Does the Cricut Explore Air use a rotary blade?

Does Cricut Explore Air work with Design Space?

Yes. Projects are designed and sent to the machine through Cricut Design Space, which supports computers and mobile devices. The Explore Air 2 can also use Design Space offline after projects are downloaded to the device.

What is the difference between Explore Air 2 and Explore 3?

The Explore Air 2 uses a Smart Set dial with preset material categories, while the Explore 3 relies more heavily on software-controlled settings in Design Space. Explore 3 also supports Cricut Smart Materials more directly for matless projects.
