Key features in SketchUp Go
SketchUp Go is designed for flexible 3D work in the browser and on the iPad. Here are some of the features that help you capture ideas, develop concepts, and present models wherever you work.
SketchUp for Web
With SketchUp for Web, you can create, edit, and share 3D models right in your browser. It makes it easy to get started with modelling without a desktop installation and to work on your ideas wherever you are.
SketchUp for iPad
With SketchUp for iPad, you can sketch, model, review, and present ideas in 3D right on your iPad. It's especially useful when you want to work more flexibly at the office, on-site, or together with clients and project teams.
Scan-to-Design
With Scan-to-Design, you can 3D scan existing conditions with your iPad and quickly create a base for further design in SketchUp. It makes it easier to work with real-world context, sketch on the spot, and develop ideas directly in 3D.
Add Location
With Add Location, you can add location context to your models by geolocating the project and importing maps, terrain, and surrounding buildings in 3D. It helps you start your design work with a better understanding of the site.
Working on the go
With SketchUp Go, you can access and work with your models both in the browser and on iPad. It makes it easy to continue working at the office, on site, or together with clients and project teams.
Present and review in 3D
Show models in 3D directly to customers and project teams and make it easier to discuss ideas and design options. SketchUp Go helps you communicate projects visually and gather feedback early in the process.
Do I need to install anything to use SketchUp Go?
SketchUp Go is mainly used directly in the browser and on iPad. This means you don’t need to install SketchUp for Desktop to get started with modelling, sketching, and presenting.
Is SketchUp Go suitable for professional work?
Yes, SketchUp Go can suit professional users who need a flexible tool to create, review, and share 3D ideas.
For more advanced documentation, desktop modeling, and larger workflows, SketchUp Pro might be a better option.
Can I open and work with existing SketchUp files?
Yes, SketchUp Go can be used to work with SketchUp models on the web and iPad. It makes it easy to keep working on models, review projects, and share materials between different devices.
What type of projects is SketchUp Go best suited for?
SketchUp Go is especially good for early concepts, simpler 3D modelling, visualisation, presentation, and review.
It’s a good option when flexibility and quick access to models are more important than a full desktop-based workflow.
What should I choose, if I'm unsure about SketchUp Go or Pro?
The choice depends on how you work and what features you need.
SketchUp Go is suitable for flexible work in a browser and on iPad, while SketchUp Pro is better if you need desktop modelling, LayOut, and more extensive documentation.
