Overview of the Figma plugin for LingoHub

The LingoHub Figma plugin allows design, product, and localization teams to streamline UI localization by connecting Figma Design files directly to LingoHub. The plugin extracts text frames for translation, automatically generates localized design pages inside your Figma file, and uploads context screenshots to LingoHub.

Plan availability & account requirements

  • Supported plans: The Figma plugin is available on LingoHub Pro plans and above and for active 14-day free trial accounts.

  • Figma account: Requires a valid Figma account with access to the target workspace and design files.
