How to Use Cricut Design Space in 2024 on iPad or iPhone! (Cricut Kickoff Lesson 3)

[@paperpiecesandleftovers2766]

I have been using my cricut for 20 years, I still have my HP Imagine which i love. But that being said I love you and your content. I get asked to do videos for cricut by my followers and I send them your way and tell them to subscribe as you already cover everything and more. Thank you for being wonderful and so accessible to everyone. Much love from a fellow crafter

[@JenniferMaker]

Thank you so very much for being here with me, I so appreciate your support!

[@taracameron9153]

I was without my laptop due to a broken screen just before Christmas as I was trying to do my gifts so I had to use my iPad. It worked great for me. I noticed a few things that couldn’t be done and finding some of the features took time to find but otherwise I was lucky. I always use Bluetooth and have been ok with both laptop and iPad. Probably should knock on wood when I say that. lol. Thanks so much for all your hard work and keeping things updated. I did a session with someone else and all the info was so old that some design space features haven’t been around at least 1 year. It was all stuff I’d already learned from you but would be confusing to new people. You are my main source as I know it’s updated.

[@christinesmutek3856]

Hi Jennifer. I’m a total cricut newbie. I followed all your instructions and did pretty well. I had some card stock but didn’t realise it was sticker cardstock. lol. So I’m off to the craft store to spend some pennies. I want to make a birthday card for hubby on 6 Jan. thanks for the tutorials. I learned a lot. Head boggled a little bit but I’ll keep playing and learning. 😅

[@MsSadie_says]

Howdy ~ Thank You @JenniferMaker for this awesome, helpful and indepth tutorial! I am FINALLY getting around to unbox and use my CM3 that i had for 2 years; Go figure just afraid to use without knowing how. Found you and helpful youTube vids and forced myself to LEARN my machine. Glad I did. Super excited about making my own certificate, but was able to create a 'homemade' card that made for each of my family members with the scraps! They LOVED it and I Appreciate You and channel! Inspiring and motivating to this newbie crafter! 🥰🤗 You and your family have a Great and blessed Holidays!

I am mainly interested in making barn quilt welcome signs and want to learn how to make welcome stencils using my iPad. Do you have a tutorial that would be helpful? 2:07:25

We have different methods for using stencils. Here are a few. jennifermaker.com/reusable-stencil-with-cricut/ jennifermaker.com/vinyl-stencils-painted-wood-signs/

Hi @Jennifer Maker thank you so much for all this amazing learning ! I am rewatching this video and noticed you are using a mouse with your iPad. Did I see/hear that correctly? If so, I will need to investigate since I don’t have a laptop or desktop and think it could be super helpful

[@JenniferMaker]

No, not with the iPad.

I really enjoyed your video, but I have a question… on my iPad canvas I started a beginner project and I successfully completed it, but how do I get a new canvas? I want to start a new project but at the top it still says tumbler, how do I get a clean untitled canvas on my iPad I couldn’t find anything to click.

[@JenniferMaker]

Look for the circle with the + sign in it. It says New under it. That will bring up a new canvas.

Hi Jennifer! I’ve recently bought a Cricut Maker 3 & am trying to follow the instructions in your Kickstart Lesson 3 for iPads, but I’m having a problem with the attach option which is greyed & therefore not working. Additionally, I don’t seem to even have a detach option, unless that’s an option that will become available when I use the attach option…should I ever figure out how to get that to work. Can you help me? I’m really loving your tutorials! I think I would’ve just thrown up my hands in frustration & returned the machine had I not found you! Thank you for them & thank you in advance for your help with the attach/detach thingy.❤

Good Afternoon Jennifer. I have been watching the IPad and I phone session for the last 2+ hours and a call came in on my phone and cut me out of the final few minutes of the class. This was after all the Q&A. How can I get the bonus word now. Is it the same for all classes today. Maybe I can watch another class

With a older iPhone the Cricut app pops up that your iOS isn’t compatible anymore. Kinda stinks. I guess I need to upgrade my iPhone 😢

[@joesandy1822]

I’m totally new to Cricut and Design Space, so maybe this is a dumb question. But couldn’t both the front and back of the card be cut and printed on one mat at the same time? I’m using a Maker. Thank you.

