May 30, 2023 May 30, 2023

Hi! I'm in an online course to learn to use Adobe XD, but I haven't been able to find where to download it... It doesn't seem to be in any adobe link nor listed in the creative cloud apps. Can someone help me please? (I'm in Canada)

Hi @Leslie2628726265vb ,

 

Adobe XD is no longer available for purchase as a single application but will continue to be supported for existing users. XD will continue to be available as part of our Adobe Creative Cloud All Apps subscription. We will continue to support existing Adobe XD customers.

 

Thanks

Due to the merger, both Adobe and Figma can't say much. Here is my take: Adobe has stopped almost all effort on XD, and is actively discouraging new users. Thus, migrating to Figma or other tool would be the wisest option. If the merger occurs (I am not holding my breath), then Figma will be the design tool of choice within the Creative Cloud offerings. If the merger does not happen, Figma continues to maintain is place as a popular solution among designers.

I have access to all apps and I don't see XD as an option to install.

Why would you keep training on a product that is no longer going to be developed on?

For the sake of humanity and those you may train, simply adopt Figma.

I have just made a video all about how I need to approach giving up XD and shifting over to Figma, I struggled with the switch over and I hope I have some great chat points in the video for the XD community and how we need to face the facts.

https://youtu.be/oF-6uB_x1Wo I hope its a help for you guys.

Well, I signed up for Adobe MAX again this year and went to filter course offerings by area of interest... this year UX is not an option. Then I went to filter by software title and XD is not an option (nor is Figma). There are also so few UX/UI courses this year in general. Last year there was a smorgasbord of them. Adobe is pretty much skipping this topic at MAX this year, sadly.

The show is going to 75% about using AI tools in their product line anyway....  You would be off watching the session from the recent Figma conference and less likely to contract Covid 😉

It is still a big mystery. It all hinges on the success or failure of the Figma purchase. It has been almost a year (Sept 22, 2022) was the annoucement and no new information on it. Both the US and EU are looking into the deal. There is not a lot either side can legally say, so we are making best guesses as to what is next. Regardless, the smartest thing to do is to shift to Figma. Either it will be an Adobe owned solution or remain indepenent, but it will be the primary tool of choice for many designers.

I have been transitioning to Figma from having used XD since it's public beta (all Mac). The transition has been exceedingly frustrating. Here are a few suggestions, from my experience:

  1. Use the desktop app, not the browser.
  2. If you need to customize shortcuts, use Keyboard Maestro (so they work) and duplicate them in Mac OS’s built-in keyborad custom shortcuts [Sys Prefs > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts] so they show up in Figma.
  3. If you want to learn pro-tips, Kezz is, IMAO, the best. They are a little dated, but still the best. They have 13 of them and each is around 3 minutes long. Here’s the first one.
  4. Be patient with yourself. Figma works much differently from XD — it’s more similar to Sketch. I have used many tools for many years but this transition has been the most difficult for me — and I loved XD. After many months, I am finally coming around to it and almost enjoying it.
  5. One enormous advantage of Figma: If you file a support ticket (which is a little tricky: click ? in the lower right corner > Contact Support > I type "help" in the field that appears > Click the Contact Us button that appears > select Product Question) you actually get an email from a human! And you can have an email dialog with them! They have been very helpful to me.

One of my concerns is on pricing. I wonder if Adobe will let us purchase the Creative Suite without an additional purchase of Figma. I don't want to do without the Creative Suite.

While I've started creating new UX/UI designs in Figma, all other projects are in XD. How can we convert our old XD files to Figma so as to make updates and changes without recreating from scratch?
