Not completely automated but this one year old workflow is as good as we have for now.

IIRC Simple AddOn can only read the zone once if it changes then you have to redo it with the label trick it will auto update

I checked that blog post and just want to point out 2 important things that could be easily missed:

1. The Zones must be selected in the Floor Plan Viewpoint before going into the Section/Elevation Viewpoint. This will enable the "Related Zone Name/Number" Autotext to return valid values.
2. The Label must be placed with the "Associative" Geometry Method.
