Link Frames Across Files with Option to Confirm Updates

I use Figma to design multiple applications and products, and sometimes I need to replicate the same frames or pages across different files. My idea is to add a feature that allows linking frames across files. This way, when I make edits to a specific frame in one file, the changes automatically reflect in a corresponding frame in another file.

Additionally, I think it would be very helpful to have update options, so I can choose whether updates happen automatically or if I need to confirm (approve) them first. An extra option for manual sync could also be beneficial, allowing me to select when to sync the frames, especially when I’m making large adjustments to a project and prefer not to update linked frames immediately."

Expected Benefits:

  • Saves time and effort on multi-file projects.
  • Ensures consistent design across different files.
  • Provides flexibility in choosing when and how updates are applied to linked frames.

Additional Notes
“This feature would add immense value to UI/UX designers working on interlinked projects, giving them greater control and flexibility. I hope this is something the team can consider in future updates!”
