The InVision vs Figma comparison tells the story of a design tool category shift. InVision was the dominant prototyping platform through 2016–2020, helping teams create clickable mockups before Figma's browser-based collaboration changed the industry. Today, Figma has become the standard for UI/UX design, while InVision has pivoted its focus to InVision App (a product management and design handoff tool) after discontinuing its core prototyping and whiteboard products in 2024.

If you're evaluating these tools for UI design and prototyping in 2026, Figma is the clear choice for most teams. InVision's remaining product (InVision App) serves a different use case — project management for design teams — rather than competing directly with Figma's design canvas.

Our Verdict

For 2026, this comparison is largely settled: if you need a design and prototyping tool, choose Figma. The tool has become the industry standard with good reason — it offers real-time collaboration, a rich plugin ecosystem, and a complete design-to-handoff workflow in the browser without any installation. InVision's original value proposition (cloud prototyping) was absorbed by Figma years ago.

InVision App still has a niche as a design project management layer — useful for organizations that want to keep stakeholders in a separate tool from the design canvas itself. But for most teams, Figma's built-in commenting, presentation mode, and stakeholder sharing features cover this without needing a separate InVision subscription.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is InVision still available?

InVision App (for design project management and stakeholder feedback) remains active. However, InVision Studio (vector design), Freehand (whiteboard), and the original prototyping tool were all discontinued in 2024. If you're looking for a Sketch or Figma alternative, InVision is no longer the answer.

02 What replaced InVision for prototyping?

Figma is the primary replacement for InVision's prototyping capabilities. Adobe XD (now discontinued), Framer, and Axure are alternatives depending on your use case. Most teams migrated to Figma between 2020–2024.

03 Can I import InVision projects into Figma?

Figma doesn't have a native InVision importer. You can export InVision screens as PNG/PDF and reimport them, but prototyping logic and interactions require manual recreation in Figma.

04 Is Figma free to use?

Figma's Starter plan is free and includes 3 Figma design files, 3 FigJam boards, and unlimited collaborators in view/comment mode. For unlimited files, you need Figma Professional at $16/user/month (or $12 billed annually).
