  1. As a designer I would like to record my prototype screen or export it as a gif so I can use it in presentations and send quick examples in the team group.

  2. It would be great to have the same feature then Principle to record or export the prototype to gif.

  3. Does anyone have the same need? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

We need ways to include our prototypes in our slide decks without having to go into the prototype itself and demonstrate it from within Figma. Principle, Protopie - they all allow exporting prototypes in various formats like Gifs and videos. Having a similar feature in Figma would be great.

I wish I can export my prototype include with all the animation that I’ve made from Figma to Video format.

I mean, without plugins… Just from Figma. Or maybe i also export it as JSON files etc.

There should be an option to record the prototype on Figma. It will enable the designers to effectively show stakeholders how a particular product will function and will be great for presentation Currently, videos are recorded using 3rd party software or chrome extensions. It will definitely attract a lot of users especially users who design in XD and are already used to the feature.

Released 1st version of Blazy Studio. It is exporting prototype as video/gif in 4k/60fps or even higher resolution.

blazy.studio

It is free and works in macOS and windows.

You may face issues running it on your machine, if so - please contact me https://twitter.com/orkhanjafarovr

It would be pretty convenient to be able to export device mockups directly from the prototype mode when viewing the designs. This would save alot of time because we wont have to download separate device mockup files and drag screen frames into it.
