What a fantastic idea and easy to use reference. I love anything to do with design and it's all captured so well on this site.
Really cool idea! As a designer, I constantly want to run benchmarks and it takes ages to create accounts, get some data in etc. This is going to be super useful.
Hi! Nice idea and product! I wish you a good luck! As a feedback: pls add some call-to-action button in the block with the websites, because scrolling is too long and you start be nervous about "Where are you", trying to scroll to the end of this block but it's constantly scrolls more and more
Awesome concept, great value, convenient navigation and search. It's nice that part of the functionality is available without registration. I created an account, but feel really grateful that I could try so much things before that.
When I started using the app, there was just one major thing that I still don't understand. When I'm filtering references, I get the list of separate screens, but they're not grouped in whole user experiences. For example, I opened the onboarding tour in "Drops" product, clicked the right arrow button, and saw the screen of "AirBnB". I clicked the right button one more time, and it was "Drops" again, but I wasn't sure if these two screens go one after another, or not. When I kept swiping right, I saw more "Drops" screens mixed with even more different product references. Changing the sorting settings didn't help. Am I missing something, or it's made on purpose?
And one more question. When a product, which reference is added in Refero, changes the design, how does it get reflected in your library? Does it get added as a second reference, or the existing one gets replaced? And how often such updates happen?
Thank you!

Thank you so much for exploring Refero and providing such valuable feedback. The issue you highlighted regarding navigation between screens in our search results is indeed valid. We're in the process of developing a feature that will group screens by site or application. We believe this will significantly improve the search experience.
As for updates in product design within our library, we are actively tracking these changes and replace with new designs. We plan to eventually introduce a 'design history' feature, where users will be able to view both current and previous designs.
Feedback like yours is essential in refining our platform. Please always feel free to share your thoughts or questions.

This looks amazing! Congrats with a launch! I clearly remember how many times I was thinking "hm, what UI-pattern for this feature does Google/Figma/Miro use". This could save a lot of time for that kind of research 🔥
