About Skala View

Skala View is the companion app to Skala Preview for Mac — the fastest way to send pixel perfect, colour perfect design previews from your Mac to your Android device.

Previewing your design in situ lets you test tap sizes, text sizes, colour, contrast and ergonomics, all at a time where changes can be easily made — during the design process. It closes the loop, meaning you can iterate faster to a better final design.

★ Pixel Perfect
Skala Preview sends lossless, colour accurate image previews to any Android or iOS device. Previews are pixel perfect. Colours are identical to how the final app or website will look on the device.

★ Zoom In
Preview at precisely 100%. Zoom to exactly 200% to view a mdpi design full screen on an xhdpi device. Zooming in shows crisp pixels, not an interpolated, blurry mess.

★ Portrait & Landscape
Preview designs in portrait or landscape orientation.

★ Realtime Preview
If you’re using Photoshop, Skala Preview can preview your canvas as you edit. No saving, no keyboard shortcuts, just lossless previews in realtime. It is the absolute fastest way to preview a design mock up on an Android device.

★ Send Files & Clipboard
If you’re using Fireworks, Pixelmator, Acorn, another image editor or an older version of Photoshop, Skala Preview can send images via the clipboard or by dragging files to its dock icon or window.

The clipboard is sent automatically, so you don’t have to break your workflow to send — Just copy something and it’ll appear on your device.

★ Multiple Devices At Once
Send to as many devices as you’d like. It’s even possible to view different colour blindness testing, orientation or zoom level on multiple devices at once.

★ Colour Blindness Testing
Ensure your design can be used by those with protanopia, deuteranopia, tritanopia or complete colour blindness.

I'd like to control zooming better instead of snapping to 100% and 150%. Otherwise it's cool to preview my work in photoshop with this app while I'm still designing.

I love Skala View and I've been using it for years, but it's really impossible to make it work on Android. Even at home I have to try 10 times to make it work. Also it seems to have some kind of limitation of the image size, and as most devices are @3x it's really easy to exceed it. I'd love to see some USB connection option to solve these issues. Thank you.

Nice app for design preview and Its perfectly works on iPhone but not on Android devices and shows me no computers available whilst both devices connected to the same wifi. Why is this app not Android familiar?

Just spent half a day trying to make it work in android environment. Same WiFi, Firewall off, ports open. Nothing.. Every now and then it works for a few minutes and then times out and dies. Shame.. Has a premise of a really good app..

The app doesn't always instantly sync, and after a first use it wouldn't reconnect with Photoshop.

iOS counterpart works great on the same network and from the same computer but the Android version never sees my computer.

by R####:

The app is great, but I would suggest to add some more features. How about an option to save screens to history so I can later skim and compare my design iterations. Option to cache last screen so when I take my skala outside my home WiFi I can still see my last screen. Illustrator artboard support, yes that would be amazing if I could stream selected artboard from illustrator, currently I have to do a lot of copy paste between illustrator and Photoshop.

Why do you limit a height of previewing screens to 1366*3x = 4098 px?

Best app and best support also

Works once in a while, spend a lot of time to connect, it looks simple to sync, but it's more complicated…

L70%
by L####:

Using it with the Sketch plug-in. My problem is that it doesn't always sync. It says that it's connected, but whatever is on skala on my Mac isn't transferring to my phone. And when it does, it takes awhile because of reasons I don't know. For a moment I thought I was on Sketch mirror but hey I don't have an iPhone and I'm not connected to my mac by wifi network. So what gives? I assumed being connected by cable, data would be getting there pretty fast. Oh well. The intention is great, but execution....

Still having issues getting photoshop document to display, despite refreshing Photoshop Connection, and changing the remote connection username/password. Also, now if I drag a PSD into skala, which used to jumpstart the photoshop connection, I just get a black screen in my skala phone app. This app is great, when it works. Is there a way to contact you? It's showing up blank on long mobile designs, anything over 2000px in height.

I used to be a huge fan of Skala preview but now no more. After I bought Nexus 6 it works really really pathetically, can't increase the brightness the designs look really dull ... it really affects the work. Designs don't fit the screen either it will be small or it will exceed the screen size :(

Would be useful again when Skala will support Artboards on Photoshop CC 2015!

Guys, please, add custom flexible zoom (like 153% or 188%, not only 100, 150, 200). Please, add this opportunity. Thx!
