Figma is a cloud-based design and prototyping tool used for UI/UX design, graphic design, and collaborative interface development.
The Figma desktop app gives you access to the same features and functionality as using Figma in a browser. You can also develop plugins and widgets for your organization or the Figma Community, and access and use fonts installed on your device without needing the font installer.
Download the Figma app for a more native Figma experience.
Is Figma free to use?
Yes, Figma offers a free Starter plan with unlimited personal files and up to 3 shared files with 2 editors. Figma's free plan is a robust option for personal projects, learning, and light collaboration. For larger teams or advanced features, paid subscriptions are required.
Can I use Figma offline?
The desktop app offers native OS menus, access to local fonts, dedicated application tabs, and slightly better screen space and task switching compared to browser tabs. Because it runs in its own window, it feels more contained and less prone to mixing with your regular browsing workflow.
Can developers edit and export designs in Figma?
Yes, Developers can view design specs, copy CSS, download assets, and use Dev Mode for enhanced handoff features available in paid plans.
Is Figma good for teams?
Yes, Figma shines in team settings with real-time collaboration, shared libraries, version history, and team/project organization. These features are more powerful on the Professional or Organization plans.
