FigpeaView a Figma file without the cloud
Figma reaches for its servers to open a document. Figpea reads the .fig file sitting on your disk, on your own machine — no sign-in, no sync, and nothing uploaded. If you also need the app itself to open with no connection at all, that is Offline Access, a Pro feature.
Everything you need to view Figma files
No cloud round-trip
The .fig on your disk is read directly — no document server to reach, no sync to wait for.
No sign-in to read a file
Opening and browsing a local .fig file needs no account and no seat.
Read on your device
Parsing happens in your browser; the file is never uploaded.
Offline Access (Pro)
Caches the app itself so the editor opens with no connection at all — a Pro feature.
Frequently asked questions
How do I read a .fig file without depending on the cloud?
Open the file in Figpea. The .fig is parsed by code running in your browser, on your own device — there is no round-trip to a design server to fetch the document, and no sign-in step.
Why does Figma need a connection when Figpea doesn't?
A Figma cloud document lives on Figma's servers, so opening it means authenticating and syncing. Figpea works from the local .fig file instead and reads its structure directly, which is why no account and no server call are involved.
Can I use Figpea with no internet connection at all?
Yes, with Offline Access — a Pro feature. It caches the application itself so the editor opens with no connection. Without it, you still need to load the page once, and reading your file remains local either way.
Which browsers can install Figpea as an app?
Chrome, Edge, and other Chromium browsers offer an install icon in the address bar; Safari on macOS uses File then Add to Dock, and on iOS or iPadOS, Share then Add to Home Screen. Firefox on desktop cannot install a web app.
Is my design file uploaded when I open it?
No. The file is read on your device and never leaves it, whether or not you have Offline Access.
