### 3/5 — Export to Figma/sketch/Adobe xd and you will have a loyal customer

*2026-07-25, version 4.3.1*

Export to Figma/sketch/Adobe xd and you will have a loyal customer

### 4/5 — Why is there no rotation function?

*2026-04-16*

I have subscripted, and I need the rotation. I think it's more important.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We took note of your suggestions and forwarded them to the team.

### 3/5 — Great but Limited

*2026-04-10, version 4.1.4*

The app and its tools is absolutely incredible. The simplicity and minimalistic interface and experience makes the wireframe highly productive. 

However the biggest drawback is the limited canvas space! If you wanted to create a:

• Full Vertical web page
• Vertical Scrolling App 

You cant! Your wireframe / prototype would be cut off because it limits the canvas by size and not dimensions. Having too create multiple screens for one page is absolutely a NO GO! Restricted canvas defeats the purpose of wireframe and prototype. Imagine presenting to a client and you have 5-10 canvas to display just 1 page for an app or webpage. Absurd. The images in the description are also misleading for making it appear as if you can scrolling to expand the canvas.

### 4/5 — Top

*2026-04-08*

Eu tenho um canal no YouTube e se chama ————,e estou planejando fazer algo com isso. É muito legal, dá para trollar direitinho os outro. Só que achei um absurdo o preço do Premium… Top!!!🔝.

**Developer response:** Obrigado pelo seu feedback! Gostaríamos de entender melhor suas preocupações em relação aos preços e saber qual plano você está considerando. Se puder, entre em contato conosco por e-mail em support@apprime.studio — teremos prazer em ajudar.

### 4/5 — Great for high quality UI mockups

*2026-01-26, version 4.1.1*

Great for high quality mockups that are perfect for validating UI fidelity

### 3/5 — Critic

*2025-11-21*

Not incentivazed to pay w/o a test drive first

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! You can try Mockup for free, but it comes with some limitations. Also, you can start a free trial to explore all the features before committing to a purchase.

### 3/5 — Super

*2025-11-19*

Mnóstwo funkcji a kreatywność rośnie podczas używania.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We’re really glad to hear the features are helping boost your creativity. If you ever have suggestions or need support, feel free to reach out at support@apprime.studio. We’re always here to help.

### 3/5 — (´-`　)……

*2025-11-03*

スクロール前提の画面作りたいのだがテンプレートの下を引き伸ばせない上課金しないとプレビュー不可で、初心者の私はどうやって作るか不明

課金したら使いやすそう！

**Developer response:** Hi there!  
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience.
We'd like to note that with our free version you can create unlimited projects and sketches. You can check Mockup's User Guide for all the details on how to use the app.
We’re glad to hear you found the app easy to use overall, and we hope to make it even smoother for you in future updates.

### 2/5 — Good…but…long-way to go.

*2025-10-27*

This is a positive move towards a mock-up builder, but there is still much improvement needed. It doesn’t offer enough flexibility. You can’t adjust sizes or orientations, among other things. They should incorporate a variety of element patterns. At the moment, it provides only basic elements, so for more intricate projects, you have to create your own. Consequently, you find yourself using more advanced design tools on your laptop, which are quicker and more adaptable.

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us! We really appreciate it. 

We'd like to note that we’re working on expanding our element sets and improving flexibility. Your suggestions are helpful, and updates addressing these areas are planned for future releases. 

We hope you’ll continue exploring Mockup with upcoming releases.

### 3/5 — Add Columns and Add Rows

*2025-10-21*

Can you increase the number of columns and rows to at least 50 by 50? When I actually work, the current 11 by 11 feels too limited. I’ve already paid, but I’m thinking about canceling my subscription because the space is too small.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback! We completely understand where you’re coming from. 

We’d like to note that on certain devices, there’s already an option to increase the canvas size under Settings > Advanced, and we’ll be adding this to more devices soon.

We took note of your review and sent it to our team. Thanks again for your patience and support!

### 1/5 — Library Elements Not Working

*2025-10-12*

Library elements not working on ios26

**Developer response:** Thank you for letting us know! Could you please confirm which iOS version you’re using? 

We’re looking into this and want to get it up and running as quickly as possible. We really appreciate your patience and feedback!

