What is it?

Responsively App is a desktop browser built with Electron for responsive web development. It displays a site across many device viewports side by side, so developers can check how a layout behaves on different screen sizes without switching between tools.

User interactions such as scrolling, clicking and typing are mirrored across all device previews, and the app includes an element inspector that works across every preview. It ships with 30+ built-in device profiles, supports custom devices, can take screenshots of all previews at once, and supports hot reloading for developers.

The app is available for Mac, Windows and Linux, with a companion browser extension for Chrome, Firefox and Edge that sends links to the app. It also provides a built-in MCP server so AI coding agents such as Claude Code and Cursor can load pages, switch devices, interact with them and capture per-device screenshots.
