Why limit yourself to your small screen on the phone? Run Trimble Connect, an app by Trimble Inc., best experienced on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, the world’s #1 Android emulator.
Trimble Connect is one of those apps that’s all about getting everyone on the same page for construction projects. It’s not focused on fun or entertainment, but more on making group work a lot smoother. With it, all the big files, drawings, 3D models, and photos for a project are right there and easy to check out, no matter if someone’s at their desk, on a phone, or using a tablet. When using it on a PC (especially through BlueStacks), the whole setup feels a lot less cramped—there’s space to see those huge BIM models properly, even ones with a lot of complicated info.
Files open pretty quickly, and the 3D model viewer is surprisingly responsive, even with bigger, detailed models from programs like Revit or SketchUp. It’s nice that different file types aren’t a problem; just open them, look around, and add comments or notes where needed. There’s a feature for creating tasks, called ToDos, and users can do a lot of this even if there’s no internet, then sync it later—handy for anyone out on site or in range-challenged spots. Everything’s organized by the office team ahead of time, so the actual app is less about searching and more about just finding what’s needed in a few taps or clicks. Anyone using it is going to need a Trimble Connect account to log in and get set up, but once inside, the app keeps things simple and focused on what’s important for the job.
Switch to BlueStacks and make the most of your apps on your PC or Mac.
