The ability to mock data for my list view with 3 different layout files for the items saved me a tremendous amount of tweaking. I was able to get my designer to sign off on the layouts long before I even wrote my adapter.

I found that Mirror really sped everything up for us in Android Studio. Mocking up things with dummy data is a nice touch.

It’s absolutely awesome. I worked an entire afternoon on an animation for my app, without the sandbox I probably need more than a full day.

What’s really outstanding is the direct support from the developers. I always got very quick and helpful feedback on any issues arose.

Mirror saved me a lot of days of routine work in past, and now we are adopting its sandbox features on large projects with Kotlin as prime language.. it definitely boosts some of critical time-consuming operations, like tweaking animations and custom views.

My development productivity has skyrocketed since adding Mirror to my workflow! I can only imagine the hours (and days) I could have saved if I had starting using it sooner! Mirror is something that all Android developers should have in their tool belt!

In my line of work , i consult various companies, mentor and guide them
towards building great Android app and experience.
Mirror is the tool of choice, The ability to show live changes and how the layout can interact with animations,resources and styles is worth every cent.
Even demoing homemade custom views with fast iterations helps the massages from Product/Design level to real world apps.
Can't wait for future versions :)

Mirror is great. Once you use it, you won't give it back. It's pretty stable and perfectly integrated with Android Studio. You should definitely give it a try!

Using Mirror is like laser eye surgery for Android development. Once you use it, you'll never go back. I'm always astounded by how accurately I can make my apps match my mock-ups. It's a tool I can't live without. Get rid of blurry, unfocused, Android app layouts! Look in the Mirror.

Mirror has dramatically improved the quality and speed of designing our layouts, and the support has been second to none.

With Mirror and its ability to catch any changes I made in project files related to my custom views, I can develop those views in less time via an iterative process of writing of code and previewing it almost instantly on an Android device that is really amazing and fun. Mirror is a great helper when developing applications for Android.
