An in-app design review tool for iOS that inspects measurements, attributes, and animations via a hidden plugin drawer.
Hyperion is an in-app design review tool for iOS that provides a hidden plugin drawer for inspecting UI measurements, view attributes, and animations. It solves the problem of verifying design implementation accuracy directly within the running app without needing external tools. The tool integrates discreetly and is intended for debug builds only.
iOS developers and designers who need to verify UI implementation against design specifications, debug layout issues, or inspect animations in real-time.
Developers choose Hyperion because it offers zero-code integration, a non-intrusive hidden drawer, and powerful built-in plugins for live UI inspection—making it faster and more accurate than manual measurement or external debugging tools.

Designed as a drag-and-drop framework requiring no additional code, making it quick to add via CocoaPods or Carthage with debug-only configurations.
View Inspector plugin allows real-time examination of view properties and zooming for detailed checks, directly within the running app.
Accessible via gestures like shake, the drawer stays out of sight during normal use, avoiding interference with the app's UI.
Supports first-party plugins for measurements and slow animations, with documentation for third-party development, though the ecosystem is still growing.
Only gesture triggers are configurable via plist; theming and plugin ordering are planned but not yet implemented, restricting flexibility.
Carthage and manual installations require detailed build script adjustments and framework management, which can be error-prone and time-consuming.
Third-party plugin creation guide is a work in progress, limiting community contributions and available extensions compared to more established tools.
