### 2/5 — App Navigation Makes No Sense

*2022-03-26, version 2.10.7*

Big fan of desktop experience, navigation and IA. Unfortunately none of that translates to the mobile app. In fact a lot of the hierarchy like spaces/sections do not translate on mobile (at least in an intuitive way) which makes it very difficult to navigate and find the pages you actually want to preview.

One example of an unintuitive interaction is returning to your dashboard after you click into a prototype - very unclear and I still find myself randomly tapping/swiping in order to get back - if i don’t just quit the app. Another is how the sections translate on mobile - instead of seeing the section titles, I just see the project name repeated. Why not just show the section titles? Would love to see better integration between desktop and mobile - especially for viewing mobile prototypes.

### 2/5 — Nice concept. Poor execution.

*2022-01-21, version 2.10.6*

InVision seems like one of so many design/UX app firms that started strong, then ran out of steam, or money, or ambition, or... something. A sub-par deliverable like this only shows they're losing the arms race.

Guys (and gals), please make a stable app that doesn't crash (on a new iPad Pro M1), and that displays all info consistently. For example, zooming into content in freehand causes all that content to vanish.

### 1/5 — Loss Of Support For Hotlinks Is Ridiculous

*2021-10-18, version 2.10.6*

This app was “good enough” but with in the past year or two it has lost the support for hotlinks. This is frustrating because the support of hotlinks on mobile was the reason I used Sketch with Invision.  With out the ability to build a mobile prototype with functioning hotlinks there isn’t anything preventing me from moving over to Sketch Cloud, or Figma, or xD.

### 3/5 — Needs some work

*2021-09-21, version 2.10.6*

The overall design is fine. I’ve only had a short time with this app. But you have to login on almost every action you make. iPad falls asleep? login. Wanna work on a different project? login. 

Everything else is okay. It’s a little awkward with boxes but that’s fine.

### 1/5 — Awful UX

*2021-09-13, version 2.10.6*

For being a UX app, the iPad app completely contradicts itself. I’m constantly being logged out, the tools switch on me, it does not follow the iPad’s settings for drawing only with the pencil, it doesn’t automatically pull up the keyboard while using the type tool… When I log in, it asks for a business email? I use my personal email. The tool usage is just incredibly buggy.

### 4/5 — Great for desktop prototyping

*2021-07-27, version 2.10.6*

Great for desktop previewing but Mobile app is unstable. Crashes on me just about every time so I can’t preview the mobile option of our site on an actual phone. 

I do wish you could grab multiple hotspots and reposition them all at once.

### 2/5 — Terrible lag and very slow

*2021-07-08, version 2.10.6*

Just came on here to say this app hasn’t gotten better after trying to use it for years. There’s a terrible lag trying to load screens, sometimes it won’t load at all. When it tries to, the app would close down completely. I can never access my screens/projects on my phone. May just delete altogether to access in my browser instead.

### 1/5 — Cannot view teams freehand on mobile from slack

*2021-06-04, version 2.10.6*

I click on a freehand. Your website asks me to login repeatedly. I try and try. I finally get through. You no longer allow viewing on mobile web. I have to download the app. I download the app. I have no way of linking the link I have to the app I downloaded. It’s not stored in my account because it’s someone else on my teams link. I don’t have access to a computer but you won’t let me use your product on mobile. Very frustrating.

### 4/5 — Fix your app keeps crashing

*2021-02-28, version 2.10.5*

Every time I log in it crashes, my phone is up to date and app is as well but still not working. Please fix this.

### 4/5 — Mood board categories not right

*2021-02-13, version 2.10.5*

So the app looks good however I minus one star because the mood board I created on my computer is not showing up the same in the app. The screen shots are appearing in random categories and not showing up in the right category. But if you open up the screenshot it is under the right category. Buggy.
