Our latest features and updates

  • Feature image for New activity badges

    Posts in your team’s feed are badged when there are new comments that you haven’t seen yet. This change makes sure you don’t miss any decisions or context in your active conversations.

    In addition, your team’s feed is now ranked: unseen posts, or posts with unseen comments, will always appear first in the feed. When you’ve seen everything, Campsite will show a “You’re all caught up” separator.

    Fixes

    • Fixed certain dialogs being misaligned at the top of the screen on mobile.
    • Fixed the attachment carousel gradient overlapping the navigation sidebar when viewing a post page.
    • Previewing attachments in the composer will open them at full height on mobile.
  • Feature image for Share any file

    Share any file — PDF, Keynote, .psd, code, audio, and anything else — in posts, notes, or comments to get feedback on anything you make.

    Campsite also renders .HEIC files natively to make sharing from iOS easier.

    Combined with version history, Campsite can be your team’s source of truth for progress on files that don’t have built-in comment systems.

  • Feature image for Generate Figma file previews from links

    Campsite automatically generates image previews from your Figma links, making it easier for your team to view and comment on designs without needing to open or log in to Figma.

    Image previews keep your team focused on the specific frames you want feedback on and can be used as a permanent archive for design version history.

    Connect your Campsite and Figma accounts from the account settings page.

    connect Campsite and Figma from the account settings page

    Once connected, paste a link to a Figma file, page, or frame into the post composer, and Campsite will automatically generate an image preview.

    Other improvements

    • Sharing posts to private Slack channels will only display channels where the current user is a member.
    • We added a better loading indicator to attachments in the composer that can be clicked to remove an attachment mid-upload.

  • Feature image for Note attachment comments

    Individual attachments in notes now support annotation comments for high-bandwidth feedback.

    Click on any image attachment in a note to view it full-screen and add annotations. A facepile preview of commenters and the comment count will appear below the attachment preview.

  • Feature image for Create post versions from Figma

    • Start a new draft — upload frames and finish the post in your browser.
    • Quick-share frames to a project — instantly share frames to a project without leaving Figma.

    The plugin has also been rebuilt from the ground up with a smoother authentication flow, upload progress indicators, improved keyboard navigation, and a more cohesive UI.

    Install the Campsite Figma plugin.
