Hi @Ines_Nesi_Kracun - I think your sentiment is valid (and not childish in any sense). While I don’t have any explicit power in this case, I did want to express that I hear you.

UI3 will be granted to individuals on a rolling basis. We are not able to activate it for entire teams simultaneously, but we expect all users to have access over the next few months.

Additionally: rest assured that all functionality remains consistent across both the old Figma design and UI3. This should ensure that there will be no disruption in your team’s daily operations, even if some members are using different versions.

Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work towards enhancing your Figma experience.

EDIT: I also modified your topic title a bit to emphasize your message a bit more]

I am noticing the same thing in my org. Users that have only view seats are getting the new UI before users with an editor seat, which I think is wrong as they are the audience that is in actual use of the new UI and are using it at a higher frequency (like 12+ hours a day).

I am also noticing that no user that actually signed up for the waitlist has the new UI, while users that do not care for it (which is why they did not sign up) have it already. I would have thought that the priority was going towards users that sign up! Why have the waitlist if Figma was going to ignore it?

I’m going with my coworker’s (who, like me, waitlisted) theory: they’re letting all the people who didn’t want/don’t care about UI3 be the guinea pigs so that the flaws are ironed out before Figma power users/enthusiasts (the folks who signed up for it) get their hands on it.

That’s what I’m telling myself anyway. Every time Figma tells me it’s updating, then relaunches without UI3, I shed a single tear. 🥲

OH I held my breath and then cried when I updated this morning!!

Same here. That …is the biggest joke so far in regard to new UI and it’s rollout.

I shed so many, but told their support team that is a bit easier with a glass of wine. 😢

In a similar scenario to where I’m teaching Figma across 3 courses and most of my newly onboarded students have the new UI3. It’s unfortunate that we participated even with most days of Config and waitlisted the day of announcement and yet similar. Imagine trying to teach this to students who have had zero exposure at a University setting.

It’s frustrating that the Education sector was not considered for this especially when we onboard new students on a monthly basis as well.

I’m hoping it releases soon because its becoming more challenging to introduce students to Figma due to this oversight.

I am in the same boat!

Same issue here, I am the lead designer and was the only person to join the waitlist in my company and I am still the only person that does not have it. Even the dev team has access to the new UI3. It is extremely frustrating, it’s been almost 3 months and I know Figma can’t add a whole team but can’t add one person manually if circumstances permit? Waiting is hard haha

First of all, I also still don’t have the new UI layout yet. Working together with Figma and everyone having a different layout looks so amateurish. And causes allot of communication issues.

Secondly, I don’t like the new UI. It’s an overdesign at best. And it looks like it just follows a design trend instead of making the ui better.

It even managed to make things even worse in some cases. Why is there a dropdown to clip content now instead of a checkbox like before?

So many small things changed for the worst.

Is a reason why it is taking so long because Figma is taking all this ‘negative’ feedback and scratching their head?

The ui looks great, but it is just that, it is far less functional than it is pretty.
