Which Design Tools Are Needed to Use PSDDD.co Templates?

Updated

PSDDD.co templates are built for two design applications: Adobe Photoshop (PSD files) and Sketch (Sketch app files). If you have either of those installed, you can open and edit the matching templates directly. If you use a different design tool, such as Figma, Adobe XD, or Affinity Designer, the site does not list templates in those formats, so you would need to convert or import the files yourself.

The two supported tools

PSDDD.co describes itself as a collection of free Photoshop PSD and Sketch App resources for UI designers. Its template library is organized around those two file types, and no other design software is mentioned on the site.

Tool File format What you get
Adobe Photoshop PSD Mobile app templates, UI kits, and other layered design files
Sketch Sketch Web templates, UI kits, wireframing and prototyping templates

Photoshop (PSD files)

Templates labeled for Photoshop come as PSD files. You need a working installation of Adobe Photoshop to open them with full layer, style, and artboard support. Examples on the site include the Chats Mobile App Template for Photoshop, which is listed under the Mobile UI Kits category.

Sketch (Sketch app files)

Templates labeled for Sketch come as Sketch files and require the Sketch app, which runs on macOS. Examples include:

  • Sketchsheets – free print templates for UX designers
  • Matter eCommerce Web Template for Sketch
  • Atomic Sketch – a free UI kit based on atomic design
  • A free Sketch wireframing and prototyping template

How the templates are organized

The site groups templates by file format and category, so you can filter to the tool you actually use before downloading. The visible categories include Mobile UI Kits, alongside web templates, UI kits, and wireframing/prototyping resources. Checking the format label before downloading is the simplest way to avoid pulling a file your software cannot open.

What to do if you use a different tool

The site does not publish Figma, Adobe XD, or Affinity files, so there is no native path for those applications. Your options are:

  1. Convert the file. PSD files can sometimes be imported into Figma or opened in Affinity Designer, but layer effects, smart objects, and text styles may shift during conversion.
  2. Rebuild from the Sketch or PSD source. Use the template as a visual reference and recreate the layout in your own tool.
  3. Install the matching app. If you plan to use many templates, having Photoshop or Sketch available removes the conversion step entirely.

Quick check before you download

  • Confirm the template is labeled Photoshop or Sketch.
  • Match that label to the software you have installed.
  • Expect conversion friction if you plan to open the file in anything else.

If you already use Photoshop or Sketch, PSDDD.co templates will open without extra tooling. If you do not, factor in a conversion or rebuild step before committing to a template.
