I havent tried out the updated version. But from the experience from the intial one,its a good application very handy when you are away from the offic

I'm happy that Autodesk released this for Android at all, and it works great on my Xoom, but why on earth can't you just release a mobile version of Design Review? All I need is the ability to load DWFs on my mobile device to be carried out in the field where I can view and mark them up. Having to use DWG means I have to bind all XREFs and go through a lot of hassle, and uploading stuff to the cloud is not the best way to do things. Just do a Design Review mobile that can open local copies of files.

Works as described, motorola xoom. Would prefer to access files locally rather than uploading to autodesk servers, not sure of the reason for that but it degrades the experience. Autodesk servers are waaay to slow. Needs change log whenever updates are available.

I don't really understand all of the negative feedback, other than the people with individual phone issues. This app does exactly what is states. It is great for reviewing .dwg's in native format. It can use some tweaking, just like every other app I have tried, but is only been out for a week....

So we have this great DWG markup tool but we can't login to view files stored on our device if we're not by a wifi access point! Doesn't work AT ALL for site surveying, which seems to be the most logical purpose for an app like this.

you have to upload file if you want to open it, always. in my opinion this is big disadvantage. I would like to have simple, offline viewer, without uploading anything. "Offline viewer" = fullstars despite that, app works great!

What can you say, its AutoCAD....on a cell phone! Not the best way to view or edit a drawing but in a pinch it can save the day. I'm sure it's great on a tablet. You do need a FREE account, there is no subscription as some one else stated. It is true that you can only open files that were uploaded to your account, which is annoying. Wish you could open files from the SD card.

Thanks Autodesk! This is really an amazing application. The fact that you can do so much with your DWGs on a table and a phone - GREAT! Using on my Droid 2 Global and XOOM

This runs perfectly on my Samsung Galaxy S I-9000. Account signup was simple, easy to get the dwg's onto the phone. Used it out on site and saved me dragging around an arm full of drawings.
