How to Make the Figma Prototype Responsive

Use this interactive demo to learn how to build a responsive prototype in Figma using navigation interactions.

Quick summary

Making a Figma prototype responsive requires linking navigation components to prototype frames using the Prototype panel and interaction settings. Once configured with an On Click trigger and Navigate To action, clicking the navigation component transitions between frames seamlessly in presentation mode.


Steps

  1. In your Figma design canvas, find and select the component you want to use as the navigation button.
  2. Head to the right-side panel and click the Prototype tab.
  3. Hover your cursor over the selected component to reveal the interaction handle.
  4. Grab the Add icon and drag it to the prototype frame you want to connect.
  5. In the Interaction settings, set the Trigger to On Click and the Action to Navigate To, then customize remaining settings as needed.
  6. Repeat the same steps for your other navigation button to link the remaining frames.
  7. Right-click the completed navigation component and select Copy.
  8. Right-click the first prototype frame and select Paste Here, then paste the component into the other prototype frame as well.
  9. Click the Present button at the top-right corner to preview and verify the output.
  10. Click the navigation component in presentation mode to confirm your Figma design responds correctly based on your prototype inputs.

📌 Why this matters

Making a Figma prototype responsive is a critical skill for UX designers who need to simulate real navigation flows before handing off designs to developers. By linking navigation components to prototype frames with On Click triggers and Navigate To actions, teams can validate user journeys directly inside Figma without writing a single line of code. Responsive Figma prototypes reduce feedback cycles, align stakeholders around interactive design previews, and catch usability issues early in the product design process. This approach ensures that every prototype accurately reflects intended user interactions across multiple screens.
