Switch to the old Figma UI

ok just found out how to do that, apparently there’s a GO BACK TO PREVIOUS UI button in the help thingie (the question mark in the bottom right of the screen)

I want to use older version of Figma ui and i am unable to switch to older version, How can I do so

For more context:

Hello guys,

I am having a headache with the new Figma UI update. Its so not user friendly and its more difficult to work with. Is there a way to revert the current edition to the previous one?

Hi @Amanesi_I,

I have just merged your topic with an existing one.
Please check @Raphael_M response above on how to switch to the previous UI.

I hope you have an easier time with it!

I don’t have option to switch back to old ui? is there any other workaround?

It’s in the help button (the question mark in the bottom left. The menu contains “Go back to previous UI” I love the previous UI 😃

Thank you so much for me. You literally save my life!

I don’t see it there anymore…

Maybe contact support about this, could be a bug. I doubt they took it out on purpose, at least I really hope they didn’t.

Hey @Sarah_Maddox, sorry to hear this!

@Raphael_M’s solution above is correct. What are you seeing on your end from the ? menu? Are you able to share a screenshot?

Hey @19bwhite180, sorry for the confusion!

From your screenshot, you are in a Slides file. The option to go back to previous UI is only available via the ? icon when you are in a Figma Design file.

Just wanted to thank the Figma team for listening to the community regarding UI3. Initially I hated it, it was awful, I just tried it now and it doesn’t feel like I’m using an entirely different app, which was my initial feeling :)))) Not sure what was wrong with the previous one, but the new one feels good too :)

Hey, guys. 

I'm facing a similar problem. There is also no button to switch to the old interface. I'm using the desktop version. My account is old. What could be the problem?

Hi. UI2 was removed and no longer available to switch

Hi,
I used to hate UI3, but Figma listened to our requests and did a really good job with it. Trust me, give it a try, you’ll like it. And if you don’t, there’s nothing you can do but use it anyway :)))). But it’s really good, it’s nothing like the first UI3 version, which was absolutely terrible.

The fact we can’t choose between versions is insane..

Dear Figma, can you please activate old design switch. Taking it off ruin my work day and Im wasting time on your new UI instead of work. Figma is a tool not a play game 

The new UI is inconvenient, slow, has many unnecessary animations and useless decorations. This slows down the work and loads the PC. It is strange that users ask to return the old one, but their opinion does not matter. Convenience is at the expense of novelty. Please add a way to switch to UI2.

… or add UI4 please

I am happy about the new UI, if Figma developers need to show the work they done, it's OK. Let it be. But do not take away the old UI from users. It has been unavailable since May. We use figma every day, and our reviews is the best resouses for UI research. We ask to return the old UI switcher.
