Lacking Mark Up Abilities
Dec 5

Tx allergies
Bluebeam on Desktop is amazing and has transformed how I operate. However on iOS, it is barely distinguishable from built in Preview PDF viewers, and has less function than Adobe. The mark up feature for field use I thought would be a great benefit but is unusable. You can barely manipulate your mark ups. The pdf will go blank when inserting a simple call out. This is using a M4 iPad Pro so the device is not the issue. It may be that Microsoft Surface in the field is a better device to use desktop in the Bluebeam in the field but this has been extremely disappointing and not reliable for punch lists or field quality control.

Hi Tx allergies! Adding a callout should not cause the PDF to go blank. We want to get to the bottom of this. Please reach out to support@bluebeam.com so our team can investigate and help get this corrected. Thanks for the review.

iOS App Improvements

Bluebeam Cloud, used on a computer, is great. You can create projects, upload and share drawings, upload and share documents, create submittal logs, generate RFI’s, and create punch list items. However, when you upload items under the documents tab they aren’t accessible from the iOS app. It appears that the only functions available from the iOS app are the drawings, submittal log, and punch list. Adding a function to the iOS app to allow you to access the items uploaded under the documents tab would make this a much better app. I’m not sure why this is. You can use a browser on your iPad to log into the cloud and access the items under the documents tab but the markup features for the drawings, the RFI’s, and punch list all work better from the app. So your stuck using the browser half the time to access documents and using the app to generate markups on drawings, create RFI’s, and punch list items the other half of time. Hopefully they allow access to the documents through the app in a future roll out. It would change my rating for the app to 5 stars. Also, it would be nice to be able to attach/upload the actual submittal document to the corresponding entry in the submittal log so that it could be viewed from there. This app has potential but needs some work.

Extremely Lacking
06/24/2023

An actual real review!
We have two primary general contractors who do work for us. One uses Bluebeam Studio and one uses a competitor. Due to extreme lack of functionality, such as even having the ability to view drawings and information from Studio projects on a mobile device, it makes it extremely difficult to just quickly look something up from a phone. I have to VPN to my office, Remote Desktop to my desktop computer, log into Studio, and from there I can finally see things. The competitor that the other contractor uses has an extremely straightforward mobile app where you can see the drawings and other project data and even make markups on your own revision of a document and share them! I don’t see how Bluebeam isn’t keeping up with the times. It’s pretty frustrating.

They’ve taken their formerly terrible app and ruined it in different ways

There is now no way to even navigate a document via bookmarks or labeled pages. I can use the three dots to show pages but they are only numbered 1-xxx, even though everything has already been labeled in the desktop program. Should this not carry across to the app? What was formerly a frustrating waste of time. (Bluebeam Vu) to use has been newly formed into a different waste of time with this new app. Hopefully the developers and people who decide how to structure a multi-platform app can see how frustratingly useless this is.

Developer Response
Thanks for your feedback. We know there’s still more work to do on mobile, and our focus now is on making PDFs and Studio the foundation for how people work and collaborate. If you don't use Studio, you can now open local files and work offline, and we’re continuing to add familiar Revu features. Bookmark navigation and easier ways to move between documents are planned for early 2026, and this information will carry across devices as it should.
