It is one of the best user experiences to design from a mobile screen. I highly recommend Play! 🤩
Dan LaCivita
@josealvarezn Thanks, Jose! Your continued support and feedback is always appreciated :)
Alex Greene
@josealvarezn Thanks José, that means a lot! Designing in the context of your iPhone screen is incredibly fast; Have you seen our iPad app as well?
José Alvarez
@alexg473 Yeah, I plan to get an iPad to Play + with Figma!

Good work!

@dalem_nazim_abdelaziz Thank you so much!

One of the best and most ambitiously design-led projects I’ve ever seen (and was lucky enough to briefly contribute to). There are so many fundamental “design tool” software features that have had to be re-imagined for these new form factors—like the objects list or properties panel—and this team managed to invent entirely new solutions that really work. It’s worth the ticket just to take the tour!

Play is one of the only reasons my iPad gets much use these days. Its such a clever tool that enables designers to think in context and with developer constraints. Is there a better way to design for mobile than on mobile?? Cheers to the team making this happen!
Alex Greene
@justanothersidd Thanks for much for the kind words Sid! We're so happy to hear Play is a core tool on your iPad!

Impressive demo! You're also pushing the "norms" by making the creation tooling mobile first. Have you received pushback from designers that are used to doing this on a computer?

@rrhoover Do you think this app can become Figma for iOS?
Dan LaCivita
@rrhoover Thanks for the question! We believe there is still an important role for the desktop—we'll be making some exciting announcements on that soon! By starting with the phone it gave us the opportunity to rethink how to use the actual device we're designing for as more than an afterthought in the design process. We're really excited with how the iOS platform will work with other mediums (like desktop and tablet) to create a fresh approach for what a modern product design tool looks like.

Congrats on the launch guys! It seems really easy to use while the output is cool & impressive designs.

Thanks for the nice words @cem_bulut

Designing for mobile on your mobile device? As with all good design, it seems obvious once you see it. Will definitely try this.

@todaviamal It's definitely surprises a lot of people how well it works on iOS!
