UI2 is Back — Because the User Always Wins!

I stopped waiting for a fix.I built it myself. Yes — a full browser extension that brings back UI2 the way we all remember it. Everything just… feels like home again. I know you miss me :( And I didn’t build this because I’m a developer with nothing to do.I built this because I felt ignored. A while ago, I made a post: “UI3 mess: We never asked for this dear Figma or I should say Adobe…” Some of you replied. It got views. It got shared.And yet — nothing changed.Figma never responded. No option to switch. No care. So instead of shouting into the void, I opened my laptop and said: Fine. I’ll fix it myself. I’m just a guy from a third-world country who genuinely loves Figma — for the Figma that just worked! But I do have strong opinions, decent dev skills, and apparently… a lot of free rage to convert into code.So I poured it all into this. UI2 — back. Functional. Familiar. Home. But here’s the twist:I’m not done. I’ve had ideas for ages — like being able to customize your shortcuts.Imagi

BRING UI2 BACK!

DEAR FIGMA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? you got rid of one of the most intuitive designs and replaced it with an awful version of it without giving the core component of your company (THE USERS) an option to switch back! i hope your company goes bankrupt honestly. no wonder people started paying for damn SKETCH.

Forcing UI3 on us is a HUGE mistake! Let us choose! - April 30

I can't believe Figma is forcing this change on us. UI3 is, without a doubt, the most unfriendly design possible. It has made my workflow painfully slow and incredibly unproductive. What’s the harm in letting people CHOOSE which UI works best for them? I always thought switching to UI3 was a HUGE mistake, but I never felt the need to comment on it because UI2 was still an option. Now that you're FORCING this change, I have to speak up. This is NOT an upgrade. It’s a downgrade in usability, efficiency, and user experience. Figma was supposed to be about flexibility and user-centered design—so why ignore the feedback of those who actually use the platform every day? Give us back the choice. Let people stick to UI2 if they want. This forced migration is a slap in the face to long-time users who built their workflow around UI2.

UI3 IS NOT AN IMPROVEMENT! can you not force us to switch PLEASE?! or let us configure the UI to our needs?

Did you actually test UI3 on power users? I suspect not given that the simple and intuitive UI2 is now ruined by annoying extra clicking and UI elements not being placed together. This “update” is a backwards step and we as users should be able to choose and configure how we want the UI for our purposes. The bottom centre floating tool bar is just wrong for power users.

UI3 Feedback

What I can’t stand the most is that the panels of the new UI can’t be attached to the edges. They leave some gaps, wasting the space to display the main design and operation area. And visually, these gaps are also distracting my attention. The toolbar at the bottom also interferes with the main operation space, especially if its color is the same as my design draft. By the way, is it just for the convenience of novices to move it from the top to the bottom? If someone who uses Figma more frequently, he will use shortcuts instead of mouse clicks to trigger these functions. So I hope that adjustments can be made in time in the official version of UI3, otherwise these redesign will seem like a subjective conjecture of someone who doesn’t use Figma much.

Figma UI3: A Masterclass in Making Everything Worse

This new Figma UI3 is just awful. Everything looks weird and it's super confusing now. I hate it. Why did you even change anything? It was fine before. Nothing makes sense anymore. Total downgrade. Please just put it back or something. I'm literally begging. Ew. Also, if you're not going to revert it, at least give us a 'Classic UI' toggle so we can pretend everything’s still okay. Thanks, I guess.

Please bring back ui2

Please bring back ui2, it's very hard to work with Figma right now actually. Instead of a gradual change, everything changed all at once. There's no need to make things more complicated than they need to be. I've always been a big fan of Figma. It's so easy to use and it's a pleasure to work with. After spending some time getting to know Adobe's various features, I've found a product that's as easy as it is delightful. Whether I can creating both banners or designing pages, this product makes it a breeze. I learned all the features and capabilities in just one day in UI2! Now, with the new UI3, working with a simple project is lengthened many times over. I just wanted to let you know that the menu on the right is very tricky to use. It's working with frames, and the position of objects inside has become inconvenient and very long. I would really appreciate it if you could bring back the UI2 selection. I'm struggling with the new interface for the third day and can't get used to it. I h

I could live with the unmoveable toolbar but "Actions" is really terrible UX to use.

I scroll through here and see many folks upset about UI3… and I guess my feelings about it overall are not as strong because I could live with the unmovable toolbar but I will say that tucking Plugins and Assets under “Actions” is a terrible user experience. Ironic… considering who uses Figma primarily are UX designers. 99% of the time I’m going into “Actions” it’s to grab a component and it’s incredibly annoying to have to click open, search, click assets, click more when it doesn’t show in the first 4 suggestions… Even using hotkeys to do this is painful. Could I just have a “Assets” button that has all my components in a scrollable little window? Please?

