Please note: this is a companion to Sketch for Mac, and requires it to function.

Sketch Mirror lets you preview your Sketch designs on your iOS devices.

After connecting to it from your Mac, you can swipe on your device to navigate between Pages and Artboards.

Sketch Mirror scales your designs up or down intelligently to fit the screen resolution of your iOS device, and also lets you zoom manually to inspect individual pixels.

You can run Sketch Mirror on any number of iOS devices and connect as many of them as you want to one Mac client. Preview your iPad-sized Artboards on one device while your iPhone mirrors the smaller Artboards.

Pros and cons of Sketch Mirror app for iPhone and iPad

Sketch Mirror app good for

Thanks for the update, it goes way more faster and now i can work in a coffee cause i dont need a speed connexion anymore to work with mirror. BUT, when i have a canvas with an height higher than 1136px (iphone 5) the preview is zoomed - and i dont find a way to still have a 100% zoom. Anyone? when i double tap on my iphone screen, it goes with a huge zoom :/ Hope we can still work with a long height canvas and scroll on my phone. Thanks
it would be nice mirroring in both directions. I would like to use my Apple Pencil on my iPad to draw vectors in sketch. Maybe we will be able to do this in a future update?
Syncing is now 100% reliable. Canvases scale properly to fit devices. USB mirror is also really great. Easily heads and shoulders above version 1.x of this app.
Great update, USB connection working flawlessly and the new interface is great. Incredibly handy to see your UI designs on the fly without having to build the Xcode project each time.
Thank you for finally updating Sketch Mirror. It now works just as intended! Keep up the good work!
There are no other words. This is the perfect companion to Sketch. There is no batter way to do mobile design.

Some bad moments

This update has changed the zoom to fix it at certain intervals breaking the functionality of the app. This means that in certain cases I cant zoom an artboard to fit the size of the screen. A 1080x1920 artboard doesnt fit the screen of an iPhone 6+. Please allow zooming to any size.
I connected to both wifi and via USB and it still doesnt work.
Tried mirroring, get a white band across middle of screen.. please fix it and I will update my review
The latest update was fantastic in terms of performance, but broke some important use cases for me. I cant view a screen in 100% or 200% scale and cant scroll tall images. This breaks my design routine completely: I cant determine if the button would be right size for an iPhone 5 when using iPhone 6, cant design long pages and cant preview mobile websites.
I try to fit long image to screen but it becomes either too small or too big.
Noooo! I need 100% width and scroll. It was such a real app screen, but now it is just a photo of a screen:(
