## What is Previs Pro?

Create 3D storyboards in your iPad or iPhone using simple taps, swipes, and gestures that you already know.

Filmmakers, directors, cinematographers, video creators, and screenwriters know that you MUST storyboard your shots and scenes BEFORE you roll camera.

Previsualize every shot in your scene AND every scene in your script.

Experiment - with 2D and 3D real-time views -  to find the very best shot for your film or video. 

PURCHASE OPTIONS

Annual - under US$15 per month average
Lifetime - own it forever

STORYBOARD FAST

With Previs Pro, quickly build a 3D set populated with buildings, props, and characters. Position your camera and lights for the perfect shot.

Add a second shot - perhaps a Close-Up or Cutaway -  by just moving the camera into position. Add more shots until your scene is complete. 

** Final Draft Import **

Import every scene and character from your Final Draft script. You’re halfway finished before you even start. Works with Final Draft 12!

STORYBOARD EASY

Experimenting with different types of shots is a breeze. Simply move the camera around the 3D set until you find your shot. Pan left, tilt up, dolly in, or zoom. Your view of the shot is always updated in real-time. What you see is truly what you get.

STORYBOARD ANYWHERE

Storyboard where and when inspiration strikes.

If you're in the middle of production and a shot isn't working, then pull out your iPhone and design a shot that does work. Send and share the new shot with your entire cast and crew.  The best storyboard is the one in your pocket — that you can change, and share whenever necessary.

** Augmented Reality **

With our A/R feature, you can place your virtual props and characters into a real-world location - the streets of London, on a bridge in Paris, or your own backyard - and start building shots in the same exact location where you plan to shoot. 

Can't get there to use A/R? No problem. Import a photo or image of your location into your shot and use it as a "proxy". It's the next best thing to being there. 

STORYBOARD LIKE THE PROS

At some point, you need to turn your shots in Previs Pro into storyboards for your cast and crew. If you're a director, you need to create a shot list. If you're a cinematographer or DP, you need information on camera type, lenses, and aspect ratios. If you're doing it all yourself, then you need all this information. 

With Previs Pro, you can export storyboards as printable PDF's or shareable graphics files. You can include as much rich data as needed, or show nothing but the Camera View.

### 1/5 — Anmeldung funktioniert nicht…

*2026-07-27*

Ich kann die App nicht benutzen ohne mich anzumelden und die Anmeldung funktioniert nicht.

### 1/5 — Crashes on startup

*2026-07-17*

The App Store says my iPad 6 should run this, my OS is up to date, but it crashes on start up. Shame, because this would have been perfect for my projects.

### 5/5 — Why is sign in now required for some features?

*2026-06-15*

Some recent update added sign in to apple for features that didn’t previously need that. Why? Where was that noted on the update? Why is apple sign in needed for a timeline? OLD review: Finally Animatics! Animatics in v3 is a solid update. Easy enough to make adjustments and fine-tune. Would love to see more features in the animatic part (keyframe smoothing, walk animations…) and it would be great if there was the option for multiple cameras in one setup (like camera A, cam B) that would show not only on the storyboard at the same time, but also show the first and last keyframe in the storyboard printout as well. Great update and making 2.5 free is huge.

**Developer response:** Because timeline holds the AI and Share functionality. In order to keep that straight (all of it and let you password protect your shared projects, talk to external AI server) we need to be able to verify who you are outside of the app, so you need an account.  Hope that helps explain!

### 5/5 — Had this great app since 2022 and it’s consistently improved every year

*2026-05-28*

I bought this app in 2022 and was encouraged at the time by the constant development and high number of updates. I find it intuitive to use and the use of the iPad platform offers great advantages over other desktop based tools like Frame Forge that I’d already tried. The main two advantages are; touch control which just works so well for 3D movement compared to a mouse and AR mode using the iPad camera. This AR mode allows you to move around in live 3D space and take photos or videos with your characters composited with  real world backgrounds. I don’t know any other tool which does this so smoothly on location. When running on an IPad Pro as the company recommends I never experienced the crashing mentioned in other reviews and now 4 years later after multiple quality updates the software still runs smoothly on that 2021 iPad Pro. I felt compelled to write this review after seeing some very out of date reviews mentioning crashing and feature requests that I know have since been met. Their app update list gives you a very good idea how many strong features have been added over the 5 or so years of the product. Recently I’ve started using it to create 3D storyboard frames as references for my occasional AI filmaking. This way you can the exact framing you want in Previs Pro and use that to ‘prompt’ the newest AI ‘Omni’ models like Seedance and Kling much better than text alone. A very strong tool for traditional filmmakers and AI filmmakers alike.

### 5/5 — 手机跟电脑可以互通数据吗，如果可以该怎么操作？

*2026-05-20*

手机跟电脑可以互通数据吗，如果可以该怎么操作？

### 2/5 — Downfall

*2026-05-15*

Another case of downfall of a good app. Day by day... upgrade by upgrade it getting worst… I don’t know is it the grid or loosing interest by the developers. It was one of my favourite app… time to say good bye!

### 5/5 — 让镜头瞬间简单了

*2026-04-16*

一直在用这个软件，解决了拍摄前需要分镜的问题。

### 2/5 — Very slow on MacBook Pro (M2 Pro)

*2026-03-04*

Great & simple software, but it is very slow on macOS. Much faster on iPadOS and iOS.

### 4/5 — PDF Import!

*2026-02-06*

I LOVE Previs Pro. But, I don't use Final Draft, and exporting an .fdx file is just unnecessary for my workflow. HOWEVER, if you integrated with Scriptation for pdf import support (much like how they do for so many other apps), that would be a game changer! They can export scene data, down to props and characters with tagging, and if Previs Pro could read that data and populate the scene/character info, that would save me from doing everything manually!

### 1/5 — File corruption and error

*2025-12-28, version 3.2.0*

Not only will Previs pro not let delete and imported project, it lost all my previous work. I am student and 119$ is a lot for me. I shoot tomorrow and have no new lighting diagrams thanks to previs. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Worst ever!!