[@JenniferMaker]

Not if you have to flip the card over to write on it if I am understanding what you are saying. You can go to jennifermaker.com and search for cards. Here is one tutorial of the many cards that we have. jennifermaker.com/cricut-cards/

HI! Do you know of a software like Cricut that will let you slice fonts but will let you save your project as svg? Thank you!

[@JenniferMaker]

You might want to consider using professional illustration software like Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape. Both of these programs allow you to slice fonts and save your projects as SVG files.

How do I retrieve my saved projects from the cloud after it’s saved?

[@JenniferMaker]

To retrieve your saved Cricut Design Space projects from the cloud, open the Design Space app, navigate to the "My Projects" section, where you can see a list of all your saved projects stored in the cloud; simply click on the project you want to open and start editing it on the canvas.

Can I make a sticker sheet with a background in the Design Space on my iPad?

[@JenniferMaker]

Yes, you can, jennifermaker.com/how-to-make-stickers-with-cricut/

[@F_NerdShark]

I just got my cricut for Christmas and was so excited to use it, the start was very beginner friendly, but then the editing and printing process is so complicated it hurts my brain 😭 I made text and it had me choose the material and it cut fine, but when I upload an image and click “make it” it doesn’t have me choose my method or my materials it just kind of demands that I calibrate it, even though I wanted to make a sticker :( What’s wrong here?? The image btw says print and then cut, but I don’t know how to do that? I thought it would walk me through but it’s more like it led me to a completely different room and is just assuming I know what the room is

[@JenniferMaker]

I would suggest to finish Cricut Kickoff and the move on to other things. makeracademy.com/cricutkickoff/ Here are some print then cut tutorials. jennifermaker.com/print-cut-cricut-transfer-tshirts/ jennifermaker.com/how-to-use-printable-vinyl-with-cricut/

[@Gemagianni22]

I cannot figure out how to switch to Beta on an iPad. Can you please help?

[@JenniferMaker]

To switch to the beta version of Cricut Design Space on an iPad, you can do the following: Open the Design Space menu Select Settings Under Application Experience, select Beta Click Done The app will automatically restart and install the beta version. You can verify that you're in beta mode by going back to Settings > Application Experience and checking that Beta is selected. Beta users get to try out new features before they're available to the general public. However, the beta version may still have some glitches or problems. If you encounter bugs, you can submit a bug report. To switch back to the live version, you can follow the same steps in reverse.

When you say desk top, do you also mean lap top?

[@barbaraberkman8439]

I loaded the cricut onto my IPad, but when I try to go to images, it tells me there was a problem, and check my internet connection. Try again. My internet connection is fine, and I don’t know how to correct this issue. I have paid for access, and I can’t do anything if I can select images, fonts, phrases. What can I do? Thank you.

[@JenniferMaker]

It sounds like you're experiencing some connectivity issues with the Cricut Design Space app on your iPad. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue: Close the Cricut Design Space app completely and then reopen it. Sometimes, simply restarting the app can resolve connectivity issues. Ensure that both your iPad's operating system and the Cricut Design Space app are up to date. Go to the App Store, search for Cricut Design Space, and see if there are any updates available. Uninstall the Cricut Design Space app from your iPad and then reinstall it from the App Store. This can sometimes resolve issues related to corrupted files or settings. Make sure the app has the necessary permissions to access the internet. Go to your iPad's settings, find the Cricut Design Space app, and ensure that it has permission to use Wi-Fi and cellular data. If none of the above steps work, you may need to contact Cricut Support for further assistance. They can provide more specific troubleshooting steps and help resolve any account-related issues.

Thank you for exposing this. I have seen the ads in the sidebars in social media sites, but not paid much attention to them. This was my first time I have seen one of the ad videos. --Just FYI for anybody who considered these, a lot of naturally occurring minerals break apart when exposed to heat. This can be due to thermal shock, stress fractures, or inclusions like air bubbles trapped in the stone. --Another red flag was the phrase "mineral crystal DESIGN" used in the ad. That's a signal that it's not natural stone, but something designed to LOOK LIKE it. Critical thinking can be your greatest protection.
