WebP support for animated prototyping and export

Would be awesome to support a Webp file when exporting images like Sketch. (without using any plug-ins)

yup same deal. Why doesn’t Figma support this?

I really do think Figma needs to address this as soon as possible. TinyImage creating a subscription paywall after X uses and forcing a year subscription down your throat is a bit dubious to me. Consider the scenario. You are in a time crunch and have to export to the WebP format. You might have worked really hard getting your production files within Figma just right so its rather automated, then you are forced to either go back to Sketch to export or buy a 3rd Party plugin. Not cool.

I would like to have this feature natively as well.

One more person would find this particularly useful! Is it time to go back to sketch?

Same for me. I have to export the bitmap resources in PNG and then convert them to WEBP in Adobe Photoshop. It would be great to export them straight from Figma.

I feel ike like this is low hanging fruit for figma to get on top yknow.

I would like to have the WebP format option as well. Currently trying TinyImage but don’t want to pay for something that should be native to Figma - like it is in Sketch.

The only alternative is TinyImage, but the free version is not intuitive. When I finished importing one batch, I was unable to import the following one, and it continued to show older batches. It’s nearly impossible to choose new images to import, and I believe this is because I am using a free version or has bugs…

This would be nice to have. I usually put all the images through Photoshop to convert them to Webp. It would be a timesaver if we could do this in Figma itself.
