Its beyond frustrating that to view annotations you have to have a Figma license. People like BA’s and PO’s just need to see annotations but do not need to edit or review the files merely look at the designs and see the annotations to get an idea of the functionality.
Our organisation has many licenses as we have a large team of designers and developers all who have licenses. The annotations feature should be made viewable to people you share a file with without having to purchase a license.
To get around this we have created an annotations component but the built in one is so much easier to use.
Figma please make the new annotations feature viewable to all. I understand the licensing aspect for editing etc but to view an annotation makes no sense that you would need to purchase another license so someone can view a note.
