Anyone using Gallery from Google for handoff?

    Ever since Sketch came out with their own interactive prototyping, we don't use InVision anymore so I'm curious as to why people still use InVision? You don't have to take the extra steps to transfer it to InVision and even the Craft Plugin is still more steps than Sketch's own interactive prototyping. Haven't looked backed ever since.

    We also use Zeplin and haven't found much reason to switch. I'm curious what offerings you want Zeplin to have? Because to me it seems that the only difference between Zeplin and Gallery is that Gallery doesn't require you make an account. I also found that the Zeplin team is very responsive to product feedback and requests, I've made a request before and they implemented it a few months later. So maybe other people have the same requests as you, you never know unless you ask.

      We switched from Zeplin to Invision, because it offers so much more for basically the same price:

      In my opinion the most important feature, inspect mode, is lacking in both applications. So why not choose the platform, that offers more. Although I have to say, that we hardly use anything else besides the inspect mode. So if Zeplin's inspect mode would become far superior I'd consider switching again.

      Avocode's inspect feature seems to be the best, however I can't justify its pricing.

        I haven't dabbled much with Invision's inspect mode, the last time I did there was a lot of lag but that also could be due to the size of my Sketch files. My team doesn't use inspect mode to it's fullest potential, our main use cases for using Zeplin are having one place to store and view files with the ability to make comments and have version control. Strangely enough, I found out about Avocode through one of my friends but that led me down the rabbit hole to explore similar products and ultimately went with Zeplin. From what I've seen and read in the design community, Zeplin seems to be more widely used than Avocode.

      We use inVision so that we can actually share the prototype with the client via a sharable link. Sketch native prototyping doesn't support this yet as of last time I checked.

        Sketch native prototyping supports a shareable link now. It uploads your creation to the Sketch Cloud and whoever views the link will see it in the browser
