Embrocad — The Embroidery Designs Viewer App Coming Soon

If you've ever worked with embroidery machines, you know the frustration. You have a design file on your phone, you want to quickly check the stitch count or see how the colors look — and there's simply no good mobile app to do it. Existing tools are either desktop-only, paid beyond reason, or just barely functional.

That's what pushed me to build Embrocad.


What is Embrocad?

Embrocad is a mobile embroidery design viewer and toolkit, built from the ground up for Android. It's designed for embroiderers who work with machine embroidery files daily — whether you're digitizing, ordering designs, or running an embroidery business.


What can it do?

Here's what's coming at launch:

  • Open embroidery files — DST, JEF, EXP, PES, VP3, XXX, and more. Just tap a file and it opens.
  • Stitch-by-stitch playback — watch your design stitch out in real time, just like a machine would sew it.
  • Thread color list — see every color in the design with its catalog details.
  • Design info — stitch count, color count, dimensions, estimated sew time, and pricing estimate.
  • Design gallery — keep all your designs organized in one place with thumbnail previews.
  • Design Shot — export a clean photo of your design in PNG or JPG.
  • PDF Worksheets — generate a professional design worksheet with color table, stats, and notes. Perfect for clients or production notes.
  • Export to all formats — convert designs between embroidery formats.
  • GIF export — animated stitch-out preview you can share directly.

Who is it for?

Embrocad is built for:

  • Home embroiderers who want to preview designs before loading them on a machine
  • Small business owners who need quick pricing and client-ready worksheets
  • Digitizers who want to inspect and verify their designs on mobile

When does it launch?

Soon. I'm putting the final touches on it right now. If you want to be notified the moment it's available on the Play Store, bookmark this page — I'll post the link here the day it goes live.


A word from me

This has been a solo project, built entirely in my own time. Every screen, every feature — made by one person who wanted a better tool for this craft. I'm proud of what it's become, and I can't wait to put it in your hands.

Stay tuned.
