Hey ​@leonidev,

We hear you. This is correct. There is no functional difference between using the desktop app and accessing Figma through a browser. Both versions provide the same core features and functionality, since Figma is as a browser-based. The desktop app is more  of a specialized browser window. The Figma desktop app also allows you to:

  • Develop plugins and widgets for your organization or the Figma Community
  • Access and use fonts installed on your device without needing the font installer


We’ll pass your feedback onto the team for future consideration.
