Frequent crashes and touch shortcuts don’t work

While it’s good to be able to actually edit Figma files, the touch shortcuts have never worked, which severely limits the utility of this app. It also crashes a lot.

Great app

The rounded borders that are standard to the UI of Vision Pro/visionOS creates an issue for FIGOUI at those edges. I wonder if doing something similar to the new iPhone mirroring on the Mac basically putting the sigma UI within a visionOS surface the UI can have a small rounding whilst having a type of glass around the edges however, this is something I haven’t seen elsewhere on the App Store, so this may look funky it could help with the edges.
I would also like to place multiple windows side-by-side that would be nice, but then I would also then assume people would want to drag things from one to the other once that functionality is made available and therefore creating more work for Matias.

Best design tool on iPad for Figma users

I don’t know but some key bugs got fixed. Still a bit buggy but I can see so much potential. Thank you for creating it.

EXACTLY What I was looking for!

I’m a graphic designer on the journey to making my iPad my primary device for all my graphic design work. The only thing holding me back from selling my MacBook was how buggy Figma was on the browser as Figma is my primary UX/UI app for everything. This just solves all the issues I’ve had.

Question tho: Are plugins supported on this?

Throwing errors and unusable

I have just started using and it’s useless off the bat, I can’t load files or create, in fact nothing!

Please fix.
