Doesn't work with Navis Freedom though? That's pretty important for the field crew since they use the viewer. The CAD team already knows how to navigate models, so they don't need an XBOX controller... Make this work with freedom, and you'll get my cash!

Only Navisworks Manage and Navisworks Simulate are listed on the Autodesk App Store page, not Navisworks Freedom.

Please note, if you want changes to the app, we suggest that you navigate to the App Store posting and contact the app author. Here's a convenient link to the page from which you can contact the author: https://bit.ly/2GwYK5h
