Hi Martin. To debug a flow we're using execute flow from the menu. However if I have multiple triggers and conditions to check which trigger fired,executing a flow manually doesn't work. I have to create another condition like trigger=Manual to continue with flow execution and link to where I want the flow to go. Is it possible to add a feature to execute flow from a certain condition onwards to the end of the flow? It would greatly simplify flow debugging.

+1 to this. I think the best way would be to add an action when selecting or maybe long-pressing a block (any block, not just a condition) to start executing the flow from that point. Such a feature would save me a lot of time and make troubleshooting as well as just figuring out what works and what doesn't so much easier.

I also create an expression trigger == "Manual" and connect it to bypass the expression I put in multiple parallel expression.

A long press on an element and then have icon to denote "start execution" from current element until the end, would be great.

Yeah, I do that, too, but there are a couple problems. First, I sometimes use a manual trigger for other stuff, not to mention the "hassle" of having to create the trigger for testing. More importantly, I often want to test something a fair distance away from the start, and you can't tap and drag the plus icon to the edge of the screen and scroll the screen to it, so you have to drag the start (often after disconnecting it from the other block(s) it's connected to, to prevent other parts of the flow from running during the test) to the edge of the screen, then pan the screen, then drag it some more, then pan the screen again, and so on, to get to the part you want to test, connect it, test, then disconnect and repeat the process to put the start back. This is why a long-press action would really be helpful.

Selecting a block has 4 actions, one on each side. How about adding another icon that does 'start flow from here'. This would make the process alot faster.
