*2024-02-29*

eDrawings Pro still crashing. Does the latest iPad version go hand in hand with the WIN version that was released on 27 February 2024? My WINDOWS Laptop was crashing prior to installing the 27 February 2024 release. Now if you could get the iPad version stable I would be extremely grateful.

Update December 2025- just purchased a new iPad Pro with M5 processor, 256Gb. Had high hopes this app would finally work without crashing. Well it still doesn’t work. You ought to just remove it from the app stop before disappointing more people. I’d like to help you fix it if you’re interested.

Update February 2026. Still not usable. What’s ironic is I can open my 500Mb step files with the free 3D PDF Reader app from Tech Soft 3D. I also have a paid eDrawings Pro W11 that it opens with as well. Please fix this or remove it from the App Store.

### 1/5 — Saçma

*2025-12-08, version 33.4.0038*

Android uygulamada 15-16₺ ios da 500 küsür amaç nedir ? İphone kullanan zaten zengindir yaslayın gitsin mi ?

### 1/5 — Edrawings pro fall down

*2025-12-02, version 33.4.0038*

When I open a file which is bigger than 10Mb than instantly close app. Please check it and fix it.

### 1/5 — Basically Useless

*2025-11-20*

I’m not sure how this app is considered a “Pro” app. All I wanted to be able to do was to open Solidworks assemblies and be able to take measurements from surfaces of different components. It appears this app cannot even handle that simple task. There is a measurement tool, but it is nearly impossible to use. I also don’t see any settings menu. Where am I supposed to change the units of measurement? Sorry, but this is not worth the money for me.

我很喜欢贵司的产品，我也都是买贵司的正版产品，但你们好像不太重视你们忠实的粉丝，我每次打开cad文件都显示乱码，这样我很是烦恼，无奈之举，来这里评论

### 5/5 — Gute Alternative zur Desktopversion

*2022-07-13*

Wer die Desktopversion kennt, wird hier alle wesentlichen Bestandteile wiederfinden. Tolle App, um zwischendurch oder auch unterwegs Konstruktionsdaten zu besprechen.

### 5/5 — Perfecto pero…

*2022-05-31, version 30.1.33*

Por favor, ruego que añadan los estados de visualización y el movimiento de componentes, es lo único que le falta a la app para que merezca la pena descargársela. Estamos intentando implantarla en nuestra empresa y es imprescindible las dos herramientas que he comentado. Arréglenlo por favor se lo ruego.

### 5/5 — Crashes out upon launch

*2019-12-16*

I bought this app almost two years back and was working well until recently when I updated it a week back. I request the developer to send me the older version which would work well on my device - iPhone 5SE

Thank you for releasing the updated application, and it solved my problem. Now the application is not crashing out like it was doing earlier. Thank you!!
