Hi! i've been playing around with the trial version of Hype 3 for the last couple of days and love it. Then I found out about this bundle. My question is: If I buy Hype 3 as part of this bundle, will I still qualify to buy the upgrade to the Pro features though the in-app purchase? Or will I have to stay on the standard version? Please let me know. I'm really looking forward to upgrade! :) Thanks in advance.

Just upgraded to 2.5 and this app goes from strength to strength. There are few things you can't do with this now as it exports to video as well - I'll be doing all my demo videos in here now as well! Currently using it for my own app's website and it's solid, fast and reliable.

Here we go again: As soon as I start Hype, it attempts to phone home to GOOGLE ANALYTICS ! ! ! NOT acceptable. NOT appreciated. ASK MY PERMISSION FIRST DAMMIT. NO, I do NOT give you permission surveil me. BLOCKED by Little Snitch. Hype that, idiots. Gotta HATE the FORCED user surveillance that stupid developers foist onto their users just to make an extra buck at their expense. Consider this comment my retribution. USERS BEWARE.

Pricing is going to have to change before I even consider buying it and by “change” is what I might pay for it but I sure won’t shell out 30 bucks for it.

If you live in Mexico, it is cheaper to buy it from the App store from the Hype store. The exchange rate used must be quite different. If you are outside of the USA, check both options before ordering. I'm not a big fan of the App store, but nor do I wish to pay more than I have to.

I believe Hype must be using Apple's dangerous versioning system now or something. I built a website last night and exported it. Worked great. Went to bed and thought of some more ideas. Woke up in the morning, and the Hype file I created was gone. I looked everywhere (and I am very well organized). The "Open Recent" menu showed only one file that was a long string of nonsense. When I opened it, it was a very, very early version, before any of the real hard work! And I do save my files as I work... obsessively. Every time I do even the smallest thing I like, I save the file. So… where is my file? Absolutely, 100% gone along with 8 hours of work. I cannot trust this app any longer.

@ Tumult: Is there still no EXPORT AS VIDEO option? If I remember correctly, last year (2012) Tumult wrote, that many users had asked for an export as video option and so I had hoped, that this feature would be available meanwhile, but I can't find it... :( What are your thoughts/ plans about this? TIA :) @ all: Hype is a really versatile app ! Even if you mainly use Rapidweaver, Hype can bring some nice extras to your work!

I've used Hype to replace iWeb. There were things I loved about iWeb, but Hype is easy to use and created effects that I couldn't even think about doing in iWeb. I tried other options, but frankly in spite of the fact I don't have separate URLs for each "page", my sites look better than they did with iWeb. Hype is easy and so far Hype support has been incredibly good and responsive.

I am writing this as I download v1.5 and though this might seem premature I am giving it a five star review as version 1.0.5 already earns five stars as far as I'm concerned. I have used RapidWeaver for years and was loathe to spend time on learning yet another app (RapidWeaver just wasn't cutting it anymore) yet Hype has got my new site up and running quickly and reliably and I am already getting favourable customer feedback on it.

After incorporating a few simple keynote animations into iBook Author and seeing how much space they use I was looking for alternatives. I played with both Hype and Purple this weekend. Purple is free this weekend on the app store, so getting it was a no brainer. However I'm leaning towards Hype - it is easier to use and has more features. Purple seems less rounded and thought out. That being said it is still fairly basic and needs more effects and transitions. While Hype is able to output for iBook Author the process needs to be made much easier - Hype has a chance to position itself as the tool of choice, and others (like Shade) have already added "export to iBook Author". So it's "make or break" time for Hype - if Hype can get souped up and keep the price it has the potential to corner the market for iBook Author animations before the big boys jump in.

This is a very nice, mac-like, easy to use, fun to work with little app. The results are very nice, and I've seen some websites created entirely with Hype. Would be cool if the developer could add some web-uploade features for uploading single pages, then this would be the best replacement for iWeb ever. Actually, iWeb should have been like this… And yes: Hype works great with the new iBooks Author app! Just follow these steps: http://tumultco.com/blog/2012/01/20/easy-html5-animations-in-ibooks-using-tumult-hype-and-ibooks-author/

I downloaded the Trial, and I think it's pretty easy to use BUT... I am very disappointed with the utter lack of tech support. I have posted on their forum and sent an email with a question, and NOTHING. Does anyone here know how to slow down transition times between scenes in Hype? I have created 4 scenes and they work fine except that they transition too quickly. I have found nothing in their simplistic online tutorials or on their forums that addresses this basic problem. If anyone here knows how, please speak! Thanks.
