IMPORTANT: Before buying this version make sure that your printer connection works with the free version (GCode Simulator (Free) )
Visualization and Simulation
-----------------------------------------------------
In addition to the 3D printer control, it can visualize Gcodes and simulate a 3D print .GCode Simulator recognizes the print speeds and can simulate the print in realtime, but you can also speedup the prints (fast forward). Each layer is painted in a different color to see how a layer overlaps with the layer below.
Refer to the homepage for more information: http://gcodeprintr.dietzm.de
Visualization & Simulation Features:
-------------------------------------------------------
It analyses the Gcode file and prints additional information like:
*overall print time
*remaining print time
*speed of X/Y/Z movements
*speed of extrusion
*used filament
*yx move distance
*print object dimension
*average print speeds
*number of layers
*layer details
*speed distribution / Acceleration
*weight and price of the printed object
AND MORE ...
Remarks and Limitations
-----------------------------------
Work with many printers (e.g. Reprap, PrintrBot, Ultimaker, Makibox, Solidoodle, Robot3d, Multec Multirap). MakerBot firmware talks using a proprietary protocol called S3G where as others use raw G-Code, therefore only the gcode simulation is supported.
Tested with Slic3r and Skeinforge generated Gcodes.
To load files locally from the device, sd-card or dropbox you need to install a Android file manager (e.g. ES File Explorer)
Only absolut positioning is supported. Gcodes with relative positioning will likely fail.
Loading large Gcode files (multiple MegaByte) might fail, depending on the available memory of the device.
Printer Control Feature requires a android device with USB-OTG support and a USB-OTG cable.
Bluetooth support is still experimental.
PROBLEM SUPPORT
----------------
In case of problems please check on the homepage if the problem is already described.
If not, its best to generate a problem report with the app itself. (long press on console -> send by email)
You can also write an email to gcode@dietzm.de, I'm willing to fix all problems in time.

Not compatible on my tablet. Not looking for a refund but How can i get it copied to one of my other tablet. Please help i know it will work for me once i fix this little problem.

Been using this program on my spare Samsung Tab 3 7". By factory, it does not work, because the Tab 3 7" does not support OTG out the box. After rooting and installing CM12 (Android 6), i have OTG. Program works very well, better than i anticipated. 1 issue i've been coming across is - it will force close when entering the app during a print, or after a print, into a second print. Not sure if this is due to system memory, or because of hiccups. One thing i'd like to see - treating the gcode recieving port as a wireless print server for slicing programs to send directly to. I'm fairly new in the 3d printer scene, so i'm not sure if this can be done. 4/5 due to random force closes.

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?

This is the only Android app I have found to send g-code to my 3-d printer and control it manually. It even allows pause and continue during a print. I have not had a single problem with this app. It works great! The only improvement would be to add STL file opening and object slicing to generate the g-code. I currently have to generate g-code with Slic3r on a pc. Now that I have used it on more prints, I can give a little additional information... When printing really complex models that take a lot of memory, it can get lost and freeze up once in a while. Using the GCODE command G92 Xnnn Ynnn Znnn Ennn which resets the specified coordinates to new values can cause the display to draw the model incorrectly.

I does what is says beautifully. It contains several useful networking features too. Though designed for 3D printing it works as a g-code sender for a CNC machine too.

I can tell it is definitely geared towards all bluetooth use, which is awesome. I Had a spare HC-05 bluetooth adapter from my quadcopter projects and all I had to do was plug in into the Ramps board enable it on Marlin and bingo I was using the app to control the printer. A really big touch screen control of the printer for hardly any money.

Hey, this worked right away when I plugged my Galaxy Tab s into my printrbot simple. The weird thing is my tablet plays starts to play music when the app is running for a bit. Is that part of the app?

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!

I've bought this after trying the free version. The free version does all I want. I bought this to show appreciation. X axis is inverted in mine, but it is brilliant for colour changes and set up. Will 100% keep this on my daily phone. Thanks. Brilliant app. Andy. Galaxy S2. Melzi Clone.
