I can still add the unit FMX.MobilePreview, but the used style on windows is selected randomly and cannot changed anymore, as describted in the XE5 help page.

I am using the trial version of AppMethod 1.17

    Thx, but it shows only the same view as in the designer. I just want to test my app with a mobile design on windows. Since it's just a style, why is it not possible to use it on windows?

    The mobile preview was dropped when the multi device designer was introduced. It can be surfaced using the unit FMX.MobilePreview in the project file. It picks an Android-like style, afaik. If it picks a different one, than there is something wrong.
    This is an absolutely great feature, trying to resurface and make it easier to use going forward

    Randy Sill No, I don't think so. There is a specific "preview style, android like". We don't allow picking an iOS style on Windows... but you can certainly use a custom style of your choice.
