MockApp, the most successful piece of tweetware* ever made, just released version 1.0, which is a huge upgrade over v0.7. For those who used a previous version of MockApp, you will barely recognize your favorite iPhone prototyping tool given the number of aspects that have been (hopefully) improved:
- A large number of iPhone UI elements have been added and/or vectorized. I think I can now safely assert that MockApp 1.0 includes the most comprehensive vector iPhone UI library of any easy iPhone prototyping tool out there (no, the SDK is not a prototyping tool that my mom could use).
- The library file is now organized and commented based on the ultimate authority: Apple’s iPhone Human Interface guidelines. It even shows examples of some UI elements on an iPhone held by Steve Jobs’ hand (OK, maybe that wasn’t his hand).
- The template file, where you create your mockup, now features a shiny iPhone as backdrop for your app screens with working Home button and all.
- The template file now supports vertical and horizontal iPhone screen mockups.
- And a lot more…
And best of all… the price for this fantastic piece of Tweetware is still the same: one tweet or one blog post (or facebook update, etc.) And no: there are no free upgrades: in other words, if you tweeted for MockApp 0.7 or earlier, you must tweet again for MockApp 1.0. But the good news is… this time you’ll actually feel like tweeting! 
Enjoy MockApp 1.0 and do email me with all your feedback, love letters, hate mail, etc. I particularly like hearing from people like my mom who can not open Photoshop or reprogram a TV remote. They help me make MockApp bullet proof for everyone.
* I haven’t seen any other Tweetware yet.
Good idea but I see I need a newer version of iWork than ‘08. I’ll have to use the PowerPoint version I guess.
Yup… Sorry. You’re not the only one contacting me with this issue. I’ll try and export to Keynote ‘08 to see if it needs any other modifications. If not, I promise to post the Keynote ‘08 version very soon. Hey, I’ll do anything to avoid having people use Powerpoint!
