Onshape on a tablet

Hi,
I wanted to ask if any of you are using Onshape on a tablet in production. If so, are you using an Android, iOS, or Microsoft tablet?
Large assemblies seem to be a problem for the Android app — the assemblies don’t display, and the app crashes (tested on a Samsung Tab S7 and a Google Pixel 9a phone).
The goal is for people in production to quickly view the 3D model of the assembly and the assembly drawings on a tablet.
thanks.

Seems like this should work. It was the cell phone chips that started the M1 craze.
I owed an ipad for 4 hours thinking I could abandon laptops forever. Turns out I didn't like the non-browser version and Ipad couldn't run a chrome browser effectively. I returned it and haven't looked back. I would say no, you won't be happy.
I wish it could work and maybe someone else has had better success.
thanks for sharing your experience. I am curious if someone else tried tablets.
