Recent updates: iPhone support, notes, a new look and lots more

We received so much positive feedback from the changes we made earlier this week that I wasn’t able to finish writing about it until today.

And, even then, so many things have been added or updated that I can’t really go in-depth about each one. But, I’ll go ahead and quickly list them all out.

  • All new marketing design (including this fancy new blog!) and a better organized, tighter admin area UI.
  • Support for iPhone mockups. This is a biggie, we’re the first webapp to support iPhone prototyping. We’re really proud of this feature. Give it a try.
  • Added the ability to control not only the horizontal, but also the vertical alignment of any mockup. Making it possible to center anything, from banner ads to illustrations to photos.
  • Notes, a new way to leave feedback on specific parts of a mockup. Now, you can either be general with your feedback or use notes to highlight every gritty detail.
  • Can now view both your current version’s comments as well as every past version’s archived comments. This makes it much easier to see what has already been said about older versions of your designs.
  • Better control over your version history. Now if you have a small change that you don’t want saved as an entirely new version, just click the checkbox when you upload the new version and it will overwrite the old version instead of save a new one.
  • Mockup specific settings, allowing you to have different backgrounds and alignment for the entire project, just like before, but also from mockup to mockup. This is really good for multiple versions of a project’s new design that all need different backrounds, or for a project that combines website designs, banner ad designs, illustrations, etc. all together.
  • And tons of other behind the scenes, super detailed stuff, that probably only we notice but that has made Mocksup a better product.

Wow, we should’ve released this thing in chunks, huh? But, now that it’s finally done, we hope you find it even more useful than before. Throughout the next couple of weeks we’ll have blog posts diving into more detail about specific features.

Until then, there are still a few kinks that we’re ironing out, so if you have a problem with any of the new stuff or a suggestion for how a feature might be even better please do drop us a note.
