Flinto 1 4 6 – Comprehensive Prototyping Involves

If you want to put your prototype in front of users, you will want to determine which questions about the design you want to know the answer to. For example, in the photo app that we will be prototyping today, this is an example of a paper prototype. You'll note that it's pretty clear that the focus is on the basics of the design, and not on color. Nov 06, 2017 The biggest challenge with Flinto is that sharing prototypes with remote users can be difficult. To get a remote user to open a Flinto prototype, I need to: Make sure they have an iPhone (Flinto currently only works with iOS devices) Explain how to download the Flinto iOS app; Share a link to the Flinto file. Flinto for Mac is a comprehensive app prototyping tool that allows you to create anything from simple tap-through prototypes, to comprehensive prototypes with impressive interactions. We've carefully designed Flinto for Mac to minimize complexity. There's no programming or timelines. It's the prototyping tool designers have been waiting for.

From the course: Hands-On Mobile Prototyping for UX Designers

Course details

Design research and user requirements only get you so far. Sometimes you have to go hands on to create the user experience your mobile app users deserve. Explore the various methods for prototyping mobile applications, from analog to digital, and their place in the UX design process. Diane Cronenwett explains why prototyping is so important in UX, and compares the merits of low-fidelity methods like pen and paper to high-fidelity tools such as Photoshop. She then teaches various paper and digital prototyping methods, using tools such as stop-motion animation, Keynote, InVision, and Flinto. Using these prototyping techniques, you'll be able to refine your designs and get more targeted feedback from your users.

The first thing I'm gonna do to create my new prototype is to select New Prototypes here on the right. And then I'm gonna give my prototype a name, in this case, PhotoApp. Under Device, in this drop-down, you'll see that there are various options to choose your device type. I'm going to select iPhone 6. Everything else looks good to me. The other option I have available to me is to add a password which I will not be doing today. I'm just going to create new prototype. The first thing I'm gonna do is I'm going to select Add Screens from the top left. And from here, I'm just going to select my feed images, one through eight. So you'll notice that they are all in order from one to eight, which is exactly what I want. Okay, so once my screens are added in, I'm going to select the images that have…
