Once you’ve signed in, you’ll see all documents and projects in your Workspace. If you have multiple Workspaces associated with your Sketch account, tap on the Workspace icon in the top-right corner to switch between them.

To open a document, tap on its thumbnail. Larger documents may take a moment to open while they download. To cancel opening a document, tap the thumbnail again.

In the Workspace view, you’ll see some or all of the following rows of document thumbnails:

  • From My Mac if you’re currently editing a document from the same Workspace on your Mac
  • All Documents
  • Shared with Me if anyone has shared a document directly with you
  • My Drafts if you have saved any drafts

You can scroll through these thumbnails horizontally, or click See All to view the documents as a grid.

Scroll below the the horizontal document rows to see any projects you’ve created in your Workspace. Tap on a project’s name to view all documents and any collections it contains.

If a project you’re viewing has any collections, tap on them to view the documents it contains. Tap Back to return to the project view (if you’re browsing a collection) or the Workspace view (if you’re browsing a project).

Scroll slightly upward to find the search bar at the top of the screen, to help you find documents in a project or collection. Search results are filtered based on the view you’ve selected in the sidebar. For example, if you’re viewing a specific project, searching here will only give you results from that project.

If you lose your internet connection, you’ll see a row of documents you’ve previously downloaded — you can still open and browse these offline.
