Frequently Asked Questions

Is Figra free?

Yes, Figra is completely free with a one-time registration.

Does it work on Mac?

Yes! Excel Online provides full functionality on Mac. The Mac Excel desktop app has some limitations due to Mac OS restriction: saving PNG with embedded metadata and downloading .R files directly to your folder don't work, but you can copy R code to clipboard instead.

Do I need to install R?

No, Figra uses WebR technology - R runs directly in your browser with no installation required.

What file formats can I export?

PNG with embedded metadata (data and settings), allowing you to regenerate figures later.

What statistical tests are supported?

t-test, Wilcoxon test, ANOVA, and Kruskal-Wallis. Post-hoc tests include Tukey HSD, Dunnett, Steel, and Dunn, with Bonferroni and Holm correction options.
