Question

Can we have a way to undelete comments

It would be nice to have a way to undelete a comment. I accidentally deleted a comment when I meant to resolve it. I could not get the comment back. I could not even Undo deleting the comment.

Can you please add a trashcan like feature to recover deleted comments?

    Hey Donald, thanks for sharing your feedback! I can see how not being able to recover a deleted comment could be inconvenient. I’ve passed your suggestion along to the team for consideration. Thank you!

    It’s absurd that comments can be recovered. Accidentally lost comments could be important string suggestions that are hard to recreate. I just lost 10 minutes of precise string suggestions because Figma doesn’t have UNDO for comments — a feature present in software for over 40 years.

    This would be a very useful feature. Comments often contain important feedback, decisions, and context for a project, so accidentally deleting one can be frustrating—especially when there's no way to recover it. A trash bin or "Recently Deleted" section for comments would help prevent permanent data loss and give users a chance to restore comments that were removed by mistake. Even a short recovery window or an Undo option after deletion would make the commenting workflow much more forgiving and user-friendly.
