GrabCAD announced the release of the GrabCAD Android app, allowing Android users to view 3D CAD models on their mobile devices. According to the company, the app is the first application for the Android operating system that allows users to view files in any major CAD format.

The GrabCAD mobile app allows access to both the public GrabCAD library, with more than 200,000 models, and GrabCAD workbench, a member's personal CAD model storage area where users can share models privately with selected team members.

The free app is now available at Google Plan. Application features include the ability to view CAD models in full 3D, regardless of the format they were created in; to view and respond to comments that Workbench collaborators have made from any device; and upload photos to a Workbench project.
