Tab bar doesn’t work well

Buggy is fine, I’ll find another way and fix it. Transition not smooth is fine, at least it still work and I’ll reduce the complexity of my prototype. But I just don’t understand why the tab bar works terribly. Had to keep tapping it until it works. That is not ok at all.
Tried it on a newer version of iPhone and it has a larger screen. When it’s not resized the tab bar works perfectly. Once it’s resized(the tab bar again is at the bottom of the screen), it doesn’t work anymore.

Please fix it. Even though it’s buggy and slow (both this preview app and desktop app), I still think it’s one of the best prototyping tool. I really like that I can control the logic and make it like a real app. That makes it a great usability testing tool. Hope the team can put more effort on it and make it better for everyone :)

No worky

Tried two demos. They do nothing. iPhone 5c latest iOS. One demo didn't even conform to my phone screen. They all launch frozen. Bummer. UPDATE: also tried connecting to my mac; current origami studio project doesn't show. hitting studio button says "connect" ... hmm... studio seems awesome, though. hope to see a fix!

Always crashing

Crashes all the time

Liars

OrigamiLive is horrible there name is phony OrigamiLive has literally nothing to do with oragami I come on here wanting to learn how to make paper boats hats and swans and find nothing of the sort I would not recommend OrigamiLive for anyone

Alpha-Quality

Crashes frequently, layouts often haphazardly mis-layed-out, even with the packed-in samples. Needs quite a bit more work before it could be considered “Beta” much less release-worthy.

Buggy

Not sure what they fixed but I don’t see any improvement.

Origami live is not only not showing the same thing I see in quartz, but switching between views is blinking while it’s not in Quartz Composer.

Not usable outside simple single screen example so far.

Crashes instantly

Mirroring instantly crashes on iPhone 6s plus

STEALS DATA

Protect yourself and your data by deleting all meta apps!!! Meta owned apps take your information and sell it.

Mirroring only works for exports

Can't view a prototype on iOS while plugged into the computer. Have to export the prototype and look at it while not plugged in. Also, there is no way to let "return" on text fields end editing on that text field. Great concept. Too glitchy.

Amazing but needs to be more reliable

Origami is an incredible tool that has so much potential. For the life of me though please make the preview app more reliable. I often find myself having to restart OrigamiLive on my phone and on my mac multiple times before I get the prototype to actually show up on device.

Please Update OS X Version!!!!

Origami doesn't work on OS X El Capitan! Please fix this! Thank you very much.

Great update, but viewfinder doesn’t work

Thank you so much for the latest updates!
It made life so much easier! QR code detection - it’s just something I couldn’t imagine and which is so great!
But now the iOS app crashes in the latest version. It crashes every time I am launching a prototype containing viewfinder patch.
We use it on iPhone XS and had no problems before. Please, fix it!

Great tool

I use OrigamiLive almost every day. Origami Studio is great as a standalone, but only this mobile app makes it possible to show your prototype to someone and get valid Feedback. Please continue to invest in it. This has Great Potential and a unique community. Would ❤️❤️❤️ if it was easier to create prototypes that adapt to different screen resolutions.

New Tool In My Toolbox

This is the perfect companion to what might be the perfect prototyping tool. Glad to see we're finally here. Been looking forward to this since F8.

Finally!

Huge thanks to brandon and the fb team for making this possible!

Best prototyping tool

Besides jump right into Xcode, this is the best prototype tool to creat sophisticated mockups in fast speed.

I am a power user, and see a lot of potential in this application. I hope the FB team could keep improving this, on performance, work with server etc.

Can’t wait for the next update!

Best update!

So excited about origami 2.0. Has all the updates I've been asking for!

Aweosme.!!

That's the Mobile Prototype app we've been waiting for 😎👌

🤓

Hands down, Origami is the best prototyping tool in town!

Incredible App

Works great! Love the integration with Origami for the MAC. Prototyping has never been easier. Facebook continues to raise the bar! Tutorials on GitHub are the real deal as well. Well done!
