I have a few applications that I’d like to write for the iPhone, and I needed a way to prototype the UI so I put a simple template together.

All the parts are taken from screenshots I found online so none of the parts look too great, but I think it’s good enough to get a rough idea of how a web application UI will look on the iPhone (non-landscape mode).

I did the template in Fireworks, but Fireworks’ file format is a layered PNG so if your favorite editor supports layered PNGs it theoretically should work (I would imagine photoshop can import the file).

Here is a screenshot of the template in use:

It’s not pixel perfect, and the quality isn’t that fantastic, but it’s a lot better than just flying dark. You can download the template here.
