Ability to control file size on export without plugins

Was this ever resolved? I landed here from a google search… How is image optimization at export not a default built in feature of Figma? Are there any free alternatives?

I’m probably going to just switch back to Sketch.

Not really, I don’t understand why this is not a built in feature too, it’s a basic functionality present on any other design tool.

Completely twisted to think of creating an integrated voice chat feature when you can’t compress the exports… At this time our workflow is to export then compress assets with Photoshop or TinyPNG, just writing it I realize how stupid it is…

I absolutely agree. There needs to be a native feature to compress/optimize image assets for the web within Figma. It’s weird knowing that Figma doesn’t have this feature in-built up till now.

A request to Figma to please integrate such a feature as quickly as possible to streamline our workflow.

Hi @Figma_Support please can you share an update on this. That will be great. Thanks.

Absolutely, this is insane. Figma it’s a prototype software but it doesn’t allow you to output for production. Tiny Image is ridiculously expensive. It costs the same as the basic Webflow plan.

So Figma guys, please, this is crucial! Right now I have to export all the images from Photoshop or Illustrator, which has artboards and can export for screens.

Figma? Any updates?..

Hey Figma Team! Totally suprised that theres no quality settings in exporting JPGs. Please take this up! (actually, I saw a blog article that said it was there as “Export as” option, but dont see that either.

article that says you can change quality. FYI

That site is total garbage and just an SEO machine - they somehow got highly ranked in Google and seem to create posts with totally inaccurate content. Literally 100% of the posts I have seen from them when Googling have zero accuracy with regard to any of the tools and processes in Figma. Avoid.

Just want to say I am wrapping a 3 month long project where every item I exported from Figma I had to drag back into Sketch to mass reexport with reduced jpg quality in order to not upload 1mb jpgs that ought to be 150kb into my website.

I understand there are plugins but on principal this is insane, do better Figma.

Same problem here 2024 already and still no way to know how huge individual frames are before exporting. it’s getting harder to compress things after export. HELP!

Thanks it is helpful for my SEO Agency.
