SketchUp Viewer for Android

Quick summary: SketchUp Viewer on Android

SketchUp Viewer is a no-cost Android app that makes it simple to inspect and present 3D designs on a phone or tablet. It provides easy access to models, a familiar touch-driven interface for moving around scenes, and optional AR tools for visualizing models in the real world.

How to access your models

• Pull projects directly from cloud services like Dropbox, Trimble Connect, or 3D Warehouse.
• Use Android’s Storage Access Framework to open files stored in Google Drive and other storage providers.
• Download and open local model files saved on the device for offline review.

Navigation and touch controls

• Zoom in and out smoothly with pinch gestures to focus on details or get a broader view.
• Pan across drawings with two-finger swipes to reposition the scene.
• Rotate the model using orbit gestures for full 3D inspection.

Augmented reality and subscription options

• View your models placed in real environments using AR features (requires an in-app purchase).
• AR functionality is available to users on SketchUp Shop, Pro, and Studio plans once the purchase is activated.
• Use AR to preview scale, context, and placement before sharing or presenting.

Measurement, layers, and visual adjustments

• Take precise measurements inside the app to verify dimensions on the fly.
• Toggle visibility of layers to isolate parts of a model or declutter the view.
• Choose from different visual styles and shading options to change the model’s appearance.

Device compatibility and requirements

• Compatible with Android devices running Marshmallow (6.0) or later.
• Performance may vary depending on device capabilities; modern hardware will provide the best responsiveness and AR experience.
