Custom Device
Custom Devices are accessible from the Side menu of the Dashboard. They are the devices you specifically define (name and size mainly) for using in your projects. Proto.io already has a default list of the most popular devices to choose from. When creating a new project you have to choose the device you will be designing for. Once you do, the canvas in the Proto.io Editor takes the appropriate dimensions.
