XD app lagging on mobile

Community Beginner ,
Nov 05, 2021 Nov 05, 2021

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.

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.

Is there any workaround if this is the case?

 

I think I have the same issue with you, Everything is working smoothly before I update to iOS 16.

I don't think support was very honest. It's not a bug. Seeing as how I posted it when iOS 15 came out and now it's happening with iOS16 it's probably because they need to update the app to work on the latest iOS. I cant wait for figma to become part of Adobe cause XD feels more amaturistic by the day.

Hi, I just wanted to let everyone know that as of IOS 16.1 Beta 4, this issue no longer exists. It feels smooth and back to normal. So, It could have been some error on Apple's part.

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!

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.

Hi All,

We are sorry for the delay in response to this issue. A few more details would be super helpful for us to investigate the issue.

  • Is it possible for you to share a prototype link with us so that we can investigate the issue?
  • Please also share the version of XD and the operating system details as well.
  • Does that happen with all files or with large files?

 

We will try our best to help.

Thanks,

Harshika

You have asked to share a link for the prototype and I thought this will go through email instead of posting your confidential work in public, seriously?!!!!

Hi there

As sugested I shared a project and my tech specs via confidential-Link. Hope it helps.

 

But there's one more thing …

 

Even without an open XD-project on the desktop, you could see a reloading-blink on the mobile XD-screen once the iPhone is connected with an USB-to-lighning-cable. Like it tries to re-connect every half a second … guess thea's where the problem starts.

You could have shared any XD file with just two artboards because the app lags even though there are just 2 artboards to process. 

 

@HARSHIKA_VERMA Please look into this immediately.

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.
