go straight to the slicer.
If I zremsh in Zbrush and reproject the details, the file is usually fine, but any Nomad files tend to always come out needing 3D build repair.
Nice review! I ran into some of the same issues. Definitely needs some polish. Manually supporting a model would be a pain as it stands now. Totally agree about the need for a touch-only nav option.... I'll probably subscribe once they get some things ironed out.
$35.99 a year isn't so bad when you consider the prices of the other slicers. The reality of app development nowadays is that subscription is the only model that really covers the long term development needed. It looks like it'll be great once it gets a bit more polish.
It’s a ridiculous price
More than happy to pay for a slicer on my Android tablet!! Needs to be comparable with Cura. Integration with Klipper or Octoprint would be a massive plus.
@@mmavcanuck Lychee is nearly twice that amount for their Pro (even more for Premium) and Chitubox is $169. Neither on mobile and Chitubox is incredibly buggy. (Lychee is half decent but still buggy and way slower than it should be on a modern computer).
@@ZwilnikSF which are also ridiculous
@@mmavcanuck Ah, you're in the "developers should work for free or less than minimum wage" camp then?
Uncle Jessy, which iPad are you using? I’m curious how the iPad’s capability affects the app. I have a non-M1 iPad Pro, and I could see the M1 doing a lot here.
AFAIK he's using a M1 iPad. My main device for development has been an iPad Pro from 2020 with 6GB RAM that's around ~40% slower than the M1 while slicing, hollwing etc. and is perfectly fine.
Yeah running a 2021 m1 pro. Might give the app a spin on my wife’s older iPad to see how it handles
With an iPad Pro 11 2020 I just tested scaling, rotating, auto support and paning around for 6 larger objects that cover nearly the whole Saturn build platform.
Pikaslice performs blazing fast and I am really satisfied and blown away. 👍🏼
@@berndp7474 I’m honestly amazed by it and performs a lot better than lychee or chitu for me at the moment
Thank you, everyone! I appreciate your help. 🙂 I gave it a quick look, and I think it’s definitely worth giving it a shot. I think the one thing that I’d love to see is one thing Jessy mentioned in the video... Magic Keyboard integration. (It’s my favorite accessory for the iPad.) It does work with the trackpad, but it spins the model so fast that it’s not really usable.
I did check to see if I could download it on my M1 Mac… mostly out of morbid curiosity to see if it would work. Unsurprisingly, given the heavy touch requirements, it’s not available.
Compared to the modeling apps, this is a steal! Price wise..
I like the slicer but as a rule I don’t rent my software. If it was a one time purchase I’d give it a shot but as it’s a subscription it’s a hard pass for me.
Ohhh damn this sounds good
Ok for the resin, but something for FDM?
I agree with the one-off or per slice price. But it is still cheaper than chitubox pro.
Contemplating this, but needs a backend and would probably not be available for several months.
@@pikaslice7810 « One-off does not need a backend, and you could add per-slice pricing via "in game money" kept on the user's iCloud account, couldn't you..?
I don't buy into the subscription model out of principle (you don't have recurring cost so I shouldn't pay a recurring fee), but I happily pay premium for premium apps. How about a $100 one-off and then reduced cost when upgrading to the next major version? If I want more (features, models etc), it's only reasonable that I pay more, but I should not have to keep paying for the same product...
And that's too bad because this slicer looks extremely promising! 👌🏽
How to add supports?
And dummy me is using a Creality and a Monoprice SLA. I guess I should look at switching over.
the pricing doesn't bother me. But a Freemium pricing structure would be better like lychee slicer. the core functionality is free with ads but certain features require a subscription
I love the app 💪
Uncle jessy.. idea for a video. DIY washing stations using things like fish tank water pumps and a diy resin curing station
I hope the people developers heard this and hot fixed those very easily fixed issues. Fingers should always be movement and gestures. Selection and manipulation of an object should always be with the pencil only.
wow, this is exciting stuff. looks nicely made and snappy. nice to see more support for ipad.
Hi Jessy,
Will you be making a video about energy consumption? It can be really useful. There is 0 information's with the resin printers on the internet.
Hi my friend... This video is telling about SLA printers of Pikaslice but it is not telling about Pikaslice's Fdm Printers how it works..? Can you make a video about it..? About How Pikaslice's FDM Printers works..?
hello
I wanted to tell you that Pikaslice 2.0 has just been released for ipad pro
the big news
its which supports filament printer
I have Anycubic Cobra Max and it works
I'm new with the 3d printer I still have to find the right parameters Sorry for my English I'm from Quebec in Canada and my first language is French so I translate with google
THANKS
I really think 3.99 a month is very inexpensive. I dont even mind the 35 for the yr if it works good. Again 3.99 is nothing mainly bc I want to see competition when it comes to slicers. That pushes innovation an im loving the idea of a ipad version over pc version
Is it easy to use ? I have only printed a few things as of yet - on my anycubic photon mono x - and I use lychee - I am a huge novice
Hi my friend... First of all thanks a lot... But why Tool Box is not seem on my screen..?
