In the developer's words

Design layouts more efficiently by pulling text strings, images, and icons from one palette. Content Reel lets you create custom content and share it with other Figma users. Collaboration has never been easier!

Content:

Browse or search content to find published collections of text strings, images, and icons. Having trouble finding what you need from existing content? You can create your own text and image content by using Add.

Add:

Create text categories and populate them with your own text strings. You can also upload up to 20 PNGs or JPEGs to create image content. As a creator, you may choose to share it publicly or keep it private. When you create content, it is automatically pinned to Home Screen for quick access (signed-in users only).

Customize Your Home screen:

Optimize your workflow by pinning the content that you use most to your home screen. Apply 1-click access to any content type with the switch of a toggle (signed-in users only). Drag and drop items on your home screen to suit your preferences.

How to use Content Reel:

Find content:

Access saved content from your Home Screen or navigate through the tabs to search or browse content. Pin it for ease of access to your Home screen.

Applying text content:

Select one or more text layers in your design to apply strings individually or apply them all. Use the original order provided or choose an order from the drop-down menu.

Applying image content:

Select one or more image layers or frames in your design, then apply the images individually or apply them all in random order.

Applying icon content:

Browse the collection or use the search bar to find an icon. Click on the icon or drag and drop it into your design. Change the format between glyph or SVG by clicking on the settings menu. You can also adjust the icon size to scale as needed. When using glyphs make sure the selected font is downloaded and installed in Figma.

Creating text and image content: Navigate to the Add tab, click Add, and select content type. Provide a Title that is relevant to your content. Set your content to Public or Private. See the terms and conditions regarding usage and rights.
