The all-new V4
is available now
We rebuilt Design Mirror from the ground up — focused on the #1 pain point: connection reliability. Download it now and try the next-gen live preview.
What's new in V4
A full rewrite centered on connection reliability, plus brand-new native apps and faster sync.
USB connection (no Wi-Fi)
No usable Wi-Fi or a restricted network? Just plug in a cable and preview live — faster and rock solid.
Brand-new native apps
Both iOS and Android were rewritten natively (SwiftUI / Kotlin) — smoother, more battery-friendly, with a reimagined connection flow.
One installer, multiple tools
A single desktop install sets up the Photoshop / Illustrator / Sketch / Adobe XD plugins; the Figma / MasterGo / JSDesign plugins ship as a zip — import once and go.
Faster live sync
Tile-based delta sync transfers only what changed — quicker updates, less bandwidth, smooth even for long pages.
Multi-device preview
Connect several phones / tablets to one computer and compare how your design fits across screen sizes.
Download Design Mirror V4
One desktop installer sets up everything — the Photoshop / Illustrator / Sketch / XD plugins plus the background helper. Then install the mobile app and start previewing.
Version 4.0.14 · restart your design tool after installing
Windows desktop
Windows 10 / 11. Includes the Photoshop / Illustrator / Sketch / XD plugins and the helper.
macOS desktop
Intel and Apple Silicon (M-series). Includes all plugins and the helper.
iOS app
Now on the App Store — requires iOS 17.0 or later. Search for “Design Mirror” or tap to download.
Figma / MasterGo / JSDesign plugin pack
These three plugins are published in their official plugin marketplaces — just search for Design Mirror and install (install the desktop app above first). The zip below is only a fallback for when a marketplace is hard to reach.
Install & get started
Four steps — from install to seeing your design on the phone in minutes.
1
Install the desktop package
Download the installer for your OS and run it — just click through. The Photoshop / Illustrator / Sketch / XD plugins and the background helper are all set up in one go.
2
Install the mobile app
On iPhone, install from the App Store (requires iOS 17.0 or later). On Android, open the Pgyer page in your phone's browser and install (allow the install if prompted).
3
Open your design tool & the plugin panel
Restart your design tool, then open the plugin: Photoshop / Illustrator — Window → Extensions (Plugins) → Design Mirror; Sketch — Plugins → Design Mirror; XD — Plugins → Design Mirror.
4
Connect automatically & preview
With the phone and computer on the same network, the app discovers your computer automatically — tap to connect. On complex networks it falls back to the cloud channel, QR code, or a USB cable.
Figma / MasterGo / JSDesign: install from the plugin store
Install the plugin from each tool's official marketplace; the browser version works as well as the desktop app:
- Figma: search the Figma Community for Design Mirror and install it, then run it from Plugins → Design Mirror
- MasterGo: search the plugin marketplace for Design Mirror and install it, then run it from your plugin list
- JSDesign: search the plugin marketplace for Design Mirror and install it, then run it from your plugin list
The plugin reaches your phone through the desktop helper, so the Design Mirror desktop app needs to be installed. It runs in the background from startup — there is no window to keep open.
