I find the thumbnail is slow to update and often doesn’t update for days (at all?). A work around has been to choose “Restore default thumbnail” and then “Set as thumbnail” on the desired frame. The thumbnail has become an important feature to me and I use it to convey information to my team. The inconsistent thumbnail updates are a little problematic.

Suggested solution: an option in the right-click menu for the file to “Refresh thumbnail”.

Same problem here! I’d love an option to right click and refresh the thumbnail. I’ve been experiencing this issue on a regular basis since joining Figma in Feb 2020. The “restore default thumbnail” workaround is my typical go-to, but unfortunately that doesn’t even work 100% of the time.

I disagree with other posters on this a little. For me refresh would be nice but it should just be updated instantly. Typically one thumbnail would be edited at a time so in my view it should just push the update as soon as you exit the screen on which it sits.
