With the AutoCAD mobile app, users can view, edit, create and share CAD drawings in real time from any device. Available across Windows, Android, and iOS phones and tablets, the AutoCAD mobile app is also optimized for the iPhone X, iPad Pro, and Windows Surface ensuring the best mobile experience.

Users can also access their DWG files without a Wi-Fi or data signal by downloading them locally to their mobile device. This eliminates the need to carry bulky blueprints in the field,and enables users to easily make edits on-the-go, or present projects to clients.

AutoCAD 2019 and AutoCAD LT 2019 also features new “Save To Web & Mobile,” “Open from Web & Mobile,” and “DWG Compare” capabilities. Together, these commands enable you to move files between desktop, web and mobile environments so users can work from anywhere.
