Multiple pages (separate sets of artboards)
Sometimes, for 1 design project we need to make several options and to do so currently we need to create new files every time and name them with versions. So I think it would be really cool if we can create multiple designs within the same file and then be able to have multiple prototype links also based on different options, that would organize stuff and make it much easier.
Thanks!

When is this coming? I am tired of creating copies of files just because i dont want to publish drafts and ideations. Please include this ASAP.
OR... at least for now make selectable art-boards to publish. -

This is a must needed feature!
I hear Figma calling... -

Totally need this feature. The single page plus finite canvas make working on large projects / projects with lots of screens exceptionally tedious. Add to this a separate page for MASTER components and the experience would be far far less frustrating. Especially given that master components look identical to instances until you click on them. That extra click is exceptionally annoying when you're dealing with a lot of elements. I know we can create multiple files, say, one for master components, and others for each major section of the flow, but that means we now have to juggle multiple files, which is an unnecessary headache in my opinion.

I don't understand why there is no response to this by the Adobe team. I feel like this is a 'MUST' feature.

Still not in the update...
I am still on Figma. -

Why not use a usual version control system like git or subversion for this purpose? With that you can make as many parallel versions as you like, and go back and forth in version history as well.

I'm thinking to move to Figma, I need this feature, please! I have more than 10 files, its boring to find and share with devs.

just had to move from Figma to XD because of company policy, cant believe this doesnt exist is like going back 10 years! Its going to be a pain to maintain various stages of project in one canvas.

This is a huge pain point and has caused my team to discuss abandoning for a different prototyping tool. I've been using XD for over a year and have enjoyed using, but every time there's a feature release I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for this feature, and it's such a let down to see that this is not a higher priority.
And infinite canvas! Why why why is there not an infinite canvas!!

How can that be that other feature requests like animation are upvoted thousand of times and Multiple Pages, which is a basic feature, is not prioritized? I wonder how other designers work around that issue...

when adobe chose to ignore a basic feature for years and even if it is also in feature requests for years

yes please implement this already! Create a new XD and name it, save it in the right folder just to separate drafts from finals? Like cmon already Adobe, how is this workflow efficient?

This is a pretty big omission from Adobe. One of the main reasons I am considering switching to Figma as it's becoming so time consuming organising different variants, moodboard, wireframes etc in different files which is made worse when XD has no tabs functionality.

It's kind of impossible to organize a big project at the moment. This feature would help so much and would save time and effort. I would create pages for the various features or sub-projects in a project, have one for components, one for a styleguide, and if I could then also share this pages with the developer that would be awesome.
I'm waiting for this feature since the beginning and I really like how Adobe XD has developed - but I can imagine that it's one of the features why Designer use other applications - or think about switching.
Are there plans to implement this feature request in the future?

Could we get a response from adobe on whether or not this feature is planned or a version of this feature?

It has been almost four years now and this is still a missing feature. It can be found in Sketch, which is why I favor it instead of XD when ever I can work solely on my Mac for a project. It should be simple to add Layers to which you can create or move Artboards. It makes organizing your project so much simpler and should be rather simple.

I am new to UX design so I am learning both XD and Sketch right now. This (so far) seems like the biggest item that makes Sketch more versatile. I, personally, like to keep files compact and efficient so being able to toggle between versions (pages) within one document seems like a must-have item.

Another vote for multiple pages. Various reasons I'm not making the switch to XD is this, and more flexibility within components for vertical rescaling. Seems XD is set up for very 'perfect' use cases where all content is a fixed height. It's not easy to achieve in Sketch, but its far more flexible than XD at the moment.