### 3/5 — Crash

*2025-10-10, version 4.0.3*

I paid for it, crashes when I try to open any file / completely broken for me at file open it crashes

### 3/5 — Not that good

*2025-08-04, version 3.16.1*

There is no tutorial. I can’t click manage subscription, it was promising but please fix it

### 1/5 — Can't change language

*2025-07-25, version 3.15.2*

I can't change language from Japanese to English...
But it always pops up the 3 day free trial. So language is paid content?
There's no language switch button in the setting !

### 1/5 — Useless for web app mockups

*2025-07-03*

Dumb app, dumb me that paid for the subscription. It might be good for mobile apps, but for single page applications it is just a lite version of what can be done in Powerpoint or Google slides. Add a rectangle, oval, line, delete them, move them, add text, group with shape. Wasted money and time.

**Developer response:** We’re really sorry to hear that Mockup didn’t meet your expectations. While it's true that the app is especially popular for mobile app ideation, many users also find it helpful for web design. 

That said, your feedback is valid and valuable to us. We're continuously working on bringing better versions of the app, and comments like yours help guide us. 

Thank you for giving it a try, and we’re sorry it wasn’t the right fit for your workflow.

### 3/5 — En Français svp, in English please

*2025-06-03*

En Français svp, in English please

**Developer response:** As of the latest update, the app is now localized into more languages including French. Stay tuned for that and thank you for your feedback!

### 4/5 — 竟见如下↓

*2025-05-03*

希望能添加中文就方便了，英文还能看懂一些。

**Developer response:** As of the latest update, the app is localized into multiple languages including Chinese. Thank you for your feedback!

### 1/5 — Pricing

*2026-08-13*

Please put a price on the app up front. I hate downloading an app to check it out and then finding out to use it, I now have to pay for it. What a waste of time.

### 1/5 — No MacOS Templates

*2026-07-28, version 4.3.1*

App Store says this is helpful for MacOS design, but there are no installed templates for it.

### 1/5 — This is bad

*2026-07-14*

Bad

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. We’d love to understand what didn’t work so we can improve the experience for you.

### 1/5 — Complete waste of $ if you bought it!

*2026-06-11, version 4.3*

This application is worse than hand coding on the iPhone. The UI is even less intuitive than Liquid Glass was last year. I have no idea how you can list this as being available for 4 years olds. Hahaha!!! There is no way a designer with 10 years of experience is going to be able to open this up and create anything meaningful that will at some point result in a mockup in front of a design team and definitely not a production app.

Why would someone use this? It takes 3xs longer to do anything in this app. Like I said you’d be better off just using a terminal or better yet just as Claude or Codex to build the mockup for you! This app has no use case. It’s a time waster for people who want to play but don’t expect to be proud of anything you produce. 

It will simply enrage you and eventually you’ll just delete it. 


I hope there isn’t an entire co
Pant with investors behind this app. That would be scary.

### 1/5 — 什么功能也米有，好意思自动扣费

*2026-04-26*

开通时候埋坑，什么功能都没有，体验完就直接扣掉 100元，你倒是有点内容也行啊，啥也没有，就 两张垃圾原型图 ，真的服了

**Developer response:** 感谢你的反馈。Mockup 提供免费版本，并包含示例项目用于体验核心功能。部分高级功能需要订阅解锁，同时我们也提供免费试用，期间不会自动收费，除非在试用结束后选择继续订阅。
如果有任何不清楚的地方，欢迎联系我们，我们很乐意帮助说明。你的反馈也会帮助我们不断改进体验。

### 1/5 — Funktioniert aber Schlecht

*2026-04-22*

Man kann die App, die man Designt hat, nur mit einem Premium Abo testen. Absolut unmöglich!

**Developer response:** Danke für dein Feedback. Mockup bietet eine kostenlose Version, während Funktionen wie Prototyping Teil der Premium-Pläne sind — inklusive kostenloser Testphase. Das hilft uns, die App kontinuierlich weiterzuentwickeln und zu verbessern.

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2026-03-14*

It doesnt work I want to add a Screenshot on a Mockup but the screen still always above

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. You can actually enable “Mask in Frames” under the “Style” section. If you have any questions, please contact us at support@apprime.studio.

### 1/5 — product not good

*2026-01-17, version 4.1*

avoid buying this until they work out the bugs

### 1/5 — Lost a month of work	Backup Doesn’t work

*2026-01-02*

Closed Mockup, shut down my machine, came back an hour later only to find an old version of the sketch I’d worked on for over a month and backed up last week, replaced by a version from several months ago.  Look in backups and no sign of the mockup I worked on.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review and for already contacting us via email. As explained there, our team has carefully reviewed what happened and is actively investigating the issue to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
We truly appreciate your patience and the opportunity to look into this more closely. We’re committed to improving this experience moving forward.

