Do You Need a Figma Account to Leave Comments?

For those who aren’t familiar with the design tool Figma, it is an online platform used to create, collaborate and share design assets. In order to do this, a user must have an account created on the Figma platform. This allows them to save and store their designs, as well as collaborate with other users and view designs they have been invited to view.

Figma also provides a commenting feature which allows users to leave comments on different design assets. This allows for collaboration between multiple users in a similar manner as if they were in the same physical space. However, one of the questions that is often asked is whether or not you need a Figma account to leave comments.

The answer is yes, you do need an account in order to leave comments on designs in Figma. Without an account, you will not be able to access any of the features of the platform, including leaving comments.

It should be noted however that anyone can view designs without having an account and can even hover over elements within a design to see what people are saying about them. If you want to actually leave your own comments though, you will need a Figma account.

Figma accounts are free so signing up for one does not cost anything and only requires providing some basic information such as your name, email address and password. Once your account is set up and activated, you will then be able to comment on any assets and collaborate with other users.

Conclusion: In conclusion it should be noted that while anyone can view designs on Figma without an account being required, if someone wants to participate in collaboration with other users then they must have their own Figma account set up in order to do so. Having a Figma account also unlocks other features that can be useful when creating or editing designs such as saving versions of your work or sharing them with team members.
