About GCodePrintr - The 3D Print App APK
Table Of Contents
Description
GCodePrintr enables you to use any Android tablet or phone as a touch screen for your 3D printer and to run 3D prints without the need for having a PC running. With the intuitive UI interface you can always see what the print status is (e.g. remaining time) and modify print parameters (speed, temperature, etc.) during the print. Your Android device can also act as a web server to allow you to start a print remotely or watch the print status.IMPORTANT: Before buying this version make sure that your printer connection works with the free version: GCode Simulator (Free).
See 3dprintapps.de for more information.

⚠ Remarks and Limitations
Printer connection requires a Android device with USB-OTG support and a USB-OTG adapter.
Tested with Slic3r, Simplify3d and Skeinforge generated gcodes.
To load files locally from the device or dropbox you need to install a Android file manager (e.g. ES File Explorer)
MakerBot uses a proprietary protocol called S3G where as others use raw G-Code, therefore only the gcode simulation is supported.
Loading very large gcode files might fail, depending on the available memory of the device. OctoPrint support is experimental.
Tip:Use GCodeSimulator for PC to send files from PC directly to your Android tablet to print them.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★This app ran my printer better then my pc did! Totally worth every cent! Thank you! Now if only it had a pinch unpinch option for zooming in on details. I love the update and new look!
4 ★Great app. The first android app that can completely control your printer. It immediately works on my Solidoodle 2 Pro printer. I did a small test print and it's really amazing to see it printing from my Galaxy S3 phone! I have'nt used it totally but some of my feedback so far 1) Setting of extruder/bed temperature. Instead of a slider can we have the option to type in the values? It's hard to set to a specific temperature with sliders. 2) Is it possible to charge the phone thru the otg?
4 ★Because mine does.
5 ★Seems to be working again.
5 ★Really good app, know him personally from 2010, really good staff
5 ★All I did was order a USB OTG cable from amazon that I needed to hook my tablet into my RUMBA board and everything was properly seen, recognized and connected without any hassle. The only recommendation I would make is to put the temperatures in a larger size font so it is easy to see. Otherwise, its perfect!
5 ★Shut up and take my money
5 ★Developer is very involved in ongoing updates and improvements. Fills a gap for 3d printers and android
5 ★There are few apps that I can really describe as remarkable this works wonderfully Samsung s3 and Prusa printer
5 ★Just plug in a usb otg, the printer and I was good to go, excellent job!
5 ★Great app. It just works as described.
4 ★Really needs extrusion speed options (faster manual extrusion) to make it useful when changing filament. Print from sd also does not work on my M2 with RAMBO board, it always says failed...:( Really great developer is working on a fix
