Can I Use Figma on the iPad?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 9:24 pm

Figma is a vector graphic design tool that is primarily used by UX and UI designers. It is available on Mac, Windows, and Linux. There is also a web app and a Figma Mirror app for iOS.

The Figma Mirror app allows you to view your designs on your iOS device in real-time. However, you cannot edit designs in the Figma Mirror app. In order to edit your designs on an iPad, you will need to use the web app.

The web app is available at https://www.figma.com/. To use the web app, you will need to sign in with your Figma account.

PRO TIP: If you are looking to use Figma on your iPad, be warned that there are some serious limitations. The app is not yet optimised for iPadOS and as such, you will likely experience crashes, bugs, and general instability. We recommend only using Figma on your iPad if you are comfortable with these risks.

Once you are signed in, you will be able to view all of your projects and open any project to edit it. When you are editing a project, you will be able to use the same tools that are available in the desktop application.

The web app is responsive, so it will work well on an iPad. However, keep in mind that it is not a native application, so it may not feel as smooth as using the desktop application or the Figma Mirror app.
