AutoCAD 360 3.2.0
The purpose of AutoCAD 360 for iOS is to reduce the number of visits you need to make for a particular construction site, with powerful review and markup tools, as well as everything you need to draw and design something from scratch.
Made by design experts
Of all the CAD tools available on iOS, few can match AutoCAD 360 in terms of form and function. It’s brilliantly crafted by people who obviously know what design is all about, and that translates right into the app’s UI. The visuals really need no introduction this time around.
Edit, draw, work offline, sync
AutoCAD 360 lets you open 2D and 3D DWG drawings uploaded to your online account, as well as download drawing and work offline, then easily upload any changes you made in the interim whenever the Internet connection trickles in again.
You can use its intuitive gesture control to see all aspects of your DWG file, including external references, layers, and image underlays, as well as employ multi-touch zoom and pan to navigate uber projects. It even uses GPS to orient itself in relation to the surroundings
Editing functions include drawing and editing shapes with accuracy, select, move, rotate, and scale, the ability to add and edit text annotations, validating distance measurements inside the drawing, and collaboration features that allow two or more people to share a project and edit it in real time.
Pro subscription plans
As you can imagine, this kind of product is not, by any means, free. Anyone who will pick it up to do some real building will most likely have the subscription taken care of already. Also worth noting is that Autodesk doesn’t advertise any of the paid features as being available for free. And the price is right for this one ($4.99 / €4.49 per month).
AutoCAD 360 Pro subscription plans allow you to get new drawing creation, larger file size support, connectivity to third-party storage, advanced layer management, properties and attributes, block libraries, drawing coordinates, priority support, increased storage space, and new tools.

Bottom Line
Design / UI10
Simply put, the AutoCAD 360 UI is flawless. We may not be CAD experts, but what we can spot is bad design. And this one just shines from every angle. |
Function9
Easy-to-use drawing and drafting app that allows you to view, edit, and share AutoCAD drawings on site. It’s not missing anything vital, and everything that requires a paid account has already been paid for by the user’s existing Autodesk subscription. |
Security9
AutoCad 360 is deeply rooted in a broad range of online services, including cloud storage products and Autodesk’s own network. It’s clearly not airtight, but we also couldn’t find anything suspicious about it. |
Battery7
It’s CAD drawing app. What do you expect? |
Price9
AutoCAD 360 Pro subscription plans go a long way, and the price is right |
Compatibility10
Requires iOS 7 or newer and supports all iDevices natively. Any device running a firmware below iOS 7 wouldn’t handle the GPU workload anyway. |
More than recommended for who’s in the business
