No. At least not currently.

What can/will be done to rectify this situation? I only use Sketchup Pro on my new Ipad Pro. Are extensions available using the Apple MacBook Pro or Mac Studio? I don’t understand the issues between iPad and desktop versions with Sketchup.

Thanks,

SketchUp Pro only runs on MacOS and Windows. It does not run on the operating system used by your iPad. I don’t really see there’s anything to rectify. As I understand it one limitation preventing the implementation of extensions is not possible due to Apple’s rules regarding third party apps. It has been explained here previously. You could do a search for it if you want.

If you need to use extensions you’ll need to use your MacBook Pro or something similar.
