    @SlackHQ you guys have a gnarly bug and flow issue on iPad that makes the catchup feature (my fav ever) almost unusable. When I forward a message the app often crashes. If it doesn’t it moves me to the new chat (where I forwarded) but drops all the navigation so there’s no ability to get anywhere. I need to force quit and then restart slack to be able to navigate anywhere. Please fix! Can’t live without the catch up feature!

    Pretty please @SlackHQ stop making me find the channel again when I reopen the mobile app. I love you but it's terrible UX to have to find the channel everytime close my phone.

    EVERY @ZoomInfo customer can connect @claudeai and ZoomInfo together right now- but how about in @SlackHQ ? With Claude? Here’s how to build a targeted prospect list and account plan without leaving Slack. (In <5 minutes) Step 1: Ask Claude directly inside Slack to build you a list I asked for… “25 CROs and VPs of Sales based in Boston, at software companies between 500–1k employees, with $100M+ in funding. Name, title, email, mobile, total funding.” It taps straight into your Zoominfo database and all comes back right there in the channel. It even flags who is on your do not call list. Step 2: Pick an account. Ask Claude to prep you for the call, directly in Slack. It uses Zoominfo to pull every conversation you've had with them - calls, emails, pain points they've raised, products they use. It comes back with the leadership you NEED to know, what's happening at the account right now and specific angles that could help you win. This works inside Claude too when you connect it up to our MCP server - you can even ask it to build you a custom interface to sort, edit, and work the data however you want. Zoominfo is going to show up EVERYWHERE. Slack, Claude, wherever you're doing GTM work, your data should follow you there.

    @SlackHQ The amount of times on mac where I come to a computer and you just have the mic on is too high, even when not on a call... fix your app

    @SlackHQ If it's based on Salesforce's support AI, then we're off. It's terrible and ends up taking twice as long to do what we want.

    @resulvol @RealFeatBit @SlackHQ Sure guys anyone who need help can text be and they’ll restore your access for 30 days so you can still work on the account while the migrate

    @lennysan @SlackHQ @aunder The strobe light thing is so real. The person presenting has been inside the problem for weeks. The reviewer walks in cold. And it's not really a flaw in the exec ..... it's just structural. That gap exists at every level in every review setting. The actual skill is learning to rebuild context for the reviewer quickly, instead of assuming they're already there with you.

    Have spent 40 mins trying to change my old email to a new one on @SlackHQ to join a new shared channel. For every action @SlackHQ makes me login with 2-factor authentication & then never maintains state in the same browser window. And then I get locked out for too many logins!!!

    @mike_hasarms @SlackHQ Perhaps not but I’m in a few so they should force them to move elsewhere or do something about the spam. It’s a problem

    @kitayoshi_son @SlackHQ We've sent 2 emails so far nothing, they arent going to respond to you because this is a MASS event, you arent alone, we didnt even get the email people talk about and some others say that as well, we just got wiped. I don't think they will help you.

    @aouabch Most teams don’t fail to scale because of bad tools. They fail because every new tool hides the same old inefficiency. IMO @clickup and @SlackHQ aren’t the problem. It’s the illusion that organisation = progress.

    @SlackHQ Please please fix it. How did this go out? It's not like it's even on random Windows laptop. It's a new Mac ! 90% of your engineers and testers probably use the same machine.

    Anyone using clawdbot? Seeing loads of videos on how its so easy to use - 8 hrs in & still can't get @xai to run. Grok has give me an amended .json file which fails. Tried to run Clawdbot in @SlackHQ (too complicated, gave up) switched to @discord now working & getting the following error - any help would be really appreciated: Agent failed before reply: No API key found for provider "xai". Auth store: C:\Users\NAME.clawdbot\agents\main\agent\auth-profiles.json (agentDir: C:\Users\NAME.clawdbot\agents\main\agent). Configure auth for this agent (clawdbot agents add <id>) or copy auth-profiles.json from the main agentDir. Logs: clawdbot logs --follow

    @SlackHQ @github When I click "Connect GitHub account" from within Slack, the window that opens only tells me an error: "Error: The time window to connect your GitHub account has expired. Please return to Slack to re-start the process of connecting your GitHub account."

    @AmenaiSabuwala @SlackHQ This must be ragebait, right? You redesigned a Splash Screen into a login screen, those are separate things.

    @SlackHQ your headphone icon on huddles is a huge annoyance and an invasion of privacy for everyone. Users can turn it off but there should be the ability to shut this down for the whole workspace. We really don't need to know who is talking with whom at any one time.

    I am never going to use @SlackHQ again unless they fix the issue on the iPhone app where it doesn’t auto scroll to the latest message in a thread. You have to scroll down for 2 mins to get to the latest message. Not working for me on OpenClaw. Like if you know what I mean.

    Dear @SlackHQ and @beehiiv Making ctrl+k NOT be the hyperlink shortcut is deliberate pain inflicated on GDocs and Gsuite users. Please fix.

  • ZevZoldan
    Zev Zoldan (@ZevZoldan) reported

    Hot take for the AI founders knocking @SlackHQ: Slack doesn’t have a “communication problem.” Teams do. Most “ignored messages” aren’t about noise, attention spans, or channel chaos. It’s because Slack messages have zero structure. No timing. No follow-through. No visibility. Just text thrown into the void and a prayer. The second you add structure — forms, confirmations, simple logic — everything changes. People actually respond. Leaders stop guessing. Teams stop resending the same message 12 times. Slack doesn’t need fewer messages. It needs smarter ones. That’s what we’re building with @TryThreadly.

    It sucks that @SlackHQ doesn’t support Apple Shortcuts. I’m not sure that that approach will slow down the development of personalized bots outside of Salesforce control.

    @samhenrigold So good. I wish this was accounted for when opening Spotlight from the Home Screen so they were distinct, that’s the only reason I don’t unless I have two sets (which do account for each other). Also lol @ @SlackHQ having an old Siri Shortcut donation whose image is broken

    @SlackHQ Been trying to migrate to Slack Enterprise Grid since January 28, only get non-descriptive errors and can't get anyone from your team on a Zoom for 15 mins to do the config. No help from support apart from reiterating the same URLs for SAML. What can you do to help?

    Hi @SlackHQ, I’ve been unable to launch or load the iOS app for the past few hours. I have already tried logging out and back in, as well as a full uninstall and reinstall, but the issue persists. This is significantly impacting my work could you please look into this?
