Folio is an independent, native iPad app that hosts Figma's web editor and adds document tabs, multiple windows, Apple Pencil, touch and trackpad adaptations, a bottom toolbar with modifier keys, interface zoom and native downloads. Figma's own editor, your own account and files. Nothing in between.
Free. Needs iPadOS 26 or later (iOS 26 for the iPhone Alpha on TestFlight), an internet connection and a Figma account.
Folio does not reimplement Figma. It runs the real editor in a native shell and adapts iPad input to standard browser behavior. Every feature below is in the current build, shown in real screenshots. Physical-device acceptance is still in progress.
Pinch to zoom the canvas on a trackpad, Ctrl-scroll to zoom with a mouse, and switch tabs, windows and settings with hardware keyboard commands.
Hold Command in Folio to see every available command. Figma's own editing shortcuts still belong to Figma.
One-shot or locked Shift, Control, Option and Command, a flick-to-press arrow key with hold-to-repeat, plus Undo, Redo, Cut, Copy, Paste, Duplicate, Group and Frame selection.
Pencil & Touch pans the canvas with one finger and edits with the Pencil. Touch Only turns a finger into the pointer. Two-finger pan and pinch, hold menus and easier panel resizing in both.
Open several files at once, pin the ones you need, reopen closed tabs and spread work across windows. Tabs come back on relaunch.
A Download Center with progress and preview. Share, Save to Files, or add exported images to Photos without leaving the app.
The flagship. Any iPad on iPadOS 26 or later; Apple Pencil, trackpad, mouse and hardware keyboard are optional. Large files can exceed iPad browser memory limits, so Folio unloads background tabs under pressure and recovers from WebContent crashes.
The TestFlight Alpha puts the canvas first: Figma's own minimized UI, with Layers and Properties in a bottom sheet in portrait and side panels in landscape. A floating tool pill mirrors Figma's Design and Dev Mode tools, with a pinned Design | Dev switch. Tapping the lit tool cycles its group. Number fields get a key row on the keyboard. Folded and unfolded iPhone Duo layouts are included, and regular iPhones use Touch Only. Needs iOS 26 or later. The App Store release is iPad only; iPhone testing runs through TestFlight. This is Alpha: not yet verified on every device, and Figma editing on phones is not guaranteed.
Folio 1.0 is on the App Store for iPad, tested on real iPads. iPhone support is in Alpha on TestFlight.
No. Folio is an independent project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Figma, and it uses no Figma logo or icon artwork. Figma's own terms and privacy policy apply to its web editor.
Yes. Folio shows Figma's own web editor, signed in with your own account. Nothing is copied, converted or synced by Folio; you work in the same files and teams as on the desktop.
No. The editor is Figma's web app, so Folio needs an internet connection and a Figma account.
Not inside Folio. Google blocks sign-in from embedded browsers, so Folio hides the Google button on Figma's login page and shows guidance if you reach Google another way. Use email and password (with a second factor if required) or your organization's SSO. Signing in with Safari does not sign Folio in.
Any iPad on iPadOS 26 or later. Pencil, trackpad and keyboard are optional. Very large files can exceed iPad browser memory limits; close unused tabs or lower the tab cap in Settings.
iPhone support is Alpha, through TestFlight on iOS 26 or later; the App Store release is iPad only. Figma stays in its own minimized UI, with Layers and Properties in a bottom sheet (side panels in landscape), a floating tool pill and iPhone Duo layouts. It is not yet verified on every device, and Figma editing on phones is not guaranteed.
Large files can exceed WebKit memory limits. Folio unloads background tabs under memory pressure, recovers from WebContent crashes and offers a Safe mode that turns every adaptation off.
Folio is for people who want the full web editor on iPad with tabs, windows, a keyboard-and-trackpad workflow and native downloads. It complements Figma rather than replacing it.
Folio is free. The source is public on GitHub (github.com/foliodesign/folio) under the Apache-2.0 licence. Figma's own pricing applies to your Figma account.
Free to use. Your own Figma account and files, nothing in between. The source is onGitHub under Apache-2.0.
