Add a UI for approving or requesting changes to a branch

It would be nice if there was a UI that allowed a designer to explicitly “approve” a branch. Something similar to how you do it in Abstract: Introducing Review Requests and Comment History

Currently it is possible for designers to approve or request changes by writing a comment somewhere in the Figma file, but I guess this is a bit more difficult to keep track (i.e. requires sifting through a bunch of comments to figure out who has approved).

Thanks for the good idea! We agree, and it’s already on our roadmap!

Hi @John_Fuetsch . Do you know if this user interface for approvals has been added to Figma in the last months?

I agree, having some sort of version tracking where you could approve/reject changes and roll back ones you don’t approve would be super helpful.

Yes we added reviewers and approval in July 2021. Here’s some documentation on how it works! https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360063144053-Create-branches-and-merge-changes#review-approve
