SKPViewer3D
SKPViewer3D is a lightweight viewer application for SketchUp SKP model files on macOS. It allows users to open, examine, and interact with 3D SketchUp models without requiring the full SketchUp application, making it useful for reviewing designs, collaborating with SketchUp users, or previewing models during the design review process. The app provides basic 3D navigation, model inspection, and measurement capabilities.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about SKPViewer3D's Apple Silicon support status — the search results were inconclusive and the developer's public presence appears limited. If you rely on this app, contact the developer directly at the bundle ID vendor domain (afanche) to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build exists or is planned, as an Intel-only version will stop launching entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028). Alternatively, SketchUp itself (the full authoring application from Trimble) has shipped a native Apple Silicon build and includes model viewing capabilities, so if you only need to inspect SKP files occasionally, upgrading to the latest SketchUp may be a practical solution. For quick SKP viewing without a SketchUp license, check whether a newer version of SKPViewer3D or a competitor like Viewlogs or other SKP viewers have added native support in the meantime.
