Updates to our pricing, seats, and billing experience

We are updating our pricing, seats, and billing experience. Here’s what you need to know before changes take effect on March 11, 2025. Product design looks very different today than it did when we first launched Figma in 2016. Multiplayer design was still a novel concept, and features that are now core to our product - auto layout, interactive components, variables, and multi-edit - were just ideas we hoped to one day build. While our features and products have expanded since then, our billing experience hasn’t kept pace. Today, we want to share upcoming changes to our pricing, seats, and billing experience. These changes will take effect starting on March 11, 2025, and will include: Increased pricing for Figma Design Re-architecture of our billing model - we are moving away from user-driven upgrades to giving admins upfront approval over seat upgrades by default More functionality with every seat - all paid seats will include access to FigJam and Figma Slides, making it easier for ev

VS Code extension — tips if you're having trouble getting set up

Hi there, The Dev Mode team are looking into the problems some people are having while trying to get started with the VS Code extension, and hope to have updates out soon, but for now have asked us to share the following tips: The extension is not currently compatible with VS Code Insiders though we’re hoping to have support for this soon. For now we suggest use the regular VS Code version if you’d like to use Figma for VS Code: Download Visual Studio Code - Mac, Linux, Windows If you are are stuck in a loop of VS Code asking you to “Accept terms and conditions” please log into VS Code before connecting in Figma. You can log in to the VS Code extension by: Clicking the Figma icon in the sidebar of VS Code Clicking “Log In” and following the instructions You can then click “Open in VS Code” in Figma however, you may need to accept our Terms of Use to allow VSCode to connect.

Drafts are changing—here’s what you need to know

For users on a Starter or Professional team, we’re relocating where your drafts live. Starting this week, you’ll be asked to move your drafts into a team space. If you’re on a Starter or Pro team, here’s what to expect: Your drafts are now in a space called “Drafts to move.” You can move your drafts at once into the appropriate teams—or create a free Starter team for all your drafts. When you move your drafts to a team, they will still be private. You will still be able to create and edit drafts free of charge. You may not see this prompt immediately, as we’ll be rolling out this update over the next few days. Check out the video, below, for a walk-through of this update. Changes to Drafts You can read more about this change here on our blog and in our help center

🆕 Variables improvements: Scoping & more! 🚀

Typography variables now include scoping, a follow up from Framework Scoping a variable allows you to limit which properties it can be applied to. This gives you better control over where the variable can be used and cuts out the guesswork when designing. For example, if you scope a number variable to font size, you’ll only be able to apply the variable to font size. x.com We’ve clarified the mechanics of copying and pasting an object bound to local variables No longer automatically populating a file with local variables by default unless a user specifies Introducing an interstitial tooltip (B) that requires the user to confirm before bringing along any local variables.

🆕 Making FigJam accessible to screen readers

We’re excited to announce that we’ve made FigJam compatible with screen readers. Users that rely on screen reader technology can now interact with FigJam boards by: reading out content, including board hierarchy, shapes with text, stickies, tables, and image alt text moving focus around the canvas and into different menus creating and editing content, such as any editable text or comments using a screen reader or keyboard shortcuts You can read more about which actions are supported via screen reader in our Help Center. This is our first iteration in making FigJam more inclusive from an accessibility standpoint, and we’d love to learn more about how we can improve upon this work. Please leave comments below about your experience using FigJam with a screen reader, improvements we can make, and what you’d like to see us tackle next to make FigJam a place where everyone can jam together!
