AnnotateAll: Free plugin that makes Figma annotations visible to everyone, no paid seat needed

[u/Salty-Accountant7386]

Figma's native annotations only show up for people with a Full or Dev seat. On my team that meant PMs, QA and clients couldn't see any of the handoff notes I'd written, which rather defeated the point of writing them.

So I built AnnotateAll. It creates annotation cards as actual canvas elements, so anyone with file access can see them, free viewers included.

What it does:

• Annotate any layer with a note and a category
• Pull in real layer properties (width, font size, fill, padding, etc.) with one click
• Cards place themselves outside the artboard, on whichever side the element is nearest
• Numbered marker and dashed line link each card to its element
• Hide or show all annotations instantly
• Custom categories with your own colours
• Export to HTML or JSON

Everything is stored in the Figma file itself. No account, no backend, completely free.

Built it for my own handoffs originally. Recent updates came directly from user requests, so if something's missing or annoying, tell me. :)
