Revu app is gone, so cloud is lacking.

Kicking off the new year Bluebeam has eliminated the iOS version of the Revu app, so now we are stuck with cloud. Cloud seems to have less than 25% of the functions we used on the app, and are now faced with cancelling several subscriptions due to the lack of tools. Primarily we use the Toolset in the field, on tablets. We use Revu in the office on PC's and everything works great, but the Cloud version for our tablets is MISSING the Tool Chest option. 90% of our work in the field utilizes this feature. Am i missing something, or did bluebeam cancel a working product and replace it with a product that doesn't work?

The tool chest is not there for iPad app for Revu quite yet. It is on the roadmap to be there, just not there today. The current Revu for iPad app that is installed will continue to work. Just any new installs won't be possible since the app is now gone from the app store.

Bluebeam I know is working hard to bring things like the tool chest and measurements to mobile. I wish they would have waited before pulling the app from the store, but this is where we're at now.

Cloud is scheduled to be updated this Quarter, hang in there.

@mfguynn @Troy DeGroot posted a "Bluebeam Web and Mobile Transition Playbook for iPad Users" on his website that might be a good resource for you. I'm not an iPad user, so I haven't been through the entire document yet, but I'd expect it would be worth checking out:

Hope this helps. 😎

I’m using Bluebeam Revu 21.8 – Complete and trying to streamline navigation in a drawing set. My goal is to auto-create hyperlinks from callouts (e.g. 5/A401) that jump directly to the referenced detail viewport, not just to the destination sheet as a whole. I understand that Bluebeam can create page-to-page links, but I’m…

How can I get this brown help suggestion box to stop popping up when I go to hyperlink?

Foreground focus does not register with mouse hovering

Good afternoon, I'm dealing with plans where every page is a differant scale. When I switch the scale on a differant page, it changes qunatities for all pages. I tried using viewports but it won't show me the total rollup on the bottom of the whole project. Any ideas? Thank you!
