User Reviews for Figurative

I like it but I want more multi touch controls

I really long to be able to use my pencil to move an object and hold a finger on the screen to lock the object to a path as if I were holding the shift key, or have two fingers down to quickly duplicate an item. This tool is good enough but some more gesture controls would really make it a breeze to work with.

Fat thumbs delete elements

I love this. My only suggestion is to move the “Touch Shortcuts” , Show / Hide UI option to the bottom of the list. It’s likely more used than Delete, and thus less likely for someone to accidentally delete an element. Thanks!Doh.. after exploring more I found the hidden gem of changing shortcuts. So, lets add a new shortcut in the default list - one called, Edit Shortcuts :)

Kind of amazing!

Even though Figma is certainly not optimized for iPad use AT ALL, this app makes it perfectly usable in a pinch. The latest update adds some critical niceties for touch and pencil support. I’d love to see more quick access buttons to trigger modifier keys and especially showing/hiding the UI. But otherwise this app makes it viable for me to leave my laptop at home when I go out of town for a weekend or day trip.

App is a Beast if tackled these glitches

This is a really nice app, I was waiting for something like this for years, huge thumbs up for what you have accomplished so far, that being said, I’ve found a few nuances that needs some improvements: 1. Upon opening large documents, the browser tab infinitely self-reload regardless of user input.2. App crashes when editing Mixed-Font texts3. Interface can be very laggy especially when hovering top level menusAgain, you got great potential, with a few bug fixes and tweaks you’ll be among the top players.Future thoughts: shortcuts for menu items, see if you can implement this.

Promising But Not Quite There Yet

I like the basic premise of the app - to make Figma usable on an iPad; however, there are still a lot of rough edges to this app.If you look at all of your projects and want to open one of them, you have to triple-tap to open it. Not exactly intuitive.If you want to switch from the default view to the comments view, when you tap on the comments icon, it reloads the entire project (if you’re lucky). This can take a while, and sometimes it doesn’t complete properly so you end up with a blank screen.If the design includes other fonts that you don’t have on your iPad, loading them is a rather circuitous process. You can’t simply say, load every font that you can’t find in this project. You have to exit the app, and find a separate font loader, and then load each font one-by-one (including the bold, plain, and related typefaces). Admittedly, this is more of an Apple problem rather than an app problem, but it’s still a problem.

It’s alright

Downloaded this for a college class and it could use some fixes. The pen tool is not functioning right when using an Apple Pencil to draw. The pen tool would only do a single line and not any shapes. The app still crashes when placing images. It seems that the app could use a lot of maintenance due to being relatively new (version 1.2.1 as of this review) and it not optimized for iPad use, especially with the included use of the Apple Pencil. If the developer sees this, I’d recommend some beta testers to help identify any problems. The website on a mobile browser on iPad barely has any Apple Pencil support (pencil stories don’t really register). I’m would definitely like to have a big overhaul to fix these kind of issues, the app should work just like the desktop website but with functioning support for the Apple Pencil, Bluetooth keyboard, and mouse.

The hero we didn't deserve

Ever since I got my M1 iPad, it's been killing me that there isn't better app support from those companies that could really take advantage of the extra power (and RAM). This app works so well! Definitely loads better than trying to use Figma in Safari on my iPad. Can't believe this is free! Thank you!

Great in a pinch

By far the best app for iPad -> Figma workflows. However, it’s still an iPad and it comes with heavy limitations. Working in enterprise anything more than a couple dozen screens slow the app to a crawl. Trying to open a huge design system file makes the app unusable (this is due more to RAM limitations than necessarily the app itself, but still a major negative).Trying to place a photo crashes the app quite often, which is my primary aspect I would be using this for (transferring low fi sketches seamlessly between my adobe comp/sketch explorations to figma). That being said it does it’s job and does it fairly well and much more effectively than any other iPad app for this kind of market. If figma ever extends on the pen support for drawing (default size of pen brush and color, lines default to a group) you could have a great impromptu sketch board to draw and discuss design ideas.

Amazing. Like, better than Figma on Mac.

I honestly only downloaded this app to use to make some quick edits to some designs when I was away from my Mac (I was really frustrated with the Figma site on Safari), but I never really expected how good this would be. It’s pretty much identical to the Figma Mac desktop app, but it works with Apple Pencil. Magic Keyboard support is incredible (trackpad gestures and keyboard shortcuts work identically to the Mac app), and I haven’t had any issues with plugins at all. It’s the same as on Mac, but with Apple Pencil. I cannot stress how great this is. The only minor inconvenience I’ve really had is with fonts not syncing properly, but that’s mainly just an issue on my end where I haven’t installed the Creative Cloud fonts I used on other devices.

Buggier than the official website

I don’t know why anyone would download this app. It is super buggy. The Figma website is much better (if you use it with a Magic Keyboard for iPad). The only drawback with the website is you’ll need to use Chrome if you want to pinch to zoom with your trackpad.Bugs I’ve found:- Tap menu items (delete, duplicate, copy/paste, etc.) works only about 50% of the time for me- Double-tap to undo works only about 66% of the time for me- App crashes 50% of the time when inserting an image from device Photo Library- Window gets super zoomed in (and toolbars/menus disappear) 50% of the time after switching apps and switching back, and cannot zoom back out- A blue or gray text selection highlight appears out of nowhere almost 100% of the time, and blocks part of the workspace, and you cannot make it disappear (but this bug also happens when using an iPad on the official website)I should also mention that I am using the newest iPad Air, and not a Pro.
