Export/record prototype to Video or GIF

Felipe_Almeida · 2021-01-29T13:07:17+00:00

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. It would be great to have the same feature then Principle to record or export the prototype to gif. Does anyone have the same need? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

Many times I have to share my prototype in small video formats, usually I record screen but this creates many extra-work because after I have to edit, some times I dont record the prototype in the same size. it would be great to be able to export my prototype as a video directly from Figma.

thanks 🙂

+1 on this feature!

I would really love that this could be a new feature, I have found myself talking to members of the team about how to show prototypes and people usually ask if I have a gif or a video to show.

Thanks!

I have a similar request. But, instead of exporting a video, I’d like to embed an audio file synced to a cursor follow. That would allow reviews to get a tour natively in the file so they can add comments.
