Worthless – Framer Preview Review

Framer, what are you doing? This is a vital part of my workflow, but this app doesn’t work at all. I’m connected to the same WiFi network as my MacBook – doesn’t do anything. It doesn’t even register the name of my WiFi network, just says “unknown.” I connect via USB – nothing happens. When I scan the QR code at least something happens, but that something is just a blank white screen. Eventually it says the network timed out, but I’m not even sure what the “network” was doing in the first place. Last but not least, swiping up from the bottom to show controls is terrible UX now that the iPhone X exists. I don’t understand how an otherwise great product could have such a glaring problem with one of the vital aspects of a product design workflow. I was excited about all that Framer X promises to be, but it looks like I’ll be letting my free trial expire. I can’t pay for a product that doesn’t provide basic functionality.
