Compatibility
What version of iPadOS is required?
iPadOS 17 is required.
Which iPads are supported?
PropUI requires the A12 Bionic chip or later. These iPads are supported:
- iPad Pro 11-inch (all models)
- iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation or later)
- iPad Air (3rd generation or later)
- iPad mini (5th generation or later)
- iPad (8th generation or later)
Does it work on iPhone?
No, currently it is iPad only.
Is there a version for Android tablets?
Sorry, no. Only iPad is supported.
Purchasing
Is an in-app purchase or subscription required for full functionality?
Nope! All the currently available functionality is included when you purchase the app. There are no in-app purchases or subscriptions, and currently no plans to change that. If, in the future, additional features are only available via in-app purchase, that will apply only to the new features. All the features in the app you purchase will always be available.
Usage
Does the app generate any sounds?
No. The interface sounds you hear on the videos were added in post. That seems to be easier than generating and recording sounds on set. If there is audio included in videos you import, that sound can be played (or muted) with the video.
How many modules can I have on the screen in each document?
You can have up to two sections, each with six modules, arranged in columns or rows. Some modules can appear smaller than others. Adding too many of some modules may disrupt the layout or make some modules too small.
How do I export my work to use in my production?
There is no "export" functionality. Each custom layout you create can be saved as a document, and these can be opened on any iPad running Prop UI. The expectation is that an iPad running Prop UI will be used during filming, appearing on camera to display your interactive interface during production.
Other
I used Prop UI in a movie I made. Do you want to see it?
Absolutely! You can
email us, or leave a comment in our
YouTube channel. It is possible that we will feature our favorites in a YouTube playlist.
I have an idea for a module or other feature request. Can you include my idea?
We are very interested in hearing how people are using the app and what modules and features would make it more useful. You can
email us your ideas to us, and it is possible that they might be included in a future update. Please note that we cannot provide compensation for this; you may be providing an idea has already been requested by other peoople, or it might already be in our plans for future releases.
