Pros and cons of Form Viewer app for iPhone and iPad
Form Viewer app good for
Would be cool if it could work with landscape orientation out of the box. I have to open the App in portrait on my iPad then lock the screen rotation then rotate.
When app is launched on landscaped iPad orientation of main view is wrong.
This is the interaction creation tool the design and development community has been waiting for.
Some bad moments
It seems like a useful tool but I am unable to connect any devices (iPhone, iPad mini, iPad) to the program. All devices are on the same wifi network and logged in with the same apple ID.
Form version 1.1.0 (4) (OS X)
Yosemite 10.10.1 (14B25)
iOS 8.1.2 (12B440)
Same Wi-Fi network. This is a Time Capsule router. Double-checked the firewall settings, Form is in the "allowed" list.
It used to work with my old iPhone 4S. But now, No devices detected.
Tested with an iPad 2. Same issue.
How to debug this issue?
Thanks.
After Form got acquired by Google, we have got only material design patches and ripple effects. There has been no investment into fixing fundamental functions such as Text Input. Yet another company getting killed by Google. But hey at least we have patches for material design on iOS. The only issue is that Material Design is garbage and not suitable for iOS at all. Go figure.
I agree with phillipamour.
It also doesnt recognize my 6s ever.
Would love to start using Form, but it will not recognize my iPhone 6. Both my phone and computer are on the same wifi network, but it won’t show up on my mac app when Form Viewer is launched.
Pixate picks up my device right away, but not Form. Looked around for a solution but can’t seem to find anything. Please fix.
