And you guessed it, made in @figma 😜

I can’t think of a creative who wouldn’t want this capability. I’d buy it on Day One.
Also, let the #MagicMouse wirelessly charge already, selling a sexy, overpriced charging mouse pad with it.
Hey @Procreate lemme report an iPadOS17 bug: rotating my canvas on any file causes the app to crash.