Let me ask you a question I just bought the Neptune three 3-D printer not the resin one the regular one, anyway my question is I searched on Google could not find anything does anybody sell micro SD cards preloaded with 3-D prints I don’t understand why I can’t find one in 2022 I’m not very good at computers I just want to buy some artwork that I can print ????
I read that printers such as the Mars 3 are software locked to chitubox, is this true?
Subscription sucks but for a solo developer who needs to ensure regular income and be motivated to continue improving and updating the software, $35 a year is manageable.
Can it do the two stage lift or lower like newer Chitubox versions?
I saw it had a paint supports function. Does that work okay?
Does it have unsupported island detection?
What about an auto save option (given it crashes a bit)?
Can you support, hole and hollow a file and save to STL or only save as a sliced file or scene?
Can you do an updated tutorial
3d printers is cool
Is Creality a printer this will work this?
Can you use this for a regular Ender 3 printer
Do i need a IPad Pro to use Pikaslice or Just a Ipad?
I have tested it; works amazing. Sadly I did not found anywhere I could see an estimate of the amount of resin to be used; only the CTB. For me this is important!
Yu think an 5th gen iPad will work
Are you ever going to do anything else with Jupiter?
Hello to you
I'm new to 3d printing.
I can't save in the right format My printer is
Anycubic Cobra Max
can you install the drivers If not how can you succeed in printing
thank you for taking your time to help me
Peterlou
can u use picaslice with bambu? would love to send my shapr or nomad files direct to the printer...
Can you put infill on your prints using this?
THIS IS HUGE NEWS!
would prefer a just buy option. but the yearly is around the same as Lychee.
Slight correction here, Lychee Slicer is 65.99 excl. VAT when paid yearly and Pikaslice is 35.99 excl. VAT - so almost half the price. As mentioned in another comment, I'am contemplating payments per model, but it's still some time off.
WOOO
I had resolution issues with my mars 3 pro. I’m a complete newbie. Any suggestions?
Is there a android slicer that we can save the file in a SD card
I NEED HELP !!
how do I send what I mean in nomad into pick a slice??
Would like the option to buy the app, not just subscriptions…
Pikaslice😮
Any updates on this thing?
It would be nice if there was a one time purchase price. I would pay $120 to own the license for a device.
Will a 5gen iPad work with this?
Does this work with an ender 3 max neo?
I hope like hell you're calling out this garbage "Software As a Service" behavior @Uncle Jessy - you should be telling your viewers not to tolerate this kind of predatory anti-consumer behavior. $35 a year... can't even just buy a piece of software now, you have to RENT it. Coming from 3D printing being all Open Source, shared knowledge, and free. If you aren't absolutely screaming from the rooftops for people to avoid this crap, you are the problem.
I’m all for a 1 time charge but seeing it’s just a single person who is developing/supporting this app I can completely understand why they went the saas route. It’s 1000% easier to support vs managing paid users on version x, then asking to pay to upgrade to version y, and then users complaining for fixes on version X when you are developing version Z (I used to manage a large scale software app and this was an absolutely nightmare).
Developing on iOS does leave you a little limited with options. Maybe even a fully paid option with a lot more limited features.
Def things to consider but still pretty dang cool to finally see someone attempt this
Does it work with AnkerMake?
How do you turn on ant-aliasing?
unfortunately, there is no weight estimation...
Super excited until I realized it's subscription based. I do not endorse recurring cost on the consumer for something that does not impose a recurring cost on the developer. I would have happily paid a one-time fee of $100 for a functional iOS slicer, but I won't be buying into the subscription model, like I prefer using sub-par but set price 3D modeling tools over subscription based tools like Shapr.
Ipad out watching
Willing to pay for apps, definitely NOT subscription on a monthly/yearly basis.
Rather use ANY free mac/win slicer available.
let me know when it becomes free, then I will give a go.
I can't imagine a lot of people have a Mars 2 Pro stored wherever they visit and probably have a PC already for their 3D printing needs so paying an extra subscription for this seems a niche market to cater for. I can see this sell heaps if it were buy and not sub.
