Review summary

Users appreciate the app's ability to remotely view and share Vectorworks designs in 3D, aiding presentations and collaboration. However, common issues include frequent crashes, mandatory subscriptions or accounts to unlock functionality, and the inability to view 2D drawings directly. Overall, while the app offers valuable features for professionals, stability and subscription requirements limit usability for some users.

Cons

App frequently crashes, especially when opening files or using AR features

2024-06-22	he*****	Was ist der Sinn dieser App? Ich dachte ich könnte zumindest einfache Vectorworks Dateien an meinem Handy öffnen und ansehen. Scheinbar funktioniert genau das nicht. Ich kann stattdessen wohl PDFs erzeugen, vorausgesetzt ich schließe ein VW Select Abonnement ab. Sicher, genau das werde ich tun... Noch ein zusätzliches Abo ohne Mehrwert. PDFs kann ich auch in Vectorworks am PC erstellen und dann mit jedem anderen PDF Reader ansehen. Oder liegt es wirklich nur an mir und ich bin zu doof???

2023-07-03	Pa*****	It is amazing to design on Vectorworks and see your design on stage before the set is built. Great product to show director your design and have them walk through the stage seeing all vantage point and sight line issues.

2019-03-23	A *****	Dosen't display 2d drawings, just 3d renders. I guess this is for clients who don't actually need to use a ground plan for anything.

2017-11-19	A *****	It just keeps crashing and I end up in a loop of trying to open a file and getting a message that it has closed.... It would have been SO useful if I could get it to work ☹️

2017-04-20	A *****	It works well for the most part, but the inability to set class visibilities the way you can for design layers feels like a major oversight
