RTLAuto helps Figma teams adapt product interfaces between LTR and RTL without rebuilding every screen by hand. It mirrors layouts, handles BiDi text, protects semantic icons and complex artwork, creates direction-aware component variants, and can translate selected text with Google, Gemini, or OpenAI. Built for teams shipping multilingual products across both left-to-right and right-to-left experiences.

Hi Product Hunt! 👋

I'm Muhammad, the creator of RTLAuto.

We built RTLAuto to give Figma teams a repeatable LTR ↔ RTL workflow for production design systems.

Supporting both directions often means manually rebuilding layouts, fixing components, checking icons, and cleaning up mixed-language interfaces screen by screen. It's time-consuming and difficult to keep consistent as products grow.

RTLAuto focuses on production-ready workflows: mirroring layouts, handling BiDi text, protecting semantic icons and complex artwork, creating direction-aware component variants, and optionally translating selected text.

It's built for teams shipping multilingual products, regional interfaces, and enterprise design systems without rebuilding every screen by hand.

Thanks for checking it out! I'd love to hear your feedback and answer any questions throughout the launch. 🚀

Comment highlights

the icon-preservation and layout mirroring answers are the obvious hard part, but the sneakier gotcha in real RTL work is embedded LTR content inside RTL text - phone numbers, dates, prices, English brand names sitting inside an Arabic or Hebrew sentence. those are supposed to stay LTR even though everything around them flips. does RTLAuto detect and protect those runs automatically, or is that still something a designer has to manually flag after the mirror pass?

RTLAuto is now live! 🚀

We built RTLAuto to help Figma teams adapt production interfaces between LTR ↔ RTL without rebuilding every screen manually.

It mirrors layouts, handles BiDi text, protects semantic icons and complex artwork, creates direction-aware component variants, and optionally translates selected text.

We've already received valuable feedback from early testers working on real design systems, dashboards, and mixed-content interfaces, and we're excited to keep improving RTLAuto based on community feedback.

If you work with multilingual products or design systems, we'd love to hear your thoughts. Feel free to ask questions, share feedback, or let us know what you'd like to see next I'll be here throughout the launch.

Thanks for checking out RTLAuto! ❤️

Does it keep things in sync if I update the original LTR frame afterwards, or is it more of a one-time conversion?

The bidirectional handling for semantic icons is such a thoughtful touch, so many tools miss that and end up flipping arrows the wrong way. Glad someone finally built this with real multilingual teams in mind.

finally a plugin that flips my Figma files to arabic without mangling the icons we spent weeks aligning. the bidirectional text handling actually understood our mixed content out of the box

finally something that handles my semantic icons without breaking them, ran a couple screens through it and the mirroring actually feels right instead of the usual flip-and-pray result.

Tried it on a Figma file with mixed text and icons and the mirror worked without breaking the directional arrows. Saving it as direction-aware variants is genuinely useful, would have saved my team hours last sprint.

The direction-aware component variants saved me from rebuilding an entire dashboard today. BiDi text handling on real product copy was smoother than the manual flips I have been doing.
