Literal for Figma — Turn screen recordings into screenshots

Featured

Designers and PM's—save hours of work when comparing user flows and taking screen inventories. Instead of manually taking hundreds of screenshots, just take a screen recording. Drag & drop on our plugin, and we convert it into screenshots.

This is *SO* handy! How often do you sit there and painstakingly go through each UI of your app, grabbing screenshots so you can mark them up, add feedback, or restructure flows for quick prototypes? This Figma plugin does all that hard work for you — with a simple screen recording of you blazing through your app! So useful!

👋 Hello! I’m Chi-Kai, co-founder of Literal. We’re super excited to release our Figma plugin and share it with the Product Hunt community. Thanks to @chrismessina for the hunt! 🪄 Mobile designers and PM’s—if you need to compare onboarding flows or take a screen inventory, our plugin can save you hours of tedious work. 🚀 Instead of taking hundreds of manual screenshots, take a screen recording. Our plugin turns screen recordings into screenshots—fast! Literal’s plugin works with both Figma and Figjam. 🙏 Thanks for checking this out. We’d love to get your feedback in the comments below👇🏼

Wow, thanks, really helpful. Gathering references and exploring other app's flows will be so much easier!

@schurf thank you!

I just used this to share out a new app workflow I was hoping to get reviewed by our team, and it was so easy and helpful! We can export a new flow from a simulator or screen recording, and drag it into Figma, and all the screens were perfectly captured and spaced out. Our team is going to love using this, thank you @chikai !!

@chris_scoville Super cool you find it so useful—thanks for letting us know.

Is it something like splitting the video into timeframes?
Chi-Kai Chien
@minimalistphone Not really splitting it, but rather picking out the screens that you'd want to see in a UX teardown.
Raph
@minimalistphone Something like that. We analyze the frames and decide what is important and what is noise. You can see some of our mapping examples we create from a video at https://literal.ai/examples

Is really neat to see all the progress you guys have made from conception to implementation. :) Look forward to seeing next steps!
Chi-Kai Chien
@jferrant thanks! You are too kind!
Ryan McDonough
This is fantastic! I have about 5,000 screenshots in Photos from developing our last app. I would have killed to have this feature. Great work!
Chi-Kai Chien
@ryantmcdonough exactly—sorry we didn’t release it last year for you!
Christoph Fuchsjäger
This is gonna come in handy. While analyzing our competitors we either had thousands of unorganized Screenshots or one huge screen recording that was hard to navigate. Can't wait to try this out 👏 Congrats on the launch Guys!
Elena Dyachkova
This is so useful! No more manual screenshotting / arranging, manually updating user flows after product changes. So easy!
Chi-Kai Chien
@elena_dyachkova Thanks for the feedback!

A colleague used Literal to provide feedback on my prototype and it was so useful. Instead of having to follow along screenshots and comments on different platforms, it was all just right there in a very easy to read format. Highly highly recommend it.

Congrats on the launch! Definitely resonate with the pain point and this will be so useful for me.
Chi-Kai Chien
@prakul glad it will be helpful to you!
Raph
@prakul Thanks for noting. It's crazy how often we look at other apps for inspiration yet don't have a good way to map them out. Hope Literal helps you resolve this pain point! Feedback and feature requests welcome!
Dhaval Shah
This is a powerful feature, app flows would be much simpler. Congrats @chikai and Literal team

This is clutch -- can definitely see this tightening the design (and engineering) iteration loop!
