Fail!
doug.miles@... 29th Mar 2012
I downloaded this iPad app based on this review and 1/2 hour later, I've contacted customer support to get a refund. I tried to load my plan, which is big, but not huge, and it told me "file size exceeds limits"...so basically I'm hooped! That was the worst $6 I've spent!!

Doug,

There's another MS Project viewer available: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/projects-ad-lib/id424561067?mt=8
DISCLOSURE: I wrote it.
Unlike the app in review, mine can open MPP files, no need to convert to XML first.
Would you like to try it? Write me a private message, and I'll send you a promo code.

I use SG Project ($9.99) and love it Doug. There is also a Pro version. They regularly update their product as well. For more information see:

Thanks, I'll try it. I looked at it, but based on the recommendation, downloaded Gantt Pro. The problem with iPad apps is you can't try before you buy. My entire project plan is 4.7Mb, but when it's converted to XML, it's over 10Mb which exceeds the capability of this product. I'll try SG Project and if I like it, will look at the Pro version.

Thanks!!

Hi Alex.
I was just about to buy Planning Pro from the same company as Gantt when I saw your post. Can you please send me a promo code, so I can evaluate Projects Ad Lib? Does it open from email? Thanks, regards,