### 5/5 — How Much I Am Enjoying Mockup

*2026-01-21, version 4.1.1*

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — Solid, Easy, and Beautiful!

*2025-08-18*

My experience on this app for iPad has been outstanding. From the wireframing to the swift SF symbol library, this app rocks. The gestures, project / sketch layout works wonderfully too.

I’ve only experienced one issue, and it is ongoing. I’m a subscriber to the service, and unfortunately my sketches and projects are not syncing between my phone and my iPad. I believe this is an expected feature, but if this is still a WIP that may just be a gap in my understanding. Highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words and for recommending Mockup! We’re delighted to hear you’ve been enjoying the app as a whole!

Regarding syncing, please reach out to us at support@apprime.studio so we can look into this for you directly in detail. Our team will be happy to help and make sure everything is working as expected.

Thanks again for being a subscriber and for sharing your experience.

### 5/5 — Génial !

*2025-04-20*

Indispensable dans un workflow de design avant de passer sur Figma ou Sketch.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the kind words! We're glad Mockup is a valuable part of your design workflow.

### 5/5 — My1stAppbuild

*2025-01-23, version 3.12.3*

“…im just begging to learn about app. Building, Mockup seems like the perfect place to start and it is pretty fun so far !”   -s.lee

### 5/5 — Hi Mockup!

*2025-01-17, version 3.12.3*

Best App ever!

### 5/5 — Really good

*2024-12-04, version 3.12.2*

I am using it on my iPhone and iPad — and it does the job!

### 5/5 — Very good app 😊

*2024-09-03*

Free version is good enough to start creating wireframes, the app has everything that is needed, it’s very convenient and easy to use!! So far it’s AMAZING 🤩 I think I’ll get the lifetime access, and may I add pricing options are very reasonable which makes me not only grateful as a customer but also more inclined to purchase! Love it and recommend it! You should be very proud for creating such an awesome product 🥰

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear that you find the app convenient and easy to use for creating wireframes.

Having customers like you makes us proud of what we do. Thank you for recommending our product, and we’re excited to continue providing you with a great experience!

### 5/5 — 软件很不错，符合我的工作流习惯

*2024-07-26*

额外提几点建议：
1.增加icloud用户共享，方便和同伴一起协作绘制
2.增加简体中文翻译，目前翻译的工作量并不大，这样对中国用户能更友好
3.右侧的UI编辑器面板可以设计的再好用一点，当前还是不够优雅美观，最好是可以借用sketch或Apple等原生UI的组合排版，像sketch、numbers等等的编辑器UI
4.librarys可以支持用户更多的自定义组件管理的样式，像二级分组、三级分组、字符样式分组等等，便于管理，不用像figma或sketch那样的精细化，但需要有大致的管理
5.支持按需导出透明格式的图片，用户可以自己选导出哪几个画板
6.关于手写字体以及手绘线条、图形的机器优化，写字和绘画都是用笔进行绘制的，但是这是两种不同的媒介，人对字体承载的信息识别比插画要高的多，所以提高机器学习优化字体和基础图形的绘制更重要
7.最后一个是关于场景使用的探讨，像我的工作流是需要绘制线框图和流程图，然后再转移到sketch进行设计，这过程中，需要有大量的控件或者功能规则描述在画板上，也有大量的简易流程绘制在画板上，有没有可以放置这部分内容的画板空间，而不是一直新增默认的一个web或iphone的画板

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback and for your detailed suggestions. We took note of all of them and we’ll pass them to our team for consideration in future updates.

### 5/5 — The improvements seemed to have helped your reviews and us!

*2024-06-24*

Thank you for coming up with this app. I recently discovered this software and I’m pumped that it will significantly accelerate my workflow and ideation process. Love the rapid sketching and iteration, allowing me to refine ideas swiftly before moving on to a high-fidelity prototype, saving valuable time and much hair-pulling and cursing. The capability to transform sketches into clickable objects and create reusable components from this is brilliant. Now I have even more reasons to utilise my iPad Pro and stylus and not just use my iPad for Netflix!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that our app is significantly helping your workflow and ideation process.
Our goal has always been to make the creative process as smooth and efficient as possible, and it's fantastic to hear that our app is supplying that for you.
