@samrye_enspiral Have a look at my other comment and let me know if you have any questions 😃
ProtoPie is a fast and easy tool for prototyping mobile, web and desktop applications. I really appreciate that there is a windows version which now has integration with Adobe XD, which is great. These days it just feels as though good design tools are only available on mac and windows is always an after thought. ProtoPie is a very high quality product that I think competes with tools like Framer, Proto.io, Flinto and Principle, just to name a few.
Can we utilize device camera and microphone? What about integrating with database or .csv file for real data display?
@scott_valentine Camera + database not yet. However, you can use the microphone indeed 😃
A tool that changed the way my entire company worked. Developers love getting prototypes from Protopie and the Sales team love using them to show off new features that are in the works. Win win!
Their support guy Fredo is very responsive and helpful. And they're working to improve all the time with feature requests.
Pros:Great tool for creating very detailed interactive prototypes. You can utilize all gesture interactions that you would find on a real phone.
Cons:An improvement for the future would be exporting an animations specification.
Some examples:
- Facebook VR prototype (using tilt sensor)

- Shazam prototype (using sound sensor)
https://share.protopie.io/TWKVMM...
- ProtoPie x Arduino prototype
- ProtoPie x littleBits: NEST prototype
- ProtoPie x littleBits: RC car prototype
Fredo from Team ProtoPie here! First, thanks @mproff for hunting us 😃
ProtoPie 3.9 is our most extensive and impressive release since launching ProtoPie commercially last year.
What is ProtoPie?
ProtoPie is a highly interactive prototyping tool for designers to turn their ideas into prototypes that feel real, in the easiest way possible.
We believe that designers should be able to make prototypes that come close to the end product they are designing for. A prototype is not only about how everything looks but more about how a user interacts with your product. Whatever product you are designing for. This is where ProtoPie comes into play.
With ProtoPie, you can make highly interactive prototypes that feel like the end product. It's the only prototyping tool on macOS and Windows that covers the whole spectrum of digital products. From mobile apps to desktop apps and websites. From the in-car interface to smart-home applications.
What makes ProtoPie different?
➡ Unique conceptual model. ProtoPie is fundamentally different from others due to its conceptual model. The way you make prototypes is basically the same way as you would explain with words. Hence, the way ProtoPie works comes close to human natural language. This means a very gradual learning curve.
➡ Interaction-focused, not animation-focused.
➡ Utilize sensors in smart devices, e.g. tilt, sound, compass. All code-free.
➡ Create prototypes that can communicate with each other... across devices. Perfect for IoT.
ProtoPie 3.9 enables designers to create prototypes with interactions that are more dynamic than you are used to. Still all code-free. The new features give your prototypes that extra edge and allow them to be more advanced, sophisticated, 'smarter' and ultimately more realistic and close to the end product. Still with the ease that ProtoPie has been offering.
If you have any questions, please shoot away!

One of my favorite prototyping tool. Reminds me of the fantastic Pixate app (killed by Google) 😢
Pros:Powerful & fast, almost zero learning curve, no BS!
Cons:The "share" page is super clunky with unnecessary stuff and forced branding.
Is it possible to type something in the prototypes? Like typing a name in a sign in page? I don't see any ressources about this and it would be a killer feature for me.
I would like to try your product but I'm so in love with Principle... I need something to make the switch.
@agathemametz Yup! One of the new features mentioned. If you need something, there’s a whole lot there. Check the examples posted earlier ;)
@sergiy_myrko With ProtoPie, you can make highly interactive prototypes that feel like the end product.

From the in-car interface to smart-home applications.
ProtoPie enable designers to build sophisticated Ixd and motion. The team behind take user's feedback seriously and constantly improving the app.
ProtoPie is actually a fantastic piece of software with almost no learning curve and easy for newcomers to do as they wish.
Best tool ever, I frigging love how easy is for me to create a very intuitive and dynamic app design. To test my UI and improve it! Also they have updated the tool so many times and took my comments and I guess all other users comments in consideration in order to improve it, I really appreciate that!! so amazing!!
Overall a fantastic tool for adding advanced interactions to prototyes from XD and Sketch.
Extreemly useful for developing IoT interacs between different devices.
Pros:very powerful new features which will allow designers to create richer interactions and more realistic simulations.
Cons:limited onlne learning material and example
Recently I tried my hand on Protopie, it is one powerful tool for mobile and web prototyping. Protopie is not getting the visibility it deserves. I hope more designers starts using it.
Overall nice update. keep rocking!!
So far the best Prototyping tool i enjoy using, and the new features allowing variables,inputs and formulas is just great and perfect
I've been using Protopie for years and it's amazing. The power and flexibility that it's brought to me and my team is pretty amazing. There isn't a single prototyping app that comes close to what you can do here. You can build as complex or as simple a prototype as you'd like. I've used it to work up full app flows with a crazy amount of conditional interactions and situations. It's the best thing you can get without having a developer build a workable app for you.
Pros:Remarkably easy to use without sacrificing features or power
Cons:Slight learning curve, less visually pleasing or clean in it's UI than other common prototyping apps
