Ratings and reviews

BIM 360 is a very useful app I use on a daily basis at work to look at schematics for projects. The one thing I've noticed and find very annoying is the inefficiency of downloading these plans offline. I have found out that after I download plans for a certain project offline, BIM still decides to use my data connection to fetch the plans after they've already been downloaded. For this to be avoided, I must kill/force stop the app process, turn off my data, then open BIM back up in order to have the schematics load immediately. I hope the developers fix this soon. Otherwise this is a very powerful app

Supposed to improve productivity but not the case. Firstly wen Internet connection is bad it only syncs sometimes, other times it fails to sync and all your work has to be redone (on check sheets). Other times when you attempt to open a check sheet or snag it crashes. Now I can not even open the app it crashes instantly. I works fine on apple devises. Maybe you need to invest some more time and effort in your android app because it clearly does not work as it should.

Bug when adding text to a photo taken with Samsung S10 Steps to reproduce: 1. On Samsung S10, create an Issue and take a picture 2. Add a text to the photo using the integrated annotation capability of BIM 360 app 3. The image reduces without any reasons 4. The image is saved as reduced, with large black borders all around. That makes the text annotation tool not usable at all when using this device When tested with another phone with smaller camera resolution, the problem doesn't appear.
