EagleViewer Pro for Android
For a free Demo Version please download "EagleViewer Demo".
This is perfect. Hard to even find something like this for a desktop not to mention a mobile phone. I'm impressed!
I can't use this to really get a good view of my designs, since it doesn't support viewing the polygons for gnd/pwr. This leaves many things unconnected, and when you're trying to figure out an issue, makes it extremely difficult. On the other hand if this deal-breaker issue was resolved, that alone would bump it to 4 stars :-)
With Eagle files
Why does values and text overlap?
Works great for viewing schematics and board files but for some reason layer 21 tPlace doesnt show up for most of my projects.
The idea behind the app is very useful, there are some missing features though. I would like to be able to search for a component or label inside the sch or brd. Also the sch font is broken, characters stack over each other. Correct these flaws and I'll give five stars.
Cant even open a simple sch or brd file
I'll refund
I was really excited for this but every time I try and open a file it tells me that there was an error while opening the file.
Would not open brd or sch
This app is great except for one major flaw: it does not keep the entire schematic or board loaded, only what is visible. This means that when you are zoomed out, you can see the entire board, but when you are zoomed in and move around, you have to lift your finger and wait a moment for the part that was not visible to load. Having to move, wait, move, wait, gets very annoying and greatly hinders the workflow. This app would be great without this flaw, but with it, it makes it very frustrating to work with.
I like the overall app but it became completely useless for me because I cannot view different schematic sheets! I would give the app 5 stars if it had this function. This is great for referencing your designs away from work but needs a bit more functionality. Note to Dev: if i just missed the option please let me know and i will update my review.
I can browse for a file in BOX and open a board OR schematic but app crashes when trying to switch from BRD to SCH. Works ok with local files but requires the extra steps of transferring the files. Also, polygons are not filled so its impossible to see GND and PWR planes. Wishing for the ability to pick a net to be highlighted on both schematic and board. Hopeful develper will continue to polish this app, the idea is great. Overall, its a toy app with only a little to offer over a PDF file.
Anyone who works with Eagle should get this app. Big thumb up!
Final works! Yes good tool
Changed review to 4 stars from my original 1. Can now use file browser to find and open files. Thanks for listening to the reviews author! Note 10.1 2014 edition
Displays an error when opening the file.
Was good on Android 4.2 but then took my tablet to 4.4 KitKat and it can't find the files anymore ugh. Only 'initial release' since 2012? Is this app abandoned? UPDATE! 10/11/2014 update not only fixed it for my KitKat, but added much needed file browser to locate the .brd/.sch files wherever they may be..Awesome! Though the update was long overdue, upgrading to 5 stars in appreciation. Thanks!
I don't know what the complaints are about, hasn't failed me once. I wouldn't edit on anything other than my large computer anyway, so it's exactly what I need.
Tried he demo before trying this and everything looked good. Bought the pro version and now I can't browse for any files as it just appears blank. Note 10.1 2014 edition
Don't know where to place the design files to be opened. It looks like the file open selection doesn't do anything... no refresh working. This is one broken app on my Samsung Note2 phone
Would get money back if i could... Dev will not respond. Will not find file on nexus 7. A (-) 5 stars would be a fitting rate of this app...... Remove app from the store and save others from a frustrating experience.
Nice little app,simple but perfect for viewing on the go :)
I cant view a schematic diagram on my file. It says files not supported. How can i open my .brd files?
Please update this app!
Where is the directory? How to load the file? Really nice to have if it works!!

Cant load file.. Waste money
The directory for loading files is fixed. Pretty annoying but there is also nothing stating where this fixed location is. Tried moving .sch and .brd files into my downloads folder on a Nexus 7 but no luck. Cool idea, needs a lot of work.
slow, layer view adjustments do nothing. would be useful to select to view only the top or bottom of board, for instance, but selecting layers has no effect.
As already said below, this app cannot open files from dropbox. Moreover it can only display the first page of a schematic. Otherwise very helpfull and usefull.

I would love to see some kind of cache to move around smoothly. This can be very annoying and it hits my workflow. But otherwise it works like a charm and it's worth the money.
Cannot load files from dropbox or any other user defined directory. I have several .sch and .brd files on sd card but this app cannot find them. Waiting for upgrade and bug fix otherwise total waste of money ....
i cannot open boards or schematics directly from the file explorer or from dropbox. otherwise it works great.
Cant see files on a Nexus 7.
This app should be removed from the store.
the file browser is broken, can't navigate to find files I even installed the "pro" version , what's the difference? Its a shame because its super handy to have schematics open on my tablet.
I needed a quick way to view .brd and .sch files on my phone and this app got the job done. Thanks!

Good idea, will be useful for what I do, but would like to see some more features, like background color choice.
