Does not work for me
Even after following every instruction the secs have to get this working it refuses to find my mac. Very disappointed.
Excellent app for iOS designers
Best app I've seen out there for iOS testing for designers. I use it literally everyday. Highly recommend.
Love and hate
I love that I can mirror my UI designs onto my iDevices with relative ease, but I hate how the "lock" feature doesn't stay locked, and you can't pan the screen around using gestures, you have to use the arrow buttons. Not only that, you can't hold the arrow buttons down; you have to tap them once for EVERY-SINGLE-PIXEL. Annoying.

Outstanding
The best of the bunch (compared to similar products) and I could simply not live without it anymore!
Most useful tool I own.
I can't get over how useful this tool is for designing for iPad applications. I was using an alternative free application for iPad mirroring but it was underwhelming and lacking basic features. xScope is truly magical and makes designing for iDevices amazing.
It only gets a 4 star review due to its speed. Thankfully I don't have to interact with the iPad after I get everything set up, but the controls are really unresponsive and I find myself tapping the same thing multiple times for it to recognize my input.

Indespensible
I use this tool every day for both Mac and iOS work. It's absolutely indispensable. A must buy for any serious Cocoa developer.
File Mirroring still an issue
I am an app designer starring down the barrel of developing for iPad retina.
I was excited to see the update that seemed to claim to fix the problem with mirroring via file. But when I tried it out, it still snaps back to mirroring under curser when you save. This only seems to happen on PSD files. With monitor size limitations this really could be a KILLER app and feature if the file mirroring worked better.
Please debug/update soon!

Frustrating new features
The new snap to document feature seems broken- it snaps to Photoshop window, which is not the same as the document edge. Makes for a very frustrating experience and far more difficult to use than before. Please test new features out before release!
Flaky mirroring
The mirroring feature (the main reason I purchased xScope) is really flaky. It seems hit or miss if my laptop will show up in the app (more often than not, it doesn't). I usually have to reboot either my phone or MacBook and even then it doesn't always work. I followed all the troubleshooting on their website and that still hasn't fixed it. It's nice when it does work, however.

Changes the way I work
My old mobile UXD workflow was complex. It involved layer comps, Dropbox and cups of tea.
xScope Mirror is awesome. It totally streamlines the design process, and let's you see a live view of your work right on your iPhone or iPad.
It took me a few minutes to set things up, but it works great for me.
