Flinto

What do you like best?

It's great for mocking up effects like animations, transitions without the issues of a very heavy program like after effects. I think performance wise, Flinto is great and allows me to incorporate animations and effects into my designs without affecting the overall performance on my system.

What do you dislike?

When I first started using it, I was still struggling to understand all the tools. I think there is a better way to onboard a user, perhaps adding some visual cues that notify or emphasize on what tools do what.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

It's a great solution if you're looking to make quick animations or present specific types of effects for components or interactions.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

When I am handing off my designs to development, often times - our prototyping tool does not have animating capabilities. I utilize flinto to create those animations and share it with the team so it communicates visually what I am looking to implement.
