The brief
Figma Motion now lets designers watch a preset animation style play in the style list and on the canvas before applying it. That makes the selection step more visual: the designer can compare how a style behaves on the actual design, instead of choosing from a name alone. The release also adds a preview of a Lottie file before export, so the resulting animation can be checked before it leaves the editor.
The new spring controls expose mass, stiffness, and damping for iOS and Android motion. Figma updates the duration to match those physical settings, and a spring can be saved in a design system for reuse. These changes make motion parameters easier to compare and hand off across a team. The release note links to Figma's help material for the complete workflow and platform-specific behavior.
