Adobe XD 4+

Loved this program

If only Adobe would see its potential. It just needed a little more features and it would have been on par with figma.

I now have to pay a separate subscription for figma alone; potentially kicking me out of the Adobe creative suite as a UX designer.

As a suggestion, making actionable items like you see in PowerPoint would make these prototypes absolutely stunning, even figma doesn’t have such a thing. I’ve seen people make literal video games from PowerPoint using action items.

Void of basic UI controls

First, I can’t understand the 5 star reviews of this mobile app specifically.

For starters once you choose a prototype to view, it fixes to the art board viewport leaving black space around board. If you extend the viewport in XD desktop and republish to full vertical, the artboard appears as a narrow strip in mobile app. That would be ok if the app supported ZOOM. You can’t zoom in on any artboard like all other prototype apps in the market do. Zooming is an intuitive must have for any object. Second I found it almost impossible to go back to the prototype menu. I tapped everywhere on screen to try to access their limited menu drawer. A few times it appeared but I don’t know what I did to access it. Still a mystery.

Many of us would like to use XD for web design, not only mobile apps. Clearly Adobe has not really considered web designers as a user of XD. For one they don’t support color management making any color you design completely off when deployed in this app. Adobe start by observing your competitors and copy their base functions that we users intuitively expect. Then throw in your Adobe Sensai to give you distinction. The lack basic functions makes this workflow inferior in every way.

Love the mobility

I love the simple shareable features this app provides. At a spur of the moment time I wanted to show someone the prototype. I didn’t have access to my computer to use XD so I thought I would go on the iPhone Apple App Store to see if XD was an option. And there it was. I download it, I signed in, and then I was able to access my project to show someone my prototype. What’s even cooler is I saw that there was a feature I can share or invite someone to this design and it was great.
