Principle

Principle 6.39 is now available, with support for Sketch 2025

@Betraydan Open the Principle app, then click the "Principle" menu, then "Check For Updates".

@PrincipleApp I renewed my license but the app version downloaded from the site is v6.19. How do I get the latest version?

@DanielcHooper is @PrincipleApp still being actively worked on?

@gangtomtweets Yes, chromium issue here: issues.chromium.org/issues/3556056…

@PrincipleApp Was the bug affecting only specific chrome versions or browser/os combinations?

@PrincipleApp The externally shared prototypes are not loading properly in embed mode in my Chrome browser. Is there a known issue or something?

@ValentinPlanche We just pushed an update to the web player, try refreshing the page. If you still have an issue, email the url that isn't loading for you. support@principleformac.com

I'm having problems with @PrincipleApp prototypes shared on the web. They barely weigh 10/15MB and don't load properly in Chrome or Safari. Is anyone else having problems displaying prototypes in the browser from a link?

Today we introduce the first in a series of improvements to sharing: Overview Mode! Explore and examine your designs on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS.

@nickpixtxt Figma import only uses Figmas servers. Maybe theirs were overwhelmed, which can sometimes happen

@PrincipleApp Are your servers down? My principle's refusing to link up with Figma.

@saefamai If you want clear touch areas, use a clear fill instead of 0 opacity. 0% opacity layers don't receive touches

@PrincipleApp The min opacity of primitive shapes layer has been forced to 1% lately. It used to touch 0% earlier. I used to create touchable hotspots at 0% opacity earlier & now with 1% there is slight colour difference which shows like a patch on different devices.

Now available: Principle 6.34, with share to web links that don't expire, reduction in how often you have to sign back into Figma, and a few bug fixes

@saefamai You should've told us! Earlier this week someone mentioned this annoyed them, so we changed it. Let us know what else could be improved!

@PrincipleApp Earlier i had to export the HTML & host it separately via Vercel. For the non-expiring links. Just saying. Thanks for this update!

Old versions of the Principle Mac app will continue to tell you that the link only works for 30 days, but you can ignore that. Mac app will be updated shortly.

Documents that you share to web no longer expire after 30 days! They will continue to work as long as you your license has been renewed within the last year.

We’re looking to hire a graphics programmer to work with us on @PrincipleApp Description below. DM for additional details. RTs appreciated

@JoshuaGilmer I posted this before I heard about the invision announcement 😬 no shade intended. Amazing coincidence. — @DanielcHooper

@PrincipleApp I can’t help but feel like this is throwing shade at InVision 😅. Glad you’re still at it!

Still here; been quietly working on new stuff coming out this year👀

@derlukasg If you send us feedback, we will incorporate it. (bottom right of page) #contactUsAnchor2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">principle.app/contact.html#c…

I‘d really wish @principleapp would get more love. Still the fastest way for me to very quickly visualize smooth interactions. But there are just so many small quality of life improvements missing that it’s annoying.

@MartinTellinger We've put out 10 updates this year already. You can check the change long for details. principle.app/changeLog.html

@principleapp Is there any plan to update the app or is the development already finished? This was the tool where I could do everything I ever wanted. Unlike the others.

@yanchauchau This is fixed in 6.29.5! Thanks for letting us know!

@principleapp "Clip sublayers" seems to have stopped working in the preview but shows up fine in the workspace?

@Betraydan do you think you'll have the chance to send a .prd file to us soon? We're not able to reproduce the issue without the file. We'd love to have it fixed in the release that's about to go out!

@danielchooper @principleapp there seems to be a layering bug with text in a group not showing in the simulator. I have the latest version running, Version 6.23 (6028)
