Major update of mobile app

 

Improvement

 

 

Our new mobile app has been powered up with new 2D and 3D functions. We believe this version really puts the Bimsync app on the map. The app is available for download from Appstore and Google Play with these updates:

2D view:

  • New 2D issue marker with colour modes showing status, type and due date. Issue markers are larger (three size options) and easier to select.
  • Improved zoom and pan and new rotate function.
  • Title and number of issue shows when selected.
  • New 3D menu for accessing the 3D model with choice of whole model, whole storey, vertical section through all storeys of the model or just a single room.

3D view and navigation:

  • Massive performance improvements when uploading models.
  • Joystick with adjustable speed for improved navigation.
  • Multiselect allowing selection of many objects (for example to hide several objects in one action).
