Guest Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Hi, I would like to ask if something is on the roadmap or if there are any information regarding it. What I mean by companion app is something like Skala View or Adobe Experience Design/Preview CC which are apps that mirror your file/artboard to a mobile device so you can have a live view of your work. This is especially usefull for interface designers as they have to constantly check how the design feels on the target device. Is there a good workaround for now if my work enviroment consists of a Windows PC and an Android smartphone? Thanks and keep up the awesome work!

Staff MEB Posted January 24, 2017 Staff Share Posted January 24, 2017 Hi Daniel, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) There will be an iOS Mirror app soon but there's isn't much details about it yet. MattP (one of the developers) shared a few details here in this thread (page 4). I'm not aware of a similar app for Android devices at this point.

Guest Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Hey, thanks for the welcome! Too bad there are no concrete plans for a Android version.

There are interface designer on Windows and Android out there :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey MEB , Is there any detail about the iOS mirror APP?As a windows + iOS user, I can not design mobile UI without live preview .Because live preview is necessary.

Rakesh K Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 While it's great there there are some advanced features for UI design in Affinity Designer, it's sad that mobile device preview, an indispensable feature is still missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
