Sections, custom colors, and consistency controls land in FigJam
April’s Figma release keeps the focus on making FigJam boards more structured and personalized. Teams can now organize boards with sections, giving workshops, retros, and regular team sessions clearer visual boundaries. Sticky notes and shapes also gain new formatting depth: users can pick from a wider palette or define fully custom colors, and can enforce proportional, consistent sticky sizing that matches the rest of a file’s content.
Font size customization is part of this push as well, building on the stamps, stickies, and type controls introduced in the February update. That flexibility is meant to help with hierarchy for titles and labels rather than just body text.
File organization gets a workflow upgrade, too. Snapping behavior has been improved for aligning and arranging objects, and locking multiple items at once now requires only a single click.
Cursor chat, stickers, and washi tape return
FigJam’s expression tools are getting more personality. Cursor chat now reacts to certain words, expressions, or heavy exclamation usage, briefly animating your cursor to match the mood of the message.
Washi tape has been brought back as a permanent feature, now with dozens of newly designed tape options. Users can also upload their own patterns instead of relying only on the built-in set.
Four new sticker packs, designed by members of the Figma Community—Jiro Bevis, Diana Marmol, Rooney, and Fanny Luor—are now available in FigJam.
Notion previews and AWS Amplify Studio integrations
Outside FigJam, two notable integrations shipped this month. Figma and FigJam files can now be shared inside Notion pages with link previews, requiring no additional authentication setup beyond the existing connection. This simplifies referencing design work directly in documentation and project notes.
On the development side, AWS Amplify Studio offers a visual interface for converting Figma design components into full-stack React applications—no cloud or AWS expertise required. Developers can find API documentation for building their own integrations as well.
For the complete list of fixes and smaller improvements, check the release notes. More features are expected to be announced at Config, Figma’s annual conference.
