Flowella

Flowella is a lightweight Air-based application whose purpose is to help designers and developers generate interaction prototypes without having to possess the necessary skills for writing code.

This particular software application is able to put together several of your graphic representations of your program’s views and states, and create links between them in order to build up prototypes.

The layout is defined by an overall simplicity where you can drag and drop images directly into the Library panel. The tool displays a thumbnail preview of the uploaded pictures, which represent screen mockup photos.

Flowella gives you the possibility to populate your library with the images that you want to be included in the prototype. Using the drag-and-drop support, you may easily insert the desired items into the workspace in order to shape up the flow.

What’s more, you can connect the views by linking them with series of key presses or touch events, delete the desired view, preview the flow in a dedicated panel, and zoom in or out of the prototype.

When it comes to exporting options, you may save the prototype to WRT, QML or Adobe Flash file format and run it on your mobile phone.

There’s support for only a few tweaking parameters that help you pick the desired device (Nokia 5800, N97, N95, N900, 2710, or a custom one), select the keypad (numeric or QWERTY), enable the touchscreen option, as well as alter the screen width and height. You can also work with preset hotkeys that help you quickly activate several features of the application.

Flowella delivers a straightforward software solution for helping you create prototyped screens and interactions which can be easily run on a mobile device.
