User Reviews

User reviews repeatedly cite reliability and workflow issues (crashes, memory errors, import/export problems) as the top negatives, along with a subpar UI. Despite these drawbacks, many praise the app as a strong client-facing tool that clearly presents simple models and keeps clients updated, and they note ongoing improvements and potential for more features.

Pros

Helps present the project to clients and keep them updated, especially during big-screen walkthroughs.
Clearly portrays simple models in a way that aids client understanding of the design concept.
The app has improved significantly over time, with ongoing improvements noted by users.
Users see potential for more capabilities and features in future updates.

Cons

Frequent crashes and instability; the app often won’t open or crashes during use.
Memory-related errors that prevent loading or opening the app on devices.
Difficulties importing or uploading files from cloud services (Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive) and other external sources, with various error messages.
Inability to save, export, or download work to a local device, leading to lost or inaccessible data.
Poor user interface and a steep learning curve, described by some as not up to the standards of Chief Architect products.

Nothing I can do launches the drawing my architect created. Just a dead end do loop of nothingness. Very annoying that it worked fine for months and then suddenly can’t launch my plans.

Great bonus item for clients to move through once we have done a review of their project on the big screen. It does take some learning to understand how the app works, like turning on the shadows and the surfaces. The main purpose of Chief Architect is producing the final product which is the layout plan set. This is simply an additional way for clients to see their project as it was last rendered. We use it often. I spend a little time with my clients to acclimate to using this ‘bonus’ app. Generally good feedback.
