Figma Sites accessibility settings hidden by default and inconsistent with design file

8/10 High

Accessibility settings in Figma Sites are hidden by default and must be manually added to each layer. Additionally, there's no high-level view of applied accessibility tags—users must click into every layer individually to check. Component behavior, variables, and states differ between Figma Design and Sites.

Query: “What are the most common pain points with Figma for developers in 2025?”4/9/2026

Accessibility settings are hidden by default - you have to manually add them to each layer. Why can't we make these settings already visible? No high-level view of applied tags - you have to click into every single layer to check.
