Nomad Sculpt 1.91 Released

Stéphane Ginier has released a new version of Nomad Sculpt, the popular mobile sculpting and painting app for both Android and iOS. This update, the first in over six months, introduces significant quality-of-life improvements, enhancing tools and other features for a smoother user experience.

For example, the iOS version of Nomad Sculpts saw improvements in quad remesher guide handling when symmetry is enabled. For gizmo, there's a add new target mode with sync instance. The Tube Tool has received several updates, including: preventing profile editing when the profile is aligned with the camera view, snapping only to the first point when creating a tube (and disabling snapping if the option is turned off), fixing an issue where cap triangulation sometimes failed, and ensuring the snap function only targets the vertices of the current object.

You can see some of the updates in action demonstrated by the developer below:
