What's New in SketchUp

8.2.1

June 1, 2026

Here’s what's new in SketchUp for iPad v8.2.1 We’ve resolved user reported issues with the newly redesigned measurements box, and fixed several bugs around app stability. Bug Fixes • Removed Apple Pencil scribble inputs in the measurements box after it caused issues selecting and editing values. This returns measurement editing to its previous behavior with the Apple Pencil • Resolved a bug that prevented semicolons from being recognized properly in the measurements box for regions using semicolon numerical separators • Resolved a bug that prevented commas from being recognized properly in the measurements box for regions using commas as decimal separators • Fixed a crash affecting models with unused materials that occurred after saving. While saves were successful, subsequent crashes could happen at any time. We hope these fixes help to stabilize and improve your modeling experience! Your feedback is invaluable, so please keep sharing your thoughts and suggestions on our community forum. http://forums.sketchup.com/c/SketchUp-for-iPad/

iPad tutorial incorrect

The tutorial for the iPad looks nothing like the screen

Free user has no options

This software is purely to be purchased. The free use site does not work, with numerous errors. Just don’t give any access to tease customers, incredibly frustrating experience. I just uninstalled it.

There are better architecture apps

I can’t do anything when I open the app. It looks like you need to pay for the extra features to actually do anything

Improvments needed

I should be able to work between my ipad and PC with an easy flow.

Frustrating. Can’t get out of editing a group

This app seems to work pretty well upon first trying it, but it is very frustrating if you have a group and you want to edit the group. It won’t get out of the editing mode. It will not work. Every time I edit a group, I have to close the app and open it again if I want to stop the editing mode. I have tried every option that is available. I have researched through AI. Double tapping outside of the editing area, single tapping outside of the editing area, etc. I’m using it on iPad. And it’s making me crazy. Extraordinarily frustrating.
