Why can’t I edit my Figma files in mobile app

2

Hi there! I confirm that it’s not possible to edit Figma design files using the mobile app.
As reminder, anyone with can view access can view files and prototypes and leave comments.
Anyone with can edit access can mirror frames from their desktop.

You can use the Figma mobile app to:

  • Search, browse, and view files and prototypes
  • Present and test prototypes without being tethered to your desktop
  • Comment on files and prototypes
  • Mirror selected frames from your desktop to a mobile device
  • Edit FigJam files
  • Navigate teams and projects
  • Mark files and projects as favorites for fast access
  • Stay in the loop when working outside of Figma with push notifications
    For more information, you can check our guide here: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500007537281-Guide-to-the-Figma-mobile-app Hope it helps!

The question was WHY we cant edit, not what we can do.

Because it’s not a feature that has been developed. :face_with_monocle:
