Responsive images are not just smaller versions of the same export. Different breakpoints can need different crops, aspect ratios, focal points, and compression settings.
For teams working on optimized image export from Figma, the useful question is not just “which tool exports this?” It is “what has to be true before this asset, file, or review flow is safe to ship?” TinyImage is useful because it helps turn Figma work into compressed image, SVG, PDF, GIF, MP4, WebP, and AVIF exports, but the quality still comes from a clear workflow.
What to Check
- Identify which images need separate desktop, tablet, and mobile crops.
- Document focal points so important subjects are not cropped out on narrow screens.
- Export only the dimensions developers need, with sensible 1x and 2x decisions.
- Choose formats per image type rather than applying one format to everything.
- Name variants clearly by breakpoint, crop, and usage context.
Common Mistakes
- Scaling a desktop hero down to mobile can hide the subject or make text unreadable.
- Supplying too many variants creates implementation confusion.
- Supplying one huge image forces the browser or developer to do avoidable cleanup.
A Practical Workflow
TinyImage helps designers export optimized responsive variants from Figma, while the handoff notes tell developers which asset belongs where.
Start by preparing the Figma source file with real content, clear naming, and the constraints that matter for production. Then run a focused review against the checklist above before exporting or sharing. That keeps the work from turning into a last-minute cleanup job.
When This Matters Most
This matters most when the work is repeated, client-facing, compliance-sensitive, performance-sensitive, or likely to be reused by another team. One-off manual fixes can survive on memory. Repeatable production work needs a documented process.
Next Step
Use this checklist alongside the relevant TinyImage tutorial or product workflow, then review TinyImage when you are ready to make this process faster inside Figma.
