Graphisoft’s BIMx is an interactive app for exploring BIM projects and linked documentation sets created in Archicad and DDScad. Please download to visualize or collaborate on architectural design projects on your mobile device(s). BIMx offers professional building visualization with game-like navigation to explore and visualize architectural projects. BIMx features the ‘BIMx hyper-model’ – allowing non-design professionals to explore and fully understand architectural design intent, view project deliverables, and access element-level BIM data. BIMx links the 3D model with the relevant 2D documentation layouts, providing a seamless way to view the 3D cutaway model in the context of a 2D layout — and vice versa. BIMx connects the construction site with the architect’s office for streamlined collaboration. Real-time model cut-throughs, in-context measuring, and project markups in the model context make BIMx your best on-site BIM companion. Drive the design narrative on the building site for fast, specific client feedback. Features: • Hyperlinked 2D & 3D views with interactive markers • Trace 2D drawings on 3D with animation • Access project and building component-related BIM information • Superfast 2D documentation viewer • Game-like 3D navigation • Gravity & Egress recognition • Option to access a Hyper-model element from outside of the app • Google Cardboard VR support on iPhones • Real-time 3D cutaway • Cut Plane Color Picker • Shading options • Shadow casting • Sun positioning by date and time • Measure in 3D and on 2D layouts • Explore 3D models of any size thanks to the streaming 3D engine • Save Favorites • Create compelling presentations • Print support, PDF export • Keyboard, mouse, and gamepad support BIMx Pro features, available with Graphisoft account-based licensing: • Issue creation – BCF-based documentation revisioning • Hide 3D elements and control Layer visibility in the virtual model • Customizable Cut Plane Explore the BIMx Pro features with the built-in demo model. Joining BIMcloud in Hyper-models published from Teamwork projects unlocks Pro features.

💡✨ ArchiCAD App for iPad Pro M2: Optimization Request 🏗️🔥
10/27/2023

⚐ Chechenia ⚑
ArchiCAD Developers,I kindly request that you consider the possibility of creating an ArchiCAD application optimized for the iPad Pro M2, with its powerful processors. I believe that such a step would significantly enhance ArchiCAD's functionality and make the work of architects and designers more convenient.Using an iPad Pro M2, users would have access to faster and more efficient work with your software. This would be particularly important for on-site work, where mobile devices are increasingly in demand.Many professionals in the fields of architecture and design would be willing to use ArchiCAD on the iPad if a suitable version were available. This could also attract new clients and expand your user base.I hope that you will explore this opportunity and recognize the potential it offers. Your attention to this matter would be highly valuable to professionals working in this industry.Sincerely,Noakhcho.

BIMx problem fixed quickly

I’m happy to report that after I reported a bug with BIMx related to either the new iOS 15 or iPhone 13, the bug was fixed within a week. And the bug was part of a teething problem of the sort you might expect from a major OS release. Thank you, Graphisoft! Good support.This program is INDISPENSABLE in communicating my designs to clients and if you use Archicad you should be using it too.

Hi, thanks for your review. I'm happy to let you know we've already corrected this issue in version 3705, please update the application. Feel free to contact us at bimx@graphisoft.com if any assistance is needed. Best regards, Roland

In all honesty, It is very efficient for the job site. I bring it with me every day it’s nice to quickly pull up a set of documentations. However, the downfall is that no annotations can be made on it. This is something that is needed and then exported to ArchiCAD so I can make revisions they need to implement this to take this to the Perfect companion up for ArchiCAD. One should be able to export the annotation to ArchiCAD, and have the review tool imported.
