Crashes and never opens

Have reinstalled several times with the latest iOS and in crashes upon opening always

Aufmaß

Für ein 3D Aufmaß mit einem iPhone mit LiDAR Scanner sehr praktisch und tatsächlich fast nur dafür von mir verwendet.
Stabilität könnte etwas verbessert werden.

Problème MAJ iPadOS 26.5

Depuis la MAJ démon iPad vers 26.5, la.application se lance, reste sur un écran noir, puis quitte…
Pas pratique.
A quand une MAJ ?

Unstable

The previous version wasn’t great, but at least could complete a project/scan. With updated iOS on 17 Pro, I have not been able to complete any modeling method without the software closing midway through capture.

App stürzt ab nach letzten Update

6 Tage her: Wann wird es die Korrektur kommen?

そもそも開かない

対策をしていただきたく。期待値込めて5にしています

Can’t sign up or sign in

Like the title says. None of the buttons that would start that process work. Can only use demo mode.

Really helpful in the right moment

I don’t use this app too often, but when I want to show a Vectorworks model to a non—Vectorworks user it’s super useful.

Nicht zu gebrauchen

Stürzt ständig ab, daher nicht zu gebrauchen

Unable to log in

The sign in button does nothing. I tried multiple different ways, tried reinstalling the app. It just wouldn’t let me sign in 🤷

Can’t sign in. Unusable app.

As above.,

Much has changed

This app has changed significantly over the past view years. While I still can’t open a VWX file, I can do a number of things related to capturing existing conditions while on site. There are so many options including photos to 3D and Room Plan. And let’s be real, why would I open a full Vectorworks file on my phone or iPad mini? I don’t need all that.

While I haven’t had a use of the 3D viewer just yet, I can myself pulling this up to have a quick conversation with a client when at a lunch meeting. I’m waiting for support of review/markups that I can send back to Vectorworks much like what I can do on the cloud web portal. That will make this app even more useful.

Response from developer

As of September 2016, everyone is allowed to register for a free non-subscription account to use Vectorworks Cloud Services. Although, the cloud rendering-specific capabilities are only available to Vectorworks Service Select subscribers.

Please add a .vwx viewer

This is an app that should not exist😭Hard to believe there is not a vwx viewer and harder to believe that time was wasted on AR capture that doesn’t work and crashes a brand new 2024 iPad Pro, and a very inaccurate room measurement AR tool and 3D generator that looks cool like a video game and sort of works but is pretty useless for actual architecture work.

Some of the other features like being able to import and view crude walkthroughs and models and move around are nice but generally this app does not deserve the Vectorworks name.

Crash and Burn

This used to be great now it just crashes and never will open!

Kein Mehrwert erkennbar

Leider sehe ich in dieser Anwendung keinen Mehrwert als Vectorworksnutzer. Man kann nur umständlich PDFs erzeugen und ansehen. Nötiger wäre ein vwx-Viewer, so wie das bei anderen CAT-Anwendungen bereits etabliert ist. Schade.

Impressive

I can believe how accurate this app scanned 90m2 flat floor plan… the import process and how easy you can work with the data is impressive to say the least.

Some of the features in the app doesn’t work but I think that will get fixed with time

This app will sort you out for indoor survey without a doubt …

Doesn’t work

Was great when it worked, now just crashes all the time. I can’t even open it.

App crashes right when opening

iPhone 15 pro, iOS 17.1.2
This is also the first time I the iPad Pro that all the cloud drives are disconnected except Dropbox. It won’t allow me to add them back either. I love this app, please don’t die Nomad.

What’s the point?

It’s a vectorworks app that can’t open vectorworks files. It’s completely useless.

If I were Vectorworks I’d be ashamed of this

It’s a Vectorworks app that can’t open a Vectorworks file! So any notes I add will be on a .pdf file, not in my .vwx file! So I need two different files because I went to the job site to check a measurement? I can already mark up pdf files on my iPad with other apps, more elegantly and with less effort than this! If i’m showing a project in 3D, I’ll use my portable computer in vwx. Not with this. A problem in search of a solution showing a real lack of understanding by the devs. This should open .vwx files, at least simple ones, and let me do field editing when checking dimensions etc. It could create a .nomad layer or something so I could not mess anything up, but could use my edits once the file was on my computer.
