What Flinto is

Flinto is a paid prototyping tool for creating interactive, animated app designs. Flinto for Mac includes a Transition Designer for screen transitions and a Behavior Designer for micro-interactions. It imports Sketch and Figma designs, including vector shapes and editable text, then adds gestures, scrolling, spring and cubic-bezier easing, haptics, sound effects, video layers and 3D rotation. Prototypes can be previewed on an iOS device, shared as Flinto files for viewing in the free iOS viewer or Mac app, and recorded as video or GIF. Recordings can also be sent to Dribbble. Flinto Lite is a web service for turning existing screen designs into iOS and Android prototypes, with visual screen linking, retained links when replacing screens, app-like transitions, fixed headers and footers, and scrolling. Flinto for Mac requires macOS 10.14 or newer; the iOS viewer requires iOS 12 or newer. The Mac app keeps content on local storage, while Lite uploads remain on the maker’s servers unless shared. Pricing starts at $99, paid once for Flinto for Mac, with a 14-day trial.
