Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Available on iOS
Voxel's availability on iOS enables you to be creative on your iPhone or iPad anywhere you please— at the park, on the train, in a meeting. Export options make it easy to sketch out an idea on-the-go and finish it up later in Qubicle or any other desktop voxel editor supporting the .qb format.
Pro Cross-platform
VoxelShop is available for Windows, OS X and Linux.
Pro Free
VoxelShop is Open Source. You can download and use the software for free, but donations are encouraged to support the project.
Pro Great for game-dev
Exported .dae files are optimized to lowest possible amount of polygons. Despite lack of animation support .dae files can be imported to Blender and animated.
Pro Layers
Pro Export to COLLADA
Pro Exports optimized meshes
The export (to DAE files) removes unnecessary geometry, creating an optimized model.
Pro Palettes
Easy to go with a theme.
Pro Textured voxels
Pro Exports to kv6
Helpful for making larger voxels for Doom.
Cons
Con Only for iOS
Very limited audience and use.
Con iPad only
No desktop versions are planned.
Con Website is no longer available.
Con Does not support .obj export format
Con Really buggy
Sometimes it crashes at startup, some large models instantly crash the program, having the mirror function on causes every action to get mirrored (even imports get mirrored).
Con Not easy to export to .qb when there are many models
