With Newforma Konekt’s mobile app, you can view the project files from Newforma Konekt directly in the app as well as files from Autodesk Docs and Sharepoint when their folders are connected on the web application. The mobile app allows all logged in project team members to access the most up-to-date information about the project. The files can be downloaded to the device for later viewing or opened using the application of your choice on your device.

Note that iOS opens the supported files automatically while Android asks you for the choice of application to open the file.
