Figma showcases an effective use of an announcement modal to introduce its new feature, Playground. With a bold, colorful banner, the modal grabs the user’s attention immediately, ensuring the message doesn’t get overlooked. The visual design not only makes the announcement more engaging but also leverages contrasting color schemes to make it stand out on the screen.
What makes this modal particularly successful is its well-structured copy. Figma uses text hierarchy and formatting techniques—such as bolding feature names—to help users quickly scan and understand the content. The modal also includes brief explanations and tips for each feature, allowing users to grasp their purpose without needing to dive into a full demo. It’s a smart, user-centered approach that balances clarity, design, and functionality.
