Overview
Need to view your 3D models in the field? In the mobile version of Fieldwire, you can use specific gestures to navigate 3D models in the BIM viewer. This article will show you how!
Keep in mind, the 3D Models tab will not be displayed on mobile if there are no 3D models already uploaded to your project. This is due to the limited size of mobile device screens.
Note: To view larger 3D models, we recommend that your device has at least 4GB of RAM; if you are trying to view a more complex model on a device with less than 4GB of RAM, the Fieldwire app may crash.
To avoid this, try the following:
- Clear any background apps to free up memory.
- Split a single model into several smaller models to view on mobile.
- Upgrade your device's memory/RAM.
