XD app lagging on mobile

While viewing any prototype (both cloud loaded and live view) scrolling through pages, changing pages, animations and almost everything else in the prototype is extremely slow (4fps or something).

 

i tried reinstalling the app on my phone but nothing is solving it. I'm working on an iPhone 13 pro.

I'm not creating a test prototype you can easily set up yourself? It's on the latest iOS and XD is also updated to the latest version. It happens with all files, but the larger they are the slower they get.


Hi All,

 

The bug is closed now as the issue is fixed after updating to iOS 16.1.

 

Please let us know if you need further assistance. We would be happy to help.

 

Thanks,

Harshika

This is over a month now and no update from Adobe regarding the issue. The app is still laggy and I am getting frustrated day by day. 

I hope they fix this soon.

 

Thanks.

On iOS 16 I'm also noticing a lag that I didn't notice before.

I have the same experience now, with iOS16. This issue sometimes there was and in the previews OS versions but the scrolling was smoothly generally. It's very frustrating and i can't go further with my design proccess. I hope to be solved in the next update...

Same here. I was wondering if no one but me had the problem. Must be a bug in iOS16. Unbelievably slow and laggy. Unusable - please update/fix asap!

I have exactly the same problem. Before update to iOS 16 everything was stable, and works perfect. Now it is laggy by wire, and also for saved document in cloud.

Any news on this? I'm still getting an incredibly laggy experience on my iPhone 12 mini.

I might be at fault here. I'm on iOS 16 beta, and that might be the reason. I tried the prototype on a colleague's phone (iPhone 12 mini with iOS 15.6) and everything works fine.
