Slow
LordScree
I find the app constantly half a second too slow for my liking. This has the cumulative effect of making me slightly more frustrated over time as I'm using the app.Slowness most noticeable with the delay in (or simply broken) notifications. When I see a red notification icon on the app logo, I find the fastest way to check the new update is to hard close the app and re-open, as this prompts the notifications to actually pick up the new message. It's also not a 100% success rate - sometimes I need to do this several times before the update is picked up. This has frustrated me when I've actually been reading the thread at the time, I know someone has added a comment, but it won't show up on my screen, even with a drag-refresh.Slowness also noticeable when changing channels, navigating to threads and switching workspaces.
Bring back the team who used to write the release updates

Nobody really loves updating apps. It’s a necessary evil, an unfortunate side-effect of a life reliant on tech.In the midst of the mundane list of ‘performance improvements and bug fixes’, one ray of light shone bright with each release: the slack update. I got in the habit of scrolling down the apps to be updated just in case slack was there. The genius mix of detailed information and excellent humour made the process of updating worth it every time. I knew what had been worked on and it brought a smile, and occasionally a chuckle, when I read it.What happened to the updates?Yeah, slack is brilliant and the development team are active in fixing things, obviously. But bring back the hilarious and canny individual or team who used to write the releases. It is possibly the best thing about slack!
A real struggle to use
cdjtsl
Slack used to be good. I won’t say great; it is a difficult job trying to give everyone the communication tools they want with a UX that is simple an quick. But the previous version of the Slack mobile app did a good job. The latest version doesn’t. I’m not averse to change, but having spent some time with the redesigned app the only thing on my mind is how frustrated I am trying to use it. Mostly because, after a few weeks, I have realised what I thought was my failure to grasp all this swiping back and forth you now have to do is actually a bug. The Jump to page or home page whatever it is, keeps disappearing. And I can’t get it back without restarting the app. Now I’ve realised restarting the app fixes it I feel less apprehensive about using it but it’s a serious defect that needs fixing. Other than that, the new interface still has me feeling lost and unsure as to what I’m looking at half the time. It doesn’t feel like an improvement. It was certainly waaaay too much change in one go.
Bug fixes
• Bugs were squashed, performance was improved, work was done and the result was good. Please enjoy Slack responsibly.
