Although there is an option to “Show/hide hotspot hints on click” within the options menu in the web/desktop app prototype view, there is no such option in the mobile app.
As mentioned by everyone else who has requested this feature, this is critical for user testing with the mobile app.
Please read the description of the request carefully instead of replying by saying that this feature exists in the desktop app. I am referring to the mobile app.
Thank you for the quick reply. Although I do see this option in the prototype menu on the iOS mobile app, it is unresponsive. Tapping that option does not affect the visibility of the hotspot hints in the prototype.
I had the same issue and had a chat with the Figma Support who told me that they indeed found a bug in my case and that it will be fixed in iOS 21.12.0 which will be released on the 2nd of August. Hopefully it will work for you then as well.
Still not working. We are having a user test tomorrow and due to this bug it is going to be totally nonsense as the users will see all the hotspots.
We are using iOS devices.
Please Figma, solve this asap - it will be a life saving function.
I would appreciate the option to turn off hotspot hints when using the Mirror feature. I can turn off hotspot hints when running a prototype from the iPad app directly, but not when using mirror, which makes it impossible to use mirror for user testing on real devices.
I’m using the latest version (23.18.0) of the Figma iOS app on iPad.
Here are two screenshots from the iOS app, first the missing option in the Mirror, seconds the options when running the prototype directly on iPad.
