“Now you can use the Figma integration with Zapier to connect Figma to thousands of other tools without writing code. The integration helps teams stay focused on building great products by automating routine tasks, like sending notifications when files are updated, logging design feedback, and creating tickets for follow up tasks.”
A major update to Figma Sites. First of all, custom fonts are finally here! More accessibility features, like HTML tags on layers, accessibility controls, and ARIA role settings. Password protection for the portfolio you still won’t finish. A configurable cookie consent banner, and a new link shortcut with additional types like back and scroll to. Last but not least, Figma Sites is now available for all Starter and Education users.
New enhanced contrast toggle makes the Figma UI easier to read with higher contrast text, buttons, outlines, and selection, aligned with WCAG AA standards.
“The Community tab is back in the file browser, replacing the previous Templates & Tools tab, for easier access to your favorite public Community templates, plugins, and more. Now you can also easily discover internal templates published by your teammates with the new Resources tab in the file browser under your team space.”
“Explore ideas and riff on product flows with templates in Figma Make. Create an accurate representation of an existing product experience, then replicate it as a sandbox to experiment with design directions, new feature ideas, growth campaigns, and more.”
Admins on the Enterprise plan can now require password protection for all published Sites & Makes across your organization.
Updates to AI-powered image editing features across all products — remove background or boost resolution for up to 25 images at once, and choose between Gemini 2.0 Flash and GPT Image 1 to get results that best match your prompt.
“Now you can add all the templates within a template set in just one click — so you can create more assets and launch your campaign even faster. Just the click “Add all” button at the top of the template set to insert them into your file at once.”
“The look and feel of FigJam’s toolbar has a refreshed look and feel, with new iconography, submenus, and a streamlined experience. The tools you use still live in the same place, but their look and feel have been refreshed to match patterns found everywhere else in Figma.”
“We’ve rolled out updates to improve how embeds work in Figma Sites. Embeds let you bring interactive content directly into your webpage — from forms to music to social media — using a simple URL.”
A few updates to Figma Make to make editing, previewing, and iterating even smoother: preview your Make across screen sizes using a new device dropdown menu and custom dimension editor; Make now saves named versions and tracks every code edit, so you can quickly review changes and restore to an earlier state at any time.
“We’re introducing a series of new features that remove barriers for keyboard-only designers across most Figma products. Users can now pan the canvas, insert objects, and make precise selections quickly and easily. And, with improved screen reader support, these actions are read aloud as users work, making it easier to stay oriented.”
“If a variable or style name gets cut off in the picker, you can now hover over it to see the full name.”
The new Variables modal got search and filter capabilities and now opens edge-to-edge for better visibility.
Miggi and special guests walk through updates across Figma Make, Sites, Buzz, FigJam, Slides, Dev Mode, Draw, and Design. Highlights include style context and Supabase integration in Make, vector simplifying and offset in Draw, grid updates, Dev Mode’s interactive inspection, and Sites’ background video fill.
“Organization admins at companies using Governance+ for Figma Enterprise can now prevent users with view-only access from copying, saving, or exporting files. These controls can be applied to guest viewers or to all viewers, and can be configured at the organization or workspace level to align with your data-sharing policies.”
Grid improvements, offering more precision and control: delete rows and columns, set min and max, and adjust multiple grids with a faster grid picker. The Grid Playground community file was also updated with new features.
Now you can bring an existing design library to Figma Make, so the model can extract color palette and usage guidelines, typography and custom fonts, as well as core styling elements. You can also manually define rules for the model to follow via a guideline.md file. Watch the above video from Make PM Holly Li, or read the help article.
You can now adjust the width of your stroke at any given point along a path with the new variable width stroke vector editing tool. Variable width stroke also makes it possible for users to draw with pressure sensitivity on tablets. Figma will set the stroke width to reflect the amount of pressure applied at each point when drawing with a stylus, which makes freehand drawing in Figma more realistic. (Still no iPad app though.)
“New in Dev Mode MCP Server: Annotations are included as design context. Generated code now benefits from both the structure of your design and your design intent.”
