Clients should unlearn using Photoshop for web or UI design šŸ™‚ It's bad for that in all the ways, with terrible performance, etc. You should communicate this to them and be a bit more firm about it. We're the professionals, we know what tools are best to use. They also can't argue you're forcing them to pay for a subscription or buy anything, since prototypes / specs can be viewed by anyone for free and developers can also export assets easily from those, without the need to "slice" designs in Photoshop like years ago šŸ™‚

 

The industry is moving into that more specialized direction, so there's intentional one-way compatibility between the outdated (for UI design) Photoshop method and the new UX/UI design software from recent years.

 

If it's an absolute must, you can copy everything to Illustrator, and then copy from Illustrator and paste in Photoshop as layers / smart objects / shape layers, with less than ideal results, ofcourse šŸ™‚ If you want everything to be perfect, you will find yourself rebuilding or tweaking 80% of the elements, because very few things in Photoshop work the same way in Xd.
