uMake review
A capable Apple-device 3D modeling tool for precise design, rendering, and presentation.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
uMake is a 3D modeling and CAD design application for architects, interior designers, product designers, CAD professionals, students, and 3D modeling enthusiasts. Its workflow combines NURBS-based surface modeling with precision sketching, construction planes, push-pull, revolve, fillet, chamfer, array, symmetry, and mirror tools. The product is available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, making it particularly suitable for designers who want a mobile-centered modeling workflow on Apple devices.
The published plans show a freemium structure. The Free plan includes 2 Spaces, 3D file import including SKP, 3D file viewing, watermarked rendering, and measure tools. Basic costs $9.99 per month or $119.99 per year and adds unlimited Spaces, AI tools, drawing tools, presentation tools including AR, and dimension tools. Pro costs $14.99 per month or $179.99 per year and adds unlimited 2D elements, unlimited 3D elements, unlimited textures, unlimited environment lights, and extended AI usage. The annual Basic and Pro plans provide the same listed feature groups as their monthly counterparts.
For production and presentation work, uMake combines CAD and 3D file interchange with ray-traced and real-time rendering, presentation slides, camera animation, AR visualization, and AI image-to-3D and styling tools. Its integrations include SketchUp, 3D Warehouse, SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Rhino 3D, AutoCAD, Revit, and ArchiCAD. These capabilities make it a practical fit for Apple-based designers who need to move between modeling, visualization, and client presentation. It is less suitable for teams requiring Windows or non-Apple platform coverage, or for users who need more than the Free plan’s 2 Spaces without a subscription.
