Timers – Automatically move between screens

Posted 8 years ago by Murat Mutlu

Timers is a great new feature that allows you to automatically move to another screen in your prototype without any user interaction.

It's perfect for creating loading screens and onboarding flows. You can even use it to create an automated slideshow of your screens.

Transitions can also be combined with timers, check out this example from Cai Cardenas which uses the fade transition between screens.

Timer for prototyping

You can find the new Timer feature in the editor navigation menu. Here's how to get started:

  1. Edit any image in your project
  2. In the navigation select timer and add the amount of time you want to elapse before moving to the next screen
  3. Exit and hit play to see it in action