The consistent cash flow allows the dev to keep updating and supporting the app and the niche market that they're targeting is probably more than happy to pay the subscription fee. I tried it out but i think I'll stick to lychee free for now
@@mintynuggets I bought Clip Studio Pro which is a much insanely more complex program that has hundreds, if not thousands, of features that are updated regularly and is considered on par with Photoshop and I paid once. This whole "after sales updates needs tons of money" argument is all smoke and mirrors. The same happens in the video game industry too. Yes it costs them money to keep supporting but charge what it's worth and I'll buy in. In 5 years time this app will have cost you around $240. Not exactly money well spent if you ask me.
@@LordOfJazz i mean it's kinda the unfortunate world we all live in. The upcoming recession is gonna cause a major drop in people paying for subscription services so maybe switching to a pay once model is gonna be more beneficial
@@mintynuggets A recession will kill off a lot of start up companies and especially hobby focused businesses. They aren't targeting bug companies with a $4 sub fee so it will be interesting to see how long this app will be around.
Can I get one for fdm please??
Im so tired of subscription software. Sure its cheep but I would much rather pay once and be don with it. Everything seems to be going to the sub model. I mean everything.
Awesome app but I don’t do app subs. I would buy this app but no way will I do a subscription and don’t get me started with 3.99 a month jsmh
Hey something I want to see is if you can 3d print a toy car model both resin and pla, so could you do a video like that?
I’m sick and tired of subscription based apps. Give me a one time fee, not another cash cow.
The reality for app developers is that they need subscription pricing to be able to keep supporting development of the app beyond the initial release. Users want support and new features years beyond the initial version nowadays and a single up-front payment just doesn't cover that unless it's ridiculously high. Especially if it's a niche market where you won't get more than a few thousand sales if you're lucky.
I’m sick of subscription based software. I don’t mind paying a reasonable purchase price to own something.. you can even take away support after a year and only offer it if I renew… but $4/month added onto the $2/mo and $15/mo and the other $35/mo and that one other $12/mo etc etc etc… it adds up. I have maybe 20 different subscriptions I have to deal with each month. Aside from the cost, it’s difficult to manage.
$4/mo
$40/year
$240/lifetime max 20 prints per month
$600/lifetime max 50 prints per month
Or credits. Charge me per print. $10 bundle gets you 20 credits and you can even make them expire after 6 mo. or year
Why does everything need to be a subscription? People end up having hundreds of dollars in subs each month. NO THANKS
Then pay $35 for the year.
Software doesn’t write itself.
@@scottanguish2714 no... How about a one time payment? Up until the invention of the iPhone and the greed of silicon valley wanting reoccurring payments everyone feels that it's a good idea when all they're doing is milking the consumer.
Okay 35$ a year is very reasonable. Unlike Chitubox.
You had me until I heard subscription. FDM slicers.. free. Resin.. monthly blood donations. Ipad ready.. but pass. Give me a lifetime option and I will consider it.
🔥💕👍
Nmms
This literally looks like lychee’s slicer …but on iPad
Wait a sec, uv lamps are bad for your eyes😟
Oh no, what happened to your eye brows? Are u ok?
subscriptions are theft, so no on this.
Paid subscri..... Nope! No more subscriptions, I'm all subscribed out.
ipad cost a fortune
Useless. As someone new to all this, importing an already done file of an object doesn’t help. I need to know how to creat the object from scratch.
Did you not read the title of the video? This is for slicing a file. If you want to create a file Shapr3D has a basic free account and there are lots of tutorials online.
I was all on board until I heard subscription. Fuck all that. I’ll just use my computers for free. This would be neat but NOT subscription neat.
If you want continual development, subscription has become the norm. This is done by a single developer, he needs to eat...
@@ccatlett1984 sure but it’s comparing an incomplete software with a fee vs free feature filled software that’ll work on pretty much any computer. The idea of slicing on a tablet sounds neat but not enough to justify charging for it.
@@OrwinSantaCruz there are large populations on the planet the don't have a normal computer, but have an ipad or android tablet. So this will open the market for 3d printing more. On the "free" note, both Lychee and Chitubox have certain features behind a subscription tier. As this matures, I can see some things possibly being moved to a free tier, but honestly it's less than a Starbucks coffee a month....
👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 without paid is usless
Its big gay that it’s only for resin.
Depends on how much you would use it. I won’t pay for lychee or chitubox but if he maintains the app the $35 would be fair.
Nice review! I ran into some of the same issues. Definitely needs some polish. Manually supporting a model would be a pain as it stands now. Totally agree about the need for a touch-only nav option.... I'll probably subscribe once they get some things ironed out.
