Works perfect with Hype. Whisk not so much

Please update to fix compatibility with Whisk. My exported Hype .HTML file Ive opened in Whisk doesn’t reflect: “Connection Error”.

Works fine on same machine with Hype.

Doesn’t work at all

Both Mac and ipad are on the same wifi, but it never connects.

Works as expected

Thanks for making it free!

Total flop

The app no longer seems to connect the the Hype 3 Professional preview connection with my iPhone 5S even though they both are on the same network. Very frustrating since it works with my iPad which has the same settings. It would be nice to see theses bugs fix.

Works Flawlessly

Amazing free tool. Works flawlessly and has extremely helpful features. Connecting was so quick and effortless.

Reliance on wi-fi is a deal breaker

I've never gotten this to work. Mac and iPhone are on the same wi-fi. Not firewall to speak of. I can't go fiddle with my router, because I'm at work in a larger company. Tumult: why oh why do this via wifi? Why not just let me connect via a lightning cable? Or email myself a build, a la Flinto? Workarounds to view this on device are a PITA - maddening.

Useless with newest version of Hype 6!

So I bought newest version of Hype specifically to use this and then find out it doesn't work. Not even updated since July 2015! I'd wait to buy Hype 6 until they have all their ducks in a row for development.

Buggy

It is great for a quick preview. But the audio is buggy with this tool. I spent an hour or more trying to track down an audio bug in my code... Only to discover it is just this tool that does not okay audio reliably.

Bugs

Please fix scaling bugs. Its impossible to crate even a basic app prototype w this new version.

Best prototyping tool for designers

I've tried them all and Tumult Hype is the best choice so far. Great user community and support staff too which can be a huge time saver.

Update does not work

Don't update this does not work. Original 1000 times more reliable.

Very nice but resize for iPhone6&6+

Very nice but really bad if you test it the app needs only resize for iPhone 6

not yet updated for Hype 3

Although I can get the app to work between iOS8 and Yosemite running the new Hype 3 Pro, I cannot get the layouts to display properly when trying to prototype. When testing on my iPhone 6 using the iPhone 6 preset layout sizes the content is huge and needs to be pinch zoomed to fit. rotating to landscape does not activate the landscape layout either.

Not sure if Tumult is planning to update this app since it doesn't seem to support the new iPhone 6 & 6+ five plus months after they were released.

Not working

As another user stated, the app no longer works with iOS8 and Yosemite. There are no connectivity issues because I can see when I mirror the app, but when I try to test the prototype it only shows a blank screen. Also, the export to Safari on hype doesn't do anything.

Please fix this!

Love Hype, But....

I thought this thing was the answer to my dreams. Connected once, here we go... Hype OSX couldn't find it a second time, no matter how many times I tried and restarted, reset my wifi.

Just kept spinning, looking for a device.

Disappointed.

Great app

The mist amazing app on the AppStore! Hype will single handedly demolish flash if the world has any sense!

Just got better

The best HTML5 editor - Ever - Just got better and this app compliments it perfectly.

I rarely get excited about software releases these days but mmmmm I love this

Has stopped working

I rarely write reviews but I am severely frustrated.

Really began to dive into Hype and all that it has to bring to the table - which is a lot - but this app does not at all serve it's purpose.

I can't open any of my test files on my phone or iPad. Just get a blank screen...

Please fix this as soon as you can.

The Best Web-Dev Application Suite

I hate to write this review and give away one of my greatest secrets, but Tumult Hype (Mac Application) coupled with the Hype Reflect (mobile iOS App) preview tool is THE BEST!!!! Think of it as flash timeline-like development for HTML5. It is a DREAM tool for those who are graphical/visual developers not code jockeys. I started using this tool to build super-cool interactive content for my web pages, and now use it to develop full-on mobile web apps. Freaking Fantastic!!!!!

My greatest fear is they get bought-up by a larger company and ruined.

NOTE: this app alone is not useful without the Mac-based Hype SW Application, but it is a DEAL for $30. No joke, one of my very favorite development tools!

Excellent mirroring app

This app is just great for previewing my animations on my iPad. It does the job perfectly.
