eDrawings Pro App Reviews

Need to fix this now. Until then this app is useless. When I try to open a file nothing comes up blank screen. Also changes file from .dwg to .eprt when viewed. PLEASE FIX SOON

I needed to open some .sldprt and .sldasm files from my email when out at a business presentation, so quickly bought the limited version of this product. The mail client on my iPad offered to open the files in eDrawings, which was a good sign. Unfortunately, when eDrawings opened, all I saw was a blank interface with no part showing. The top of the screen showed a nearly accurate but not quite file name - partname.epart, rather than partname.sldprt. Im not sure if the software was supposed to convert it, or if it merely is so broken that it was trying to access an incorrect filename. In short, I bought it to display .sldprt and .sldasm files, and assumed that if it was made by the same company that Id be fine. Sadly, that wasnt the case.

I cant get it to open any files from my network drive. They download fine into the app but all that is there is a blank screen when I go to open the file. Parts, assemblies, drawings,.....nothing opens...

Application completely broken after upgrading to IOS 6. Do not upgrade if you depend on this app.

Will not open files opened from Dropbox or other locations. App opens up with a blank page.

Couldnt view an assembly in the Pro version that I could view in the standard Edrawings. Can only view a .prt or drawing file in the pro version. Im a registered user of SW 2008.

Would be a useful program except for one thing, I cant get files into the library. It looks like perhaps they forgot to put that segment into the program. The few sample drawings are fun to play with, but I function beyond that is useless.

Love most things about this program, I have never had any problems opening up any file, or assembly. New features and benefits are frequently updated. Features that I am still looking for include: - Incorporate real view graphics - Ability to move/adjust parts within an assembly - Zoom in and out while maintaining X and Y orientation - Ability to store files in folders

Completely unusable. Non-stop crashing with any of my parts, assemblies, or drawings. It crashes so frequently and so badly that I can not even tell what the issues are. Very bad disappointment from a major vendor. This had great potential for showing projects to supervisors, other researches, clients, etc, but the software is just not ready. It is so disfunctional , I do not even know how to tell them what needs to be improved.

I purchased this app for the iPad and cant figure out how to open a file. There is absolutely NO context sensitive help or any help menu available. For the record, i am no beginner here, ive been a solidworks user since 1997 and know this program and its edrawings viewer very well but just no way of knowing how it works. Dont bother buying it, just save yourself the frustration and wait till you are at your desktop.

No problems at all this app works perfect on the i5. Happy as can be with this purchase...

Crashes within 1 min of using every time I open it, I am using iPhone 5 iOS 6.0.2

Awesome BUT! Using a iPad 2 i imported my e-drawings into the library and my ipad it self Has plenty of space on it, but the app is warning me that the memory for the app its self is low? Why

Heres something hopefully anyone thinking of buying the app will find helpful. The app works as advertised. The only problem is because of iPad (or iPhone)s hardware, theres a limit to the size of the assembly you can view. The loader you see in the sample pictures above is the loader that comes as a sample on the app. It is built with 60 or so parts. The app runs fine. You can fly the CAD nicely. However, I cant load my assembly which has probably 200 parts or more. The app claims low memory. So just bear that in mind when youre looking to buy this app. If you dont huge assemblies or just need to view parts, then this app works great.

Waste of money if you are trying to view assembly files. Will not open files larger than 3mb

I give it 4 stars because its not user friendly. I had to do several searches and watch some videos just to find out you need to email the file to yourself or download it from some where. Now that I get it, its a nice program.

I was able to view the sample drawings but when I went into iTunes and added my own the app no longer opens. I removed the files, reinstalled the app, even restored my iPad but the app just wont work. I want my money back, dont waste your money on this app. Im ready to just switch to auto desk, at least their app works. New app update, now the app opens and works with the demo drawings but as soon as you add any of your files the app crashes immediately With the newest update, I can now open a couple of my simple parts, but anything complex and it crashes immediately. Still a 1 star review

Dont waste your money. All the app does is allow you to look at the samples. And crashes. I repeat strongly, do not waste your money.

As an avid solidworks user I was excited to buy this app and try it. However, The program crashes or locks up constantly. Dont waste your money. I would like to have my money back until this app actually works. Good idea, bad follow through!

Does not function as advertised. The "save file" function is inoperable because it does not exist. Do not purchase until significant bug fixes are made.
