Posted to Liveshare is dead, freehand is shit. I need alternatives., in reply to Stephen Olmstead , Jan 11, 2018 Posted to Spot the differences (Instagram UI, one year apart), in reply to Dean Hudson , Jan 05, 2018 Definitely. Apples-to-apples, the content has hardly changed.
Posted to What do you think about the big-font header in iOS 11?, in reply to Phil Rau , Sep 22, 2017 Similar-looking apps are definitely common when system UI patterns are followed. Whitespace is a great tool for hierarchy.
I bet it's also a big improvement when unlocking your phone and landing in an app you left open hours ago. Lets you quickly identify where you are after you've forgotten the context of how you got there.

Interesting. Yeah, I also had no idea any of this was possible.
FWIW: I tried out Freehand for the first time the other day. Went through its whole tutorial, felt it struggle loading a prototype with dozens of artboards, didn't see any of these features at a glance, and left quickly.
Kudos on the helpful response.
