Zeplin recently shipped Flows!
Flows are a fast/effortless way to create and outline user flows and journeys. Designers can use flows to connect screens in seconds and map complete user journeys, showing not just the happy path but all possible paths and behaviors.
All you need to do is add screens you want in a flow, then add a connector which will snap into place to connect screens or design elements. You even add a label to clarify edge cases or error paths.
As you publish new versions of designs, your flows and connectors will get updated automatically as screens change.

Main Topic:
This week, we talk about methods to scale design critiques with a growing team.
Hey friends! My UX team has grown immensely in past year, to 30+ members. We have weekly 1-hour design crits where anyone can share work & receive feedback. This has been helpful in leveling up presentation and feedback-giving skills, as well as unblocking team members and maintaining alignment.
This has become challenging at scale though. Any tips to make crits more useful for larger teams, or are we destined to break apart?

- Marshall shared Play for iPad — native mobile prototyping, now on the big screen. It's good!
