New iPad Mockup

Here’s a new iPad mockup that works well for an e-learning screen, a dashboard and similar projects.

Useful for UI designers as much as for publishers. Tip: screenshots with a white background can blend into the bezel; a thin shadow or darker UI reads better.

Stakeholders who don’t read wireframes still understand a screen on a device straight away. Pair it with a second device from the same angle to show a responsive layout.

The file is made by a designer on Dribbble. The download button takes you to their page, where you get the original file and the licence details.

New iPad Mockup: editable parts

The PSD is layered, so you can change:

• Screen design, placed through the smart object
• Shadow under the device
• Screen glare and reflection layers

Editing the New iPad Mockup, step by step

1. Pick one strong screen. It reads better than a crowded one.
2. Open the file in Photoshop and double-click the smart object thumbnail in the Layers panel.
3. Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
4. Lower the glare layer if it hides small text.
5. Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.

Another tip: make your screen design at the exact pixel size of the smart object, otherwise text on the screen turns blurry.

Where the New iPad Mockup works best

• Show a dashboard to a client before it goes to print or production.
• Use it as the cover image for a digital magazine page in your portfolio.
• Share an e-learning screen on Instagram, Behance or Dribbble with a real-looking preview.

Good to know

• Made by a designer on Dribbble. The download size and format are listed on their page.
• Some free mockups ask for credit when you post them. A short line in your caption is enough.
• The preview shows the angle, background and lighting you’ll get.
