What’s New
Version 2025.1.2
In this update, we’ve changed how we convert Artboards to Frames. If an Artboard didn’t have “Adjust content on resize” enabled, we’ll now set a fixed height and width for its contents, and pin them to the top-left corner. This preserves the previous behavior where resizing the Frame won’t proportionally affect the size or position of its contents.
This change does not affect documents that you have already opened in a previous Athens update. It only applies to older documents you open in v2025.1.2 or later.
Ratings and Reviews
Can’t even open a sketch for free to view only?
A friend of mine asked me to see what I thought of a design draft, but they sent it to me in a strange file format. They said I needed to download “Sketch” and I’d be able to see what it was about. As soon as I downloaded it and attempted to open the file, I was prompted to either log in, restore purchase, or sign up for a 30-day trial. I mean, with a file format that Apple even has downloads for on their developer webpage (mind you, an application that they DIDN’T develop), you should be able to see at least what files look like! Have you ever had to pay to see what a PDF looked like? Exactly.
Developer Response ,
Hello there! Thanks a lot for your honest feedback. I will pass your words on internally to see if we can somehow improve this, but I’m afraid that this falls more on the part of how the operating system works. Additionally, when sharing documents, we always encourage our users to upload their designs to their Workspaces so they can share them directly with anyone with access to an Internet browser. (this makes them accessible in macOS, Windows, or any other OS) Cheers! 🙏
Only getting worse
Sketch used to be incredible and I recommended it to everyone. This app has gotten much worse over the last few years and can no longer compete with the other obvious choices. I design stickers every few months and every time I open the app it asks me to login again. So frustrating. Also, you can no longer just pay for the software, everything is a monthly fee. The quality has gone way down. If you are going to pay monthly for something, try Figma.
Developer Response ,
Hello there! I’m sorry to see you are feeling like this. The authentication token we use to keep you signed has an expiration date (one month, give it or take), so if you don’t use Sketch often, it may be that you have to refresh it every time you want to use it. If this is not the case, you can email us at productsupport@sketch.com, and we will gladly investigate your situation. On the other hand, you can still definitely pay for the License instead of subscribing (more details on our pricing page), so let us know if you need help with it. Cheers! 🙏
It's no Figma
Sketch truly can not hold a candle to Figma. This program is not smart - it's not good at predicting what I am trying to do in ways that would be obvious to other design programs. It's not good at conveying why certain things are happening e.g. why something is being scaled vs being cropped. Its component system and prototyping capabilities are primitive. The only reason I use this is because my client requires it. Otherwise everyone else should stick with Figma.
Developer Response ,
Hello there! First, thanks for leaving your honest review. We really take feedback seriously, and we are constantly working to improve our product. I will pass internally your comments, but rest assured some new improvements are on the way! Additionally, if you are experiencing any issues, don’t hesitate to email us at productsupport@sketch.com, and we will gladly assist you. Cheers! 🙏
