Multiple Flows Should Have Different Device Frames

It would be great if we could select different device frames for each flow. This would give huge benefits to those who design responsive websites side by side.

I made the switch from XD to Figma, because Figma has moved ahead of XD on most of the features, but this one XD does a lot better.

There you can set a ‘viewport height’ per screen you make. So then the preview mode inherits this together with the width of the screen, to portray your screen. And then you can switch between desktop/mobile just by selecting that screen and previewing it.

Really need this feature, I can’t keep sending different links to a client for every device size – they need to be able to click between the devices easily. When I use presentation as the device size, viewing the mobile screen means it’s cut off at the top and you can’t scroll realistically through the viewport. I think I am going to have to put them on separate prototype links but it is certainly making me feel like exporting them to Invision instead – which I don’t want to do!

As a webdesigner i design for different screen sizes, and I like to keep everything on the same page. To prototype different sizes i need to copy them to separate pages - which halts my workflow.

I’m planning to run through desktop and mobile designs with my client on Monday so I clicked a frame designed for Desktop, chose Prototype > Show prototype settings and set Device as 14" MBP. Clicked a frame designed for Mobile, chose Prototype > Show prototype settings and saw it too was set as 14" MBP. Changed that to iPhone 11 Pro. Clicked back in the desktop frame and that had changed to iPhone 11 Pro too.

I’m shook! You guys usually have it all figured out.

This thread is getting pretty old, when do we think we’ll get this fixed?

We are still in desperate need of this features. Having separate pages for Mobile / Tablet / Desktop doesn’t make sense. All our developers prefer to have all the breakpoints next to each other. The current setup is unnecessarily complex and time-consuming.

Using Figma since 2018.
