Orca Slicer

OrcaSlicer on Android phones and tablets: the same slicing engine and the same features as the desktop app, with a native touch interface.

What this is This is not a "mobile companion" with a subset of features. It is built from OrcaSlicer's own source code:

Same engine. libslic3r is built unchanged from upstream, so you get the same slicing, the same profiles and the same G-code as the desktop version. Same logic. The behaviour of the desktop GUI (plates, gizmos, painting, settings tabs, presets, calibration, the G-code viewer, printer connections) is not rewritten. It is compiled from upstream's src/slic3r/GUI sources, together with functions extracted from them at build time. Native interface. The screens are a native Android app (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose) that follows the desktop layout: Prepare, Preview, Device, Project, every dialog and every gizmo, adapted for touch. It does not use wxWidgets or Qt. Made for touch. Tap, drag and long-press (right click) work in the 3D view. Two fingers pinch to zoom, move to pan and twist to rotate. The Android back button closes dialogs. Phones and tablets. Tablets get the desktop layout; phones get a compact one. Android integration. Files open and save through the system file picker, so Google Drive and other providers work. The 3D view renders with OpenGL ES 3, web pages use the system WebView, and the theme and the language follow the system. In a headset: OrcaSlicer XR runs OrcaSlicer on Meta Quest 3.
