How to Record a Figma Review on Mac
Figma Present plays a prototype in a tab. It does not export that walkthrough as a video. Record the Present window on your Mac, talk through the flow, and cut the review in ScreenKite.
Short answer: open the prototype in Figma Present, record that window with your voice, then cut the review on a ScreenKite timeline. Stakeholders get an MP4 they can watch without a Figma seat.

What does Figma give you for a review?
Figma's Play your prototypes help plays the prototype in a separate tab. It does not describe an MP4 export of that walkthrough.
A shared prototype link still makes the reviewer click through the flow. A recorded review is a file they can watch once.
How do you record a Figma review in ScreenKite?
- Open the file. Click Present, or use Command-Option-Return, as Figma documents.
- Hide the extra chrome you do not want in the shot. Fullscreen if the flow fills the frame.
- Start ScreenKite on the Present window. Capture your microphone. Add system audio if the prototype plays sound.
- Click through the flow once. Name the problem in the first ten seconds, then show the screens.
- Stop. Cut the fumbles on the timeline. Export a local MP4. Exports are lightning fast, in our tests and in user feedback.
How does a prototype link compare with a review video?
| Need | Figma Present | ScreenKite |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Interactive prototype in a tab (help) | A recording of that tab plus your voice |
| What the reviewer does | Clicks the flow | Watches an MP4 |
| Extra seats | A Figma share | No Figma seat required to watch the file |
| After the take | The tab stays live | You cut, caption and re-export |
What belongs in the cut?
- One sentence on the problem before the first click.
- The happy path. Drop the mis-clicks.
- A still of the final screen if you want a pause for comments.
