As someone who designs in Figma, you’re probably aware of its many benefits. One of the things that makes Figma so great is that it’s easy to test your prototypes on your phone. In this article, we’ll show you how to do just that.
Before we get started, it’s important to note that there are two different types of prototypes in Figma:
- Interactive prototypes: These are prototypes that allow you to interact with them, like click on buttons or scroll through pages. You can test these prototypes on your phone by opening the prototype in the Figma app and then interacting with it on your phone.
- Non-interactive prototypes: These are prototypes that don’t allow you to interact with them.
You can test these prototypes by opening them in a browser on your phone and then viewing them.
Now that you know the difference between the two types of prototypes, let’s take a look at how to test each one on your phone.
How to Test an Interactive Prototype on Your Phone
Testing an interactive prototype on your phone is easy. Simply open the prototype in the Figma app and then interact with it on your phone.
You can use your finger to click on buttons and scroll through pages. To exit the prototype, simply press the back button on your phone.
How to Test a Non-Interactive Prototype on Your Phone
Testing a non-interactive prototype is also easy. Simply open the prototype in a browser on your phone and then view it.
You can’t interact with the prototype, but you can view it as if it were a live website or app.
Conclusion
Testing your Figma prototypes on your phone is easy, whether they’re interactive or not. Simply open the prototype in the appropriate app or browser and then view or interact with it as needed. When you’re finished, just press the back button on your phone to exit.
