Dashboard
The Proto.io Dashboard is the first screen you see when you log in to your Proto.io account. It provides overall access to your projects, your users, as well as your custom devices, subscription management, and branding options.
The Dashboard is organized into the following areas.
Main Menu
From this menu, you can navigate through your Proto.io projects, your users, and your custom devices. Under each one, you are given options to create new or manage existing ones.
- Projects are your prototypes. (see Creating and Managing projects)
- Users are the people for whom you create accounts for collaborating, either as designers, admins, or reviewers (see Setting up users).
- Custom Devices are devices you define for use in your projects (see Creating a custom device for my project). Proto.io already has a default list of the most popular devices to choose from.
Integrations
In this section, you can find the various integrations available for Proto.io users:
- Design plugin for Adobe XD
- Design plugin for Photoshop
- Design plugin for Sketch
- Plugin for Jira
- Macro for Confluence
- Power-up for Trello
Account Management
This section is accessed by clicking on your name at the top right corner to open up a menu of options. All users regardless of their role (owner, designer, reviewer) can manage their profile (e.g. personal details, password, photo, etc). You can also switch between accounts in case you have more than one.
Account owners can also manage their account settings and access billing information.
Furthermore, there are options to edit company branding details, such as a logo or custom URL. Subscription plans and other billing-related information can be accessed here. Account owners can also cancel their subscription, close (delete) or park their account, as well as see previous payments made (see Billing Settings).
