Ratings and reviews

Great way to view models. Only complaint is with gyro/walk through movement - quite terrible actually. Tracking very quickly becomes out of sync between movement and model.

The files are extremely difficult to navigate. There should be a way to go home with the push of a button. There should be a way to view levels with the push of a button. It is too hard to view different levels by zooming in and out. I find myself in the middle of walls frequently. Two stars is generous.

Since I use the full blown professional version of CA. And everyone lives on their stupid little phones, I find this app works extremely well for the Contractor or Client, that is tech savvy. It seems to work even better than the desktop viewer, fast and easy to use. I'm sending this mobile link to all my clients, along with the desktop version. Most of my clients, once they figure it out, just love it. Well done CA!
