Re: Update on Bluebeam for Mobile - Spring 2025
Will we be able to download custom tool sets to our iPad for use in Bluebeam Cloud? This is one reason I have kept using Revu for iPad.

Re: Revu for iPad to Retire on December 31, 2025
Hello Shawn - Thank you for the reply.
We have some very strict requirements for data handling and access controls, both by our org and by our customers.
Currently BB Studio and Bluebeam itself are approved platforms. Bluebeam cloud is NOT.
I suggest taking this conversation off-line to dive in a bit deeper to see just how this works. As an on-line forum is not appropriate.
Thank you.
Want to Be Featured in Our New “Moments on Site” Video Series?
We’re launching something new for Built, the Bluebeam Blog—and we want you to be part of it.
“Moments on Site” is a short video series spotlighting real people, real stories, and real experiences from the field. Whether you’re a project manager, field engineer, apprentice, VDC lead, or somewhere in between, we want to hear what life is really like on the jobsite—unscripted, unfiltered, and honest.
This is your chance to:
- Share a lesson you’ve learned the hard way
- Reflect on a small win that made a big difference
- Talk about how your team collaborates on the fly
- Or just tell us what you wish someone had told you in year one
We’ll keep it simple—just a 60–90 second video (filmed selfie-style, over Zoom, or in the field if you're up for it). We’ll handle the editing. You get to tell your story.
If you're interested in being featured—or know someone who should be—drop a comment below or email us at fkalman@bluebeam.com.

Still hoping to be a speaker again though 😉
Re: How to Track Project Issues
This is where the Project Information Management Sytems (PIMS) stay in business. Procore, Plangrid, Project Sight, etc. all track issues, RFIs, Submittals, Schedule, Punch lists and the like, sending daily reminders for overdue items. These all allow PDF attachments from Bluebeam. Otherwise, using an excel sheet is effective - organized in a similar way. Essentially, the PIMS are fancy interfaces and servers that map back to a database for managing these items.
If you are having issues with emails getting buried, try marking them for follow up. Outlook uses "Flags" where you can sort your inbox by flagged messages until you mark them as complete. It also allows setting reminders; Today, Tomorrow, This Week, Next Week, Custom.
Re: Keyboard Shortcut Request - toggle on/off specific layers
A shortcut key to toggle through layers or to toggle a certain layer on an off would be awesome!
