FigJam Recordings Your Team Can Actually Follow

Record brainstorming sessions, workshop recaps, and diagram walkthroughs in FigJam with automatic zoom that magnifies sticky notes, connectors, and annotations.

No account needed. Free forever with optional paid upgrade.

Why FigJam Recordings Turn Into Visual Soup

FigJam boards get big fast. Dozens of sticky notes, stamps, connectors, and sections spread across a vast canvas — recordings capture it all as a colorful blur.

Sticky Note Text Is Unreadable

FigJam boards fill up with sticky notes containing ideas, feedback, and action items. When you record the full board, the text on each sticky shrinks to illegible marks. The most important content — what people actually wrote — disappears.

Board Navigation Is Disorienting

Zooming and panning across a large FigJam board during recording creates a dizzying experience. Viewers lose spatial context — they can't tell if you moved to a new section or just scrolled within the same cluster.

Stamps and Reactions Are Tiny Dots

Voting stamps, emoji reactions, and small annotations that represent team consensus become indistinguishable colored dots in recordings. The collaborative feedback that makes FigJam valuable is invisible.

Connector Labels Disappear

Connectors between elements often have labels explaining relationships. These thin lines and small text labels vanish completely in full-board recordings, losing the logical flow of your diagram.

How Zumie Makes FigJam Recordings Crystal Clear

Zumie auto-zooms to each element you interact with on the FigJam board, making sticky notes, stamps, and connectors readable the moment you click or hover on them.

Sticky Notes Zoomed on Interaction

Click a sticky note and Zumie zooms in to show the full text at readable size. Walk through brainstorming results one note at a time with perfect clarity.

Smooth Section Transitions

As you pan across the board, Zumie creates smooth transitions that maintain spatial context. Viewers understand when you move to a new section versus scrolling within one.

Stamps and Votes Made Visible

When you hover over or click voting stamps and reactions, Zumie magnifies them. Viewers see which ideas got the most votes and what feedback was left.

Clean, Focused Recordings

Record just the FigJam tab with a polished background. No browser distractions — just your whiteboard content presented professionally.
