Grid Snap Plus earns its place for focusing on one specific job: giving each axis its own snap increment. If your work leans on tiling or voxel grids, that per-axis control plus the Ticks and Grid display options is the draw.
Grid Snap Plus is an add-on from 3D Mage that adds finer control over grid snapping in Blender. Its main purpose is to let you set separate custom snap increments for the X, Y, and Z axes, so grids no longer have to be square. Alongside that, it bundles a set of quality-of-life improvements for grid-based snapping, and it's aimed at tiling and voxel-based projects.
You can define separate X, Y, and Z intervals for non-square snapping, and those increments stay constant regardless of zoom level in both perspective and orthographic views. Preset values speed up setup, and you can snap relative to a selected object or geometry, an object's origin, or the world origin. Two display options, Ticks and Grid, appear while moving an object or geometry, and the add-on uses Blender's default shortcuts for locking movement along a plane or axis.
Grid Snap Plus works with Blender versions 4.5 through 5.1 and is released under the GPL license. An August 2025 update fixed a bug where the snapping button did not sync with the Grid Snap ON/OFF button after reopening a Blender file. It's listed as free here.
Grid Snap Plus is best for blender artists working on tiling or voxel-based projects who need non-square grid snapping with separate X, Y, and Z increments.
Grid Snap Plus is completely free to download and use.
Grid Snap Plus lists compatibility with Blender versions 4.5 through 5.1 and is marked as Blender Extension compatible, so it fits recent releases in that range. If you're on a version inside that window, it should install as a standard add-on. For anything outside 4.5 to 5.1, or to confirm behaviour on a specific build, check the developer's page, since compatibility beyond the stated range isn't documented here. Its extension type is listed as an add-on.
Grid Snap Plus is released under the GPL license, which covers how the code can be used, modified, and redistributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. If licensing matters for your project or studio, review the current details on the developer's page before relying on them, since terms can change over time. The add-on is also noted as a Dev Fund contributor, so a portion supports Blender development.
Grid Snap Plus is listed as free in this catalog, so you can add it without a purchase here. Pricing and licensing can change, though, so it's worth confirming the current terms on the developer's page before you rely on that. The add-on is released under the GPL license, which governs how it can be used and shared. For the latest on availability and any conditions, the developer's page is the place to check.
Grid Snap Plus lets you set separate X, Y, and Z intervals, so you can snap to a non-square grid rather than a single uniform spacing. It also offers preset values for quick setup, such as 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 or 2 × 2 × 2. Those increments stay constant regardless of zoom level in both perspective and orthographic views, and you can snap relative to a selected object or geometry, an object's origin, or the world origin.
Grid Snap Plus received an update in August 2025 that fixed a minor bug where the snapping button did not sync with the Grid Snap ON/OFF button after reopening a Blender file. In practice that means the toggle state lines up correctly when you return to a saved project. That's the change recorded for that release, and for any later updates the developer's page and change log are where new entries would appear.
