The Tinkerplay app is based on the popular Modio app, which Autodesk previously acquired, and will join the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tinkercad.com%2F&amp;esheet=51060010&amp;newsitemid=20150317005304&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Tinkercad&amp;index=2&amp;md5=90c501d43a6e7803c72c9c0ecb80e606\" rel=\"nofollow\">Tinkercad<\/a>\u00a0family of products. The Tinkerplay app allows users to design and customize characters and creatures digitally with the option to 3D print afterwards. The 3D printed parts can also be snapped together for dynamic play. With this launch, new parts, features and functionality have been added to make the world of 3D design simple, fun and engaging. \u201cCreators, designers and makers from ages five to ninety, have blown us away with their passion for 3D modeling and 3D printing,\u201d said Samir Hanna, vice president and general manager, Autodesk Consumer and 3D Printing. \u201cWith Tinkerplay, we\u2019re providing another great tool designed for kids of all ages who want to play, create and tinker.\u201d The Tinkerplay app lets users quickly get started by dragging and dropping interchangeable parts to make custom creations. The parts are optimized for 3D printing as fully poseable characters and creatures, and are designed to not require rafting or support material to print. The print function within the app shows the layout of parts for 3D printing and provides an easy way to export print files to a variety of 3D printers. For users that are inspired to take their design skills one step further to create completely new parts, Tinkerplay connectors can be found in the Tinkercad web app. Autodesk has launched Tinkerplay simultaneously on various mobile platforms including\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fitunes.apple.com%2Fus%2Fapp%2Ftinkerplay%2Fid975940251%3Fmt%3D8&amp;esheet=51060010&amp;newsitemid=20150317005304&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=iOS&amp;index=3&amp;md5=24d4df0a05c324c60696979f8e5e2552\" rel=\"nofollow\">iOS<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dcom.autodesk.tinkerplay%26hl%3Den&amp;esheet=51060010&amp;newsitemid=20150317005304&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Android&amp;index=4&amp;md5=acd0a3357617e47d0819b1a0f2ec5f6a\" rel=\"nofollow\">Android<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fapps.microsoft.com%2Fwindows%2Fen-us%2Fapp%2Ftinkerplay%2F00152437-0fbc-445e-a728-7c25a6200e42&amp;esheet=51060010&amp;newsitemid=20150317005304&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Windows&amp;index=5&amp;md5=3a6839b8dcae4c77160e7fbb49fd8598\" rel=\"nofollow\">Windows<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.windowsphone.com%2Fen-us%2Fstore%2Fapp%2Ftinkerplay%2F0cc38b7b-dedd-42ed-a912-04297c997b95&amp;esheet=51060010&amp;newsitemid=20150317005304&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Windows+phones&amp;index=6&amp;md5=fab3f81c1cad6432fdfe3ba0bdaf3430\" rel=\"nofollow\">Windows phones<\/a>\u00a0to better provide users with access on their device of choice.
