## Key features

- **All devices at once:** Many device previews show side by side, so there is no need to resize the dev tools window.
- **Mirrored interactions:** A click, scroll or navigation in one preview is repeated in all the others in real time.
- **Preview Suites:** Favorite device combinations are saved as Preview Suites and switched between while testing.
- **Device profiles:** A large collection of device profiles is built in, and custom devices can be added.
- **Unified Inspector and screenshots:** One inspector covers every device, and full-page screenshots of all devices are taken in one click.
- **Ordinary browser features:** Cookie, local storage and session storage management, bookmarks and the usual dev tools are included.

## Good for

- Front-end developers checking breakpoints across devices
- Designers reviewing a page at several screen sizes
- Developers who want a free alternative to paid viewport tools

## Worth knowing

- It is a developer tool, not a general-purpose daily browser.
- It is built on Electron, so it previews sites with Chromium rather than Safari or Firefox engines.
- It runs on Mac, Windows and Linux only, with no mobile version.
- A beta channel is offered next to the stable release.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 3.0 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. Responsively App is a free open source browser that shows your site on many device sizes at once and mirrors your clicks across them. It uses Chromium, so it will not show you Safari or Firefox behaviour. It is for developers, not for everyday browsing.

- **Value for money: A.** Free and open source, with no paid plans listed.
- **Free plan and trial: A.** The whole app is free, with no paid plans listed on its site or GitHub page.
- **Features: C.** Many device views, mirrored interactions, device profiles and screenshots. It does that job fully, but it is a smaller job than a full developer toolset.
- **Ease of use: B.** No store rating on record. Install it, enter a URL and see the devices.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Desktop only: macOS, Windows and Linux. No mobile app and no integrations listed.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Responsively App is free, so making your own would save you nothing. And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces.

- You could not: A web browser.
- You could not: Capture tools hooked into the operating system.
- You could not: Apps for macOS, Windows and Linux that stay in step with each other.