20 Days until we are forced onto UI3 and no word about being able to move the toolbar

20 days until we are forced for no real reason onto UI3. I would prefer not to swap to UI3, as I much prefer UI2, but I cannot even fathom making the switch with that tool bar stuck at the bottom of the screen right where I look at my work. PLEASE give us the option to move this toolbar at the very least.

ui3 is terrible

ui3 feels like illustrator for babies. the interface is so horrifyingly oversimplified and dumbed down that it makes microsoft paint look like feature-rich professional software. everything has been inexplicably moved around. essential features are buried so deep within cryptic menus that finding a tool feels like trying to find the minotaur at the end of a labyrinth. whose idea was it to move 90% of figma’s most useful features into this barely visible menu-thing? image depicting nonsensical ui3 design changes why was the toolbar suddenly moved to the bottom when it was stickied right at the top for at LEAST most of figma’s existence awful toolbar these design changes feel like they were made by someone who never used figma, or any design software at all, ever, beyond apple notes for ipad.

Is there any way that the max / min could be a fill

Hi, Is this crazy? But wondering if there was any way the max / min could be a fill so you didn't have to set to variable?

Contacting support

I have never been so angry at the company in my life. I paid for Full proffesional seat the previous month. Even though I cancelled it, money was withdrawn from my bank account. $15!!! As I contacted support, they answered me with something like “make sure that this is the correct email address”. So I did and texted them back. It’s been 5 days since I texted them, I never got an aswer!!! And today they dare to send me smth like “how did we do?” form, I am SO annoyed with them. How can the company be so disorganised and arrogant? Never in my life will I pay a cent for Figma anymore. Please tell me how to get an answer from them!!

Bring back switch to old Design!

If you value the users, you should listen to your community. Someone is fine with the new design, but some people raise a strong voice that they prefer the classic one. Why you ignore them and remove the option to use the classic interface?!

New UI is hot garbage

You’ve buried every relevant action multiple clicks into the UI. Simple things like adding a min-height or changing the responsiveness are now much harder. The UI is tanking designer productivity. There’s no hierarchy in the new UI. Scannability is out the window. Sitting here squinting at low-contrast UIs with size 10-pt font like the old geezer I apparently am. You’ve moved multiple properties. Why? This increases the mouse distance that you have to travel to do basic tasks. Even as someone who’s done print, I’m baffled why you chose color swatches as the icon for theme variables. The icon choices in the new UI reminded me of VSCO with how obtuse and unclear they are. I’m shocked that a tool for designers with a reputation for a user-centered culture not only shipped this UI, but then forced it on its users.

Bring back switch to old interface

Dear Figma, I would kindly ask to give users control over interface. Even in Adobe I can tailor my setup. I don't need a floating bar, I would like to customize my interface and make in more like original UI. Please keep in mind Figma is a tool! not fancy game or app. Hiding some functions that was easy to access before to dropdown is very bad move.

Annotation dragging

I love the annotations feature! It would be great if I could move an annotation from one frame to another. If the note was made on the wrong screen or an earlier iteration, I’m currently just copying and pasting the text from the annotation attached to the old frame to the new annotation on a new frame. Also a keyboard shortcut to quickly tag the annotation would be handy.

Why is UI3 made everything multi steps

In UI2, when you needed to add a property to a text component there was a button for it just next to a text field, so you when you use variants the text will be easy to change.For some reason someone thought that putting that function under “Apply variables” button (with variant icon) and adding extra steps to access this function will be SO user friendly and so much better. As a software for UX designers, have you even tested it on various UX designers?When you read the amount of complains for new UI update, maybe it’s something you should consider to make your customers satisfy? At least bring back the option to bring back the old UI!

UI3 Figma's menu corner radius is too big -- 14px

Figma's menu corner radius is too big -- 14px Windows default menu corner radius is 8px (logical resolution) macOS is 9px (logical resolution). When @2x scaled, it actually appears as 18px in the screenshot

Allow for component positioning, even when instances are "simplified"

Our design system has many components that can’t be edited beyond what is available in the props list. In the past, we generally enabled the “simplify all instances” option for these types of components (things like icons, checkboxes, switches, etc.). With the latest UI, “simplify all instances” hides the alignment features within the Position section of the design panel by default, which means any designer wanting to align one of these components within their design must first un-hide additional properties. It seems to me that a component’s alignment to other components shouldn’t be an “additional property” — positioning components within a layout is the first thing we do, and doesn’t involve editing the component itself. As a result, we’ve had to disable the “simplify” option across the board to make things easier for designers. This means displaying extra layers unnecessarily.

Figma font weight too thin since UI3

With UI3, the font weight of the Figma UI is thinner than it used to be, which makes it less legible. This is particularly bad when reading lengthy comments in my files. As with all body text, I would expect a regular weight, at least in this context. Is there a way to change that in the future?

UI3 mess: We never asked for this dear Figma or I should say Adobe.

Very good if there is anyone enjoying UI3 but the only solution here is allowing the user to choose between the classic and the new mess forever (never remove the classic from the option). Look I was going to mention all the declutters, but this is going to be very long. Just keep on making UI3 or 4 or 5 or 6 … but just allow us to stick to what feels HOME. “It said we listened to your feedback, and we made these changes” Please I’ve never came across such feedbacks but one thing is for sure, A lot of people is giving you feedback that UI3 is terrible. My heart goes out to the developers who made it, We know it takes a lot of effort to bring such changes however its more of psychological besides the new placement and all. So just allow us to stick to what we have called home and what we are familiar with. Who else didnt like UI3? (this might not be a constructive feedback just all we’re asking is for the option to stick to what we want instead of removing it at a given time)
