Reality Mechanic has recently launched a companion product to Balsamiq Mockups to help Android developers quickly prototype their UX designs, enabling them to get early feedback from customers and clients. Mockups2Android(m2a) is an Android application that reads Mockup files and converts them into working Android prototypes.  Buttons, checkboxes, lists, maps, camera controls and more all come to life, as you designed them, without the need for a developer. A UX designer can then use an actual Android phone for user testing before committing to expensive development iterations. If you need to make a change to the UX flow, simply complete it in Mockups and m2a will do the rest. It’s that easy! m2a supports all screen sizes and is perfect for prototyping on phones and tablets.

Below an overview of how Mockups2Android works :

About Reality Mechanic

Reality Mechanic is a start up based out of Auckland, New Zealand. We are passionate about streamlining the design process between concept and beautiful UX. Mockup2Android arose out of our need to quickly demonstrate and revise UI designs to our customers. For mobile applications, Balsamiq wasn’t cutting it, so m2a was born.  Our immediate plans are to complete our control support in m2a in addition to completing an iPhone version.
