Figma Screen Recordings, Made Beautiful

Record design reviews, prototype walkthroughs, and handoff sessions in Figma with automatic zoom that keeps up with your cursor — so viewers never lose track of what you're clicking.

No account needed. Free forever with optional paid upgrade.

Why Recording Figma Is Harder Than It Looks

Figma's canvas is massive, its UI elements are tiny, and viewers watching a full-screen recording can barely see what you're doing.

Tiny UI Elements Disappear on Screen

Figma's interface is packed with small icons, layer names, and property panels. When you record your full screen, viewers can't distinguish a 12px icon from a checkbox. Design details that took you hours to craft become invisible smudges in the recording.

The Canvas Is Infinite, But Recordings Aren't

You zoom in, zoom out, pan across artboards — it's natural when you're designing. But for viewers watching a recording, this constant movement is disorienting. They lose context of which screen you're on and why you're navigating there.

Prototype Interactions Are Impossible to Follow

When presenting interactive prototypes, you click hotspots that are nearly invisible in recordings. Viewers see screens changing but can't tell what triggered the transition. The connection between your clicks and the UI response gets completely lost.

Comments and Feedback Get Lost

Leaving design feedback on a Figma file via screen recording means pointing at specific pixels. Without zoom, your cursor movements are vague at best. Colleagues have to guess which element you're referring to.

How Zumie Makes Figma Recordings Crystal Clear

Zumie's automatic zoom follows your cursor in real-time, so every click, hover, and selection in Figma is magnified exactly when viewers need to see it.

Auto-Zoom on Every Interaction

When you click a layer, adjust a property, or hover over a component — Zumie automatically zooms in to show the detail. Viewers see exactly what you see, at the resolution you see it. No more squinting at tiny sidebar values.

Click Highlights Show Intent

Every click gets a visual highlight that pops on screen. When you click a prototype hotspot, select a layer, or toggle a property, the highlight draws the viewer's eye to exactly where the action is happening.

Smooth Pan Transitions

As you navigate across Figma's infinite canvas, Zumie's zoom creates smooth, cinematic transitions instead of jarring jumps. Viewers feel like they're watching a polished design presentation, not a raw screen capture.

Beautiful Backgrounds Hide Desktop Clutter

Zumie wraps your Figma tab in a clean, gradient background — hiding your bookmarks bar, other tabs, and desktop notifications. Your recording looks like a professional demo, not a casual screen share.

How People Use Zumie with Figma

Real scenarios where Zumie's auto-zoom makes Figma recordings dramatically more useful.
