About Polymer: OctoPrint 3D Printing

(Formerly known as OctoClient for OctoPrint.)

Polymer is the simplest way to manage a 3D printer, right from your mobile device. It works with any 3D printer with OctoPrint. You can start and monitor prints from anywhere*, and manage your printer with its advanced controls. It is built to be at home on iOS, sporting a beautiful, intuitive design.

Here's what some users have to say:
– "Works great. Love it. Wouldn’t own a 3D printer without it."
– "Simple, straightforward, works like a charm."
– "Must have for any 3D printer owner!"

Polymer has an optional Pro upgrade that adds multiple printer support and a bunch of extra features.

Extended feature list:
MONITOR YOUR PRINTS

• Live camera streaming: watch your print progress remotely.
• Status monitoring: view the print completion, heater temperatures, time elapsed and estimated time remaining.
• GCODE view (iPad only): follow your printer's moves as the print progresses.

We're updating our privacy policy. (Just kidding :P)

This is a small maintenance release with some minor bug fixes:
- Fixed an image rendering bug
- Fixed an issue where the webcam stream would not load if protected by HTTP Basic Auth (thanks Ben!)
- Small miscellaneous bug fixes and general stability improvements
- Removed Crashlytics by Fabric, a 3rd party crash reporter, because it's no longer needed and with all the data creepiness happening recently I'd rather not have 3rd party closed-source code in the app wherever possible

Also, if you're experiencing a bug where the webcam stream flickers when switching between printers, I'd really appreciate it if you could send me an email to support@octoclient.com with any information on your setup.
