About The Preview

The Preview is the fastest and easiest way to send your Photoshop mockups live to an actual Android device. This makes designing an app's interface much more comfortable.


- Easy Setup:
Just enable Remote Connections in Photoshop, fill in two fields in the app, and you are ready to go.

- Saving Credentials:
You don't have to remember your address and password all the time, we store the last connection's details for you.

- Live Preview:
The Preview will show you your canvas as you edit it. You don't have to save it, press any keys, you got a realtime preview.

- Pixel Perfect:
If your mockup uses the same resolution as your device's, you will get a lossless, color identical, pixel perfect preview as you design.

- All Scenarios:
No matter if it's a phone or a tablet, portrait or landscape, we got you covered.


Please note: This app requires Adobe Photoshop CS5 12.0.4 or newer to be installed on your Mac/PC.

As a professional photographer I needed a quick way to check the colour I'm outputting works as well on phone screens as it does on my personal monitor. This app does the job quickly, easily and without fuss. I can adjust an image in lightroom, open it in PS and the image instantly appears on my phone thus allowing me to keep an eye on the way my customers are most likely to view my images. The remote connection option needed for set up is in the Edit menu in PS (information I would have found useful!).

Its good, but as an mobile app designer, i am not able to scroll page to check full page view. Completely useless for me. But concept is really nice, so please update.

If you have multiple artboards, they all show and break the functionality and usefulness of the tool.

I have enoyed using this app - but now that photoshop has upgraded to using artboards this doesn't do well with artboards :( I would gladly even pay for a premium version so that it will work with artboards.

Pretty cool app that quickly allows you to preview your designs. As others have stated, there is room for improvement. 1) Add an option for multiple hosts; it's inconvenient when switching between home and work computers. 2) Not sure if its just my device (HTC One M9), but the status bar doesn't appear as it should in my designs. I have my canvas set to 1080x1920 as it should in Photoshop.

Couldn't get it to work on Nexus 5x. Enabled remote connections, filled in the two fields on both PS and phone - nothing.

Its a good app despite few glitches. Was working well before but for some reason it stopped working with my photoshop. I checked ip and password trillion times but not working.

Tried to connect using hostname and IP lots of times.

Every 2 seconds a crash screen pops up - Bug fixed

Z70%
by Z####:

If the ratio of the canvas is different from that of the phone screen (like designing content below the fold), the image on the phone will be cropped with no way to zoom in/out or pan/scroll... So in other words it's useless 70% of the time

Love it. Its not just some fancy thing but works like a wonder, the only drawback is it does not scroll if u have designing a longer app version in Photoshop.Fix that and I will rate it 5star :)

Works very well and does what it needs to do. I'd like the option to toggle showing the bar at the bottom of the screen, whatever it's called, but this isn't really a problem.

R70%
by R####:

This requires no special permissions to run. Great! And runs well! One question: Can it has multiple-connections? Then I can use this app in the office with my office LAN address and use this at home with my home LAN address. I don't need to set it every time. But Thank you anyway!

Z70%
by Z####:

But please please please fetch the whole image, many times you have to make a "long" mockup to demonstrate what is visible when you scroll. That would be an awesome feature!

Awesome app, can be improved some areas like adding hosts and switching between them.
