## Review summary

Creo View Mobile mainly serves as a basic PVZ viewer. Users value PVZ viewing and cloud/email access but face major limits: PVZ compatibility gaps, no measurements, no layer control, and inconvenient file import/save. They request more features (measurements, hide/show parts, section cuts, color changes, saving) and broader format support (Creo Parametric, Dropbox). Overall, it feels like an early-stage viewer rather than a full design tool.

### Pros

- PVZ viewing capability: the app can view PVZ files and their views
- Opens Creo View files from cloud sharing apps or email attachments
- Decent baseline PVZ viewer for basic viewing needs

### Cons

- PVZ compatibility issues: some reviews report PVZ files won't open or PVZ formats not recognized when opened from email
- No measurement tool or measurement capabilities
- No layer control: cannot hide/show parts or manage visibility
- Difficult to import/add files and save: requires iTunes, no Files folder, and saving from the device is not straightforward
- Limited model/format support: only certain models are viewable and Creo Parametric formats are not yet supported
