1. Describe the problem:
I’m a freelance designer and work a lot with Figma. I usually create designs for various SaaS products. My biggest headache is adapting designs for tablet and mobile devices. I really enjoy working on the desktop version and put my soul into it, but when I need to adjust the layout for tablet or smartphone, it turns into boring routine that takes at least a few hours. For large projects, it’s many hours and a lot of frustration.
I’ve tried ready‑made solutions – Figma plugins like Make It Responsive, Responify, and others. But they work poorly:
In the end, I still do all the responsive work manually. This takes time that I could be spending on creativity or new clients.
I’ve tried ready‑made solutions – Figma plugins like Make It Responsive, Responify, and others. But they work poorly:
- either the auto‑layout breaks and elements fall apart
- or they require so much manual setup that it’s easier to do everything from scratch
- or the result is so low‑quality that I have to redo it
In the end, I still do all the responsive work manually. This takes time that I could be spending on creativity or new clients.
2. How often does the problem occur?
This has been going on for 5–6 years, and every year it gets harder and more annoying to do responsive design. For every project that requires more than just desktop. On average, several times a month. It’s a constant, recurring issue.
3. What attempts have you made to solve the problem?
- Make It Responsive plugin – unpredictable results, often breaks.
- Responify – requires too much manual setup before generation, zero time savings.
- Other Figma plugins – either work only for very simple layouts, or are buggy.
- I also tried auto‑responsiveness in website builders – doesn’t work for me because I work in Figma and deliver ready‑made layouts to developers.
No tool gives a high‑quality, production‑ready responsive layout without a ton of extra hassle.
4. How much are you willing to pay for the solution?
I'm ready to buy a package of 30–40 successfully generated responsive screens (tablet and mobile) for €20–30, provided the service is truly effective and saves me hours.
I usually have several projects per month, so I would likely need several packages each month.
I don’t need a subscription with a hundred extra features – I just need a simple pay‑per‑result model.
One more wish: if the solution could also create or update a design system specifically for tablet and mobile, that would be great.
