Pricing is terrible.

I paid $10 to be able view one model on an iPad, and it turns out if I want to look at that same model on my iPhone I have to pay another $10. Lame. Lame. Lame.
Excellent

Previous reviews claim this app is useless but that is likely because they don't know it's purpose. By itself it is useless but as a viewer of BIMx models created in ArchiCAD it is an amazing!! It allows you to fly through your models easily and on a mobile device, perfect for presenting the project!! Thank you Graphisoft
Very good- room for improvement

This has been a great tool for communicating with clients. I have a few suggestions for future upgrades: My clients tend to find the user interface hard to use at first. It responds too rapidly to user input- you try to move a bit and find yourself on the other side of the building. There are "tricks" to solve this, but this only gives the impression that it's more complicated than it is. The same surface is rendered differently depending on what kind of element it's applied to. I have a model with gypsum board on the walls and a barrel vaulted ceiling and the ceiling is darker than the walls (no, this is not the result of lighting!) It would be great top have access to layers in the iPad app as we do in the desktop version. Navigation in the desktop version is even harder than in the app. Rotating the model is especially difficult. I'd like a grayscale shading option in the app. Clients get bogged down by materials when they view a model. I don't want to create a model without surfaces just for BIMx, I'd like to be able to turn them off and have simple grayscale shading instead.
Awesome BIMx

Unquestionably the best visual aid we use. No shadow definition in models....but wow ....who cares. Thanks Graphisoft !
This app is wonderful for all architects.

Once I used this app for the first time I realized how well it was constructed and how amazing the creators made this app, it is a wonderful way to have downloaded files of homes and buildings for architecture, planning, building, etc. But in all this app has for sure earned from me a great 5 Stars.
