Simply frustrating to use

The iPad Pro theoretically should be powerful enough to do so much more. However, after using AutoCAD for iPad, truly this was an afterthought. It’s so frustrating to use.i figured I would use a keyboard and mouse and hope the experience would be better, but no. It should just be used as a viewer and that’s it.

So sick of 2 form authentication

I need to remember a username, password and receive a text message to just to check that yup that wall dimension is 16’10” there are much lighter and faster CAD viewers, now if you want to draw a whole assed house I guess this might be better…

Optional

So getting into the drawings are fun, but when it comes to color shaping i feel its hard for my stylus to capture the stuff at hand. I feel that this makes life easier working remotely and having time to roam and play cad drawing when i can or on the move.

No sirve como Editor

¡Cuidado! Quieres un visualizador de DWG adelante (Sin pagar suscripción). Pero para editar es malísimo, no es ni básico, mucho menos profesional. No puedes copiar dibujo de un archivo a otro (olvídate de tus plantillas, o de reciclar dibujos anteriores); No existen las funciones tan básicas como: “Stretch” ó “Copy Basepoint”… simplemente esto no es AutoCAD, es una herramienta incompleta, y aun así tienen el descaro de cobrar suscripción.

Backwards and unintuitive if you use CAD on a computer

This program is backward in the controls in most things I tried. It’s almost like the group who designed this never talked to the people who make the real AutoCAD software. Totally unintuitive, and a waste of time.

When I modify a .dwg file opened via “Files App”, its changes are not saved to the original file. Instead, a file of same name with “-1” suffix appears on the recent list on AutoCAD, which however, doesn’t open. So, all the changes are gone.

★★★☆☆ United States · v6.10.0 · 11 Sept 2023

Close, but still very lacking for the price.

This is a great step in the right direction, you can draw most simple objects with the same desktop commands, however, there are a lot of features that just simply don’t work in this version. Dimensions being one of them, there is no way to scale dimensions once a drawing is created, what they are is what you get, might be fine for small designs. But if your drawing is large the dimensions will likely be tiny. Exporting is also made intentionally difficult. I’ve been fighting through this for 2 years now, I’ll likely be moving on.

Question about support

Now that 2024 AutoCAD for Mac is native Apple Silicon compatible and the iPad Pro has the same M2 SoC as the Macs, will you port the full version of AutoCAD to the iPad. Both the M1 and M2 iPads have 8GB or 16GB of unified memory and can use up to 16GB of virtual memory swap.

Hello. Autodesk

When are we going to be able to do basic functions like. HATCHING, input from a keyboard, many people would like to use this app on the go? I know this is a mobile app. How many years until basic AutoCAD features will be added? Seems like it’s taking a long time. Allot of bug fixes - but what we need it for functionality. I would have to believe that most users would want at a minimum LT version of AutoCad features on this mobile app. Help Autodesk - explain why its taking so long to do something you already have had for over 30 years on IOS and Windows.

HOW do I adjust scaling for dims viewing?

Since I’ve only just started using AutoDesk’s CAD for iphone, I’ll rate this around half, a little less than satisfied. I can probably use it more because I took an engineering course in vocational college, but I can’t ask them for help, they’re closed. I’m using auto CAD for mechanical drawings ONLY, with one project measured out mostly in inches averaging less than a foot in length. But the default settings seem meant for architectural, with the viewing window in THOUSANDS of units. So when I apply a dimension measurement, the text isn’t visible (because its offscreen) until I zoom out the viewing window to the point where I can’t see the drive gear I’m measuring! Also, I’d prefer to get notations in fractional inches if I can, but I found a conversion chart for that.

ACAD is running so slowly that it’s almost unusable in the latest version. (It’s slow on my pre-M1 iPad pro, at least) So slow you can watch the drawing routines execute on the screen as the app slogs through them! Old workflow: use ACAD directly on the iPad to enter site data. New workflow: write data by hand on paper and enter it on a portable computer that runs fast and has functions like trim/extend for speedy drawing. Output pdf back to iPad, do concept development in another app. Something’s broken.
