If you’re a fan of Figma, you know that it’s a great tool for creating prototypes. But what if you want to view those prototypes on your iPad?

Luckily, there’s an easy way to do just that. With the help of the Figma Mirror app, you can view your Figma prototypes on your iPad without any hassle.

Here’s how to get started:

  1. First, make sure that you have the latest version of the Figma desktop app installed on your computer. You can download it from the Figma website.
  2. Next, open the Figma Mirror app on your iPad and sign in with your Figma account.
  3. Once you’re signed in, you’ll see a list of all the projects that you have access to. Select the project that you want to view on your iPad.
  4. Now, open the project in the Figma desktop app and click on the “Share” button in the top-right corner.
  5. In the “Share” menu, select “Get shareable link” and then choose “Can view file. “
  6. Copy the link that is generated and paste it into the Figma Mirror app on your iPad.
  7. You should now see your prototype appear on your iPad. You can interact with it just like you would on your computer.

That’s all there is to it! With the Figma Mirror app, you can easily view your Figma prototypes on your iPad. Give it a try and see how it works for you.

PRO TIP: If you are planning on using Figma to create prototypes for your iPad, be aware that there are some potential risks involved. First and foremost, Figma is a web-based application, which means that it is not designed specifically for mobile devices. As such, there is a chance that your prototypes may not look as polished or professional as they would if you used a dedicated mobile prototyping tool. Additionally, because Figma is a web-based application, it is subject to the same security risks as any other website. Be sure to only access Figma through a secure, trusted network connection.
