Does anyone know if it’s possible to get hold of the Figma Android APK? I’d like to sideload it onto a device which does not have access to the Play Store in order to test a prototype in situ.
Question
Figma APK
I understand the concern about getting Figma on a device without Play Store access. It reminded me of when I needed an alternative app installation method, which led me to explore the apk. This issue is quite common when testing prototypes on various devices, and I've seen designers use Figma for game UI design.
Hey, Dan Lucyszyn-Hinton
If your device doesn’t support the Play Store, getting the APK from unofficial sources can be risky due to outdated or modified files. A safer option is using the browser version of Figma or installing the app through an alternative trusted Android store if supported. You could also transfer the official APK from another Android device using backup tools. For prototype testing, opening the shared Figma link in a mobile browser often works well without installation.
Another option is enabling device mirroring or remote testing from a Play Store-enabled device. This helps avoid compatibility and security issues while testing prototypes in real conditions.
