How to Turn a Figma Design Into an Interactive Prototype with Figma Make!

Learn how to turn an existing Figma design into an interactive prototype with Figma Make—without manually connecting every screen.

In this practical UX workflow, I take a healthcare appointment-booking design from polished screens to a functional, testable prototype. I compare different prototyping paths, show how to send selected designs into Figma Make, and explain how to prompt for realistic interactions, tasks, and edge cases.

You’ll learn how to:

- Prepare your Figma designs before prototyping
- Pressure-test UX copy and localization
- Identify important edge cases and error states
- Compare traditional Figma prototyping with AI-assisted options
- Send existing screens from Figma Design to Figma Make
- Write a stronger prompt for a usability-testing prototype
- Test a realistic, interactive booking flow
- Edit elements and apply changes inside Figma Make
- Copy updated designs back into Figma Design
