► Here’s what satisfied users around the world are saying about LargeViewer:

"Keep up the good work. You have an excellent program. All of our field staff have iPads and the number one complaint is slow rendering when reading blueprints. I will let everyone know to try this app and re-evaluate their position on digital blueprints.” 

"Finally! This is the viewer that handles any size image I throw at it. Even ones with many dozens of megapixels! I have been looking for something like this. Others I have tried are extremely slow at scrolling or zooming, or cant handle the large images I want to view. But LargeViewer is screaming fast and can handle ever size image I have tried."

"LargeViewer is the best large image viewer I have seen, by far. And now with the new iPad with retina display its even more useful! Simply stunning! If you want to view pretty much any resolution image and really show off what the retina display can do, youve got to get this app! Butter smooth scrolling, and just refuses to crash even when throwing 80-megapixel Phase One IQ180 images at it!”

"I am a professional civil engineer. I now have all my drawings loaded to my iPad when I go for inspections. It works well for large files and it is FAST."

"Incredible. Test passed with a TIFF file from 11.000 x 5700, weight 190 MB. Fantastic. It has a button to zoom to 100%, and it’s easy to go beyond the resolution of the file. Thanks and congratulations for the work. App absolutely recommended.”

Pros and cons of Blueprints with LargeViewer app for iPhone and iPad

Blueprints with LargeViewer app good for

Anybody who has tried to open a survey plan on their iphone has run into problems. My primary file program - files - crashes every time, and so did everything else I tried. Anybody who has ever had to balance a 3 ft x 4 ft piece of paper on their knee in the rain while a half dozen people stand around trying to read it has wished their iphone could open plans as easily as everything else. This one does it, and does it easy. The ability to open my mail files, and dozens of obscure file types? An even bigger bonus. Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou. Note that as the reviewers below found out, opening really large pdfs takes a while (20-30 sec), but at the very least Ive never had it crash on me.
I am a site prof civil engineer, I have now all my drawings loaded to my ipad2 when I go for inspections, it works well for large files and it is FAST.
Works very well. It does exactly what it is suppose to do. If you have to look at large maps or blue prints or any large document i recommend this.
This is a great app for prints. The only thing that needs to change is "tap row to move". You should be able to move multiple rows into a created folder. One at a time is annoying and takes a long time.

Some bad moments

With this app I was not able to CLEARLY read a large PDF drawing as indicated. Once I opened the drawing it was extremely blurry. Closing the app and re-opening the app always brought me back to the same PDF drawing with no options to do anything else. I could not get back to the main menu. I have requested a refund.
I was happy to read what this app does at the first place because I was waiting for a such app. Unfortunately it does not functional as it described at all, I requested for a refund.
After forever I can start using my iphone for plan views. You havent lived until youve had three people trying balance a 4ft portfolio on their knees two stories up a scaffold in the wind and rain. Being easy to use is just a perk. Bravo, and about time.
Look, exciting, not only has the PDF viewer improved 100% in this new 1.1 update, theyve added the ability to let me view all those Faxed contracts I have in my Dropbox "legalstuff" folder. Great stuff, I just dont know of any other app that can do that. Wow I cant believe anyone has commented, after fighting with my iPad to display architecture drawings there now is an app that lets me see them? Just the cost saving instead of printing them to paper or mylar is huge savings for our staff. Clients think we are *high* tech if we can show them on the iPad. We still might print a bit, people like the feeling of physical paper, but that can be for the final copy for the customer and bloody well built into the price. I phoned the developer and they told me theyve worked with paper sizes upto 80 inches, which is amazing, but that means we can crank the detail right down to the slots on the wall electrical sockets. Also means for showing commercial projects it means we can deal with 300,000 sq ft warehouse floors without hassle. Great stuff. 1.5 just flies
i Pad, Large Viewer, and I can go somewhat paper free. Nice to have an app that reduces the carbon load. Works really well even if I gave it a 52x48 scanned drawing at 300dpi. As a bonus it reads Fax tif/tiff files which I couldnt read before on my iPhone.
Wow at last an app that can render my 48x36 TIFF files without freaking out. Best is that it can even digest 57 page PDF files that are 36x24. Until I found this app nothing in the store would deal with that document in a sane manner.
