I want to open the figma file URL directly within the Figma desktop app. 

Suggestion: when clicking on the new tab in the desktop app, I can add the URL in the search bar to directly open the file within desktop app. 

Problem: It’s frustrating to open the copied figma file URL in browser then wait for it to open the app.

Wow, thanks for shedding light. Never knew this is existed. 

This solves my problem but I think they can advance the searchbar in newtab to support URLs so that it will be more accessible. What do you think ?
