Sluggish and battery hog at times

I have no complaints about the app itself, but about ho well its been optimised. It often takes too much time to load and also chews throught battery pretty quick

A Frustrated Macuser ,

Glitchy and consumes a lot of battery

Since last update, I have noticed that the app has become very glitchy. Often when I receive a message, I don't get any notification even though all notification permissions are ON. I can only see the app icon bounce in the dock.

Also, if I have a lengthy huddle with anyone, with screen sharing, my mac shows a warning that my screen is being observed even long after the huddle has ended.

And the app has started consuming a lot more battery power now, compared to earlier days. Really gets frustrating to use it sometimes.

Developer Response ,

Sorry for the trouble. We'd be interested in hearing more about this issue. When you have a moment, please write in to feedback@slack.com with additional details and we'll be happy to help.
