Apple promises to release even more resources in the coming weeks and months as the macOS Sonoma, watchOS 10, tvOS 17, and visionOS libraries are added. This is great news for designers as they no longer need to recreate Apple assets in Figma themselves.

Figma also showed concern for designers using Apple devices recently by releasing the FigJam software for iPadOS. In addition, the company is actively working on a more powerful version of its primary iPad app.
