Figma Slides must support the presenters’ devices (clickers)

Figma Slides is a great tool, but in order to fully compete with PowerPoint and Google Presentation, this tool must support the presenters’ devices (clickers).

The head of the sales department is satisfied with the quality of our presentations, but it is inconvenient to show them to the audience without a clicker.

Guys, this is important.

Hi @Maksim_Sazonov, Thanks for sharing your thought. We understand that this is important to you. I’ll pass along this internally.

I just tested a nearby clicker and it appears that Figma Slide is not compatible with this one. It could be related to the type of clicker so check internally to see if we have any information about this.

Thank you once again for your input.

Figma Slides needs to support presenter devices to compete fully with PowerPoint and Google Presentation. Currently, the lack of clicker support makes it inconvenient for presenting to audiences. This feature is important for user convenience.

This feature is highly important for my team. We love collaboration in Figma slides, but then we do a double-work, transferring everything to Google Slides or Power Point.

Hey I don’t know how practical it is for any of you but the workaround I found myself is using a Nintendo Switch Joycon.

Both Mac and Windows support them as game controllers and there are free apps on both systems (I used JoyKeyMapper from the Mac App Store) to assign keybinds to the buttons.

So I just mapped the shoulder buttons of the left joycon to the back and forward arrows so I can now hold it like a clicker and it works pretty much just like one.
