Mobile Design Elements
Templates & Stencils
These are graphic items you can import to various drawing programs (mostly the Adobe suite) to create designs and mockups. The organization may confuse you a bit. Up top are people (like us!) who give lots of different templates, and generic ones. Then I list them by platform, because way too many people are making a single set of Photoshop tools for the iPad, et. al.
Note that this is just those we've found, or found useful. Many more are likely stuck in the various manufacturer and OS developer links under UI Guidelines below.
Also, we do not use raster tools for wireframing, or even OmniGraffle much. Most of these are not reviewed, just listed. If dumb, or incorrectly categorized, please fix it.
4ourth Mobile
A bunch of mobile components (and some other info, like typography) for general mobile design, as well as gestures, and even iPhone specific stuff for the fanbois. Includes the templates used to make the illustrations and diagrams for this wiki. Last updated 21 October 2010:
If you are still on Freehand (and we salute you) the old (September 2009), not-at-all-updated version is still available. It has Little Springs branding, as that's who Steven worked for when he made it.
Yahoo!
Yahoo! Stencil Kit many non-mobile parts, but also useful general and iPhone bits and pieces.
Nokia, Et. Al.
Includes Symbian Foundation, and so forth. Even though some of those are not really 100% Nokia.
Nokia Mobile Design Patterns Not really the same thing, as they are just articles, not actual things to use for drawning. If someone thinks it needs to go somewhere else, move it.
S60 Wireframing Stencils S60 (through 5th edition) elements of all sorts.
