How to use inspiration sites well
Use real product screens for UI decisions
Libraries of screenshots from shipping apps show how common flows, like onboarding, checkout and settings, are actually solved.
Use galleries for visual direction
Award sites and portfolio communities are better for style than for usability. Showcase work often isn't a shipped product.
Save references as you go
Inspiration only helps if you can find it again. Collect references into boards by project or by pattern.
Look beyond design websites
Architecture, print and packaging often give more original direction than another interface gallery.
Keep the ones you use in one place
QuickPick puts every tool you actually open one click away, with boards for inspiration and notes beside the work. Free to start.
