Bug fixes • We’ve tuned the engine and given the interior a thorough clean. Everything is now running smoothly again.

Bug fixes • Apple VoiceOver was not able to select buttons anywhere in Slack outside of threads. Like your favorite cardigan, buttons and threads will, at times, be in need of repair. Here's a cozy thought: This bug has been all sewn up and tied off. • We dropped the ball on dropdown arrows, which were hovering awkwardly in the center of the screen instead of sitting politely on the side. The next time you need to expand a menu, you'll find the tappable button right where you expect it to be. • Dropdown menus were also not selecting the default value if you just pressed "Submit" without choosing anything. Perhaps it's a good reminder to always be intentional in our individual choices? Eh, probably just a bug. Our bad.

Bug fixes • We tidied the shelves, cleaned the windows and ran a white-gloved finger over every flat surface. Just a little routine maintenance to ensure that everything is shipshape. Full steam ahead!

Bug fixes • Apps built in Slack which included a Number Input block would not, in fact, allow any numbers to be input. It was a real "you had one job" sort of situation for that particular element. The number of bugs in this feature has been updated from 1 to 0.

Bug fixes • Subtasks were not always appearing after copying a list created in Slack. "Don't sweat the small stuff" is a lovely maxim for human beings, but less appropriate for apps in charge of important information. From now on, Slack will sweat all the stuff.

Bug fixes • Everything is an itty-bitty bit better than it was before. Trust us.

Bug fixes • Don’t mind us – just making a few small adjustments to keep the app in tip-top shape. More to come soon. Cheerio!

Bug fixes • All bugs that were fixed in this release were too small for the eye to see or too fiddly for human words to describe. Nevertheless, work was done, things tinkered with and the app became subtly better.

Bug fixes • A little reminder as you go about your day: The world is a more unique place simply because you’re part of it, and you’ve affected others in ways that you can’t imagine. Oh, and no big changes to the app this time. Happy messaging!

Bug fixes • We’ve tinkered with the internal workings and polished some rough edges. The app is now better than it was.

Bug fixes • Bugs were squashed, performance was improved, work was done and the result was good. Please enjoy Slack responsibly.

Bug fixes • We’ve sanded down some rough patches in the app so as to avoid any digital splinters. Did you know that ‘digital splinters’ were a thing? They are now, but they aren’t anything you’ll need to worry about.

What’s new • Threaded replies now display full timestamps (instead of just showing the date). A little mystery can make life more interesting, but we'd argue this wasn't one of those times. Bug fixes • The "Collapse All Images" preference was not reliably performing its stated duties. That is, it was collapsing all images some of the time, and some images all of the time, but not all images all of the time. Rather than adding an asterisk and writing out a bunch of fine print below the feature description, we figured it would just be easier to fix the bug. • On the Notifications screen, the "My Keywords" field was persistently displaying "None," even when keywords had been saved. Key word: "was" (past tense). This bug is now fixed (present tense).

Bug fixes • Is it something in the air? A certain je ne sais quoi that’s hard to put a finger on? The world seems brighter, music sounds sweeter ... what could it be? The Slack app has been updated, and we can neither confirm nor deny that we’re responsible for any lightness that descends upon you.

Bug fixes • If your workspace had a time limit on editing messages, that restriction was also being erroneously applied to your personal DM. Feel free to edit those messages whenever you like — any updates will remain between you and Slackbot. • Speaking of Slackbot, the mobile app wasn't giving you the option to delete Slackbot messages within DMs. We bumped up Slackbot's "obsequiousness" setting so it will reliably make itself scarce upon your command.

Bug fixes • Ever have those weeks when it feels like nothing’s happening, but then you look back later and realise a lot of things were actually happening? This is one of those weeks for the app.

Bug fixes • We’ve tinkered with the internal workings and polished some rough edges. The app is now better than it was.

Security guidance • This release includes security improvements. Updating is recommended.

Bug fixes • We tidied the shelves, cleaned the windows and ran a white-gloved finger over every flat surface. Just a little routine maintenance to ensure that everything is shipshape. Full steam ahead!

Bug fixes • Pasting in text ahead of a URL was breaking the "Return" key functionality, not to mention the link in question. Messages, like life itself, don't always come together in a linear fashion. Add text to links whenever you like: We won't break the chain. • Extra spaces were being inserted before and after emoji in running text. We always want to give you space to express yourself; guess we took that a little too literally. • Adding a second emoji in sequence while on iPad was duplicating the first, no matter which emoji you chose. It definitely wasn't a vestige of our scrapped cloning research project. We've said too much. Please emoji responsibly.

Bug fixes • Like a New Year's resolution that peters out by July, changes to your notification schedule were not sticking, reverting as soon as the app was relaunched. Good intentions only go so far — this update contains a double-dose of "sticktoitiveness." • Was your reaction one of confusion when long-pressing on emoji reactions? You weren't alone. The reacji summary that appeared was behaving oddly, erratically, inconsistently. If we had to put an emoji to the experience, we would use the thinking face. If we had to put an emoji to this fix, it would be a thumbs up. • If you started editing a message, then decided to delete it from the edit flow, that deleted message would linger in the text entry field, requiring you to delete it again. Henceforth, if you want a message gone, gone it shall be. You don't have to ask twice. • Pasting text after a block quote was creating a second block quote along with it. 2 for the price of 1! What do you call a deal that nobody wants? We're not sure, but with this update, the promotion has ended. • In the next in our series of unintended (and undesirable) duplications, the word you were hyperlinking would find itself doubled if you happened to switch to another app midway through the process. We did a double take and doubled back for the fix. Excuse us while we double-time to the next bullet. • Closing a conversation in the sidebar was only momentarily removing it from view, as it would pop back up as soon as you refreshed the screen. Sometimes stories, or conversations, aren't done with us — beckoning us back to revisit, reframe, resolve. Sometimes they're just bugs. You get to choose if and when to return now, on your own time. • To add someone to an existing Group DM, you can do so by tapping on the DM header, or by going to the "Members" sub-menu within that popup. Unfortunately, only one of those routes was actually working. They say that when a door closes, a window opens; around here, when an "Add" button is grayed out, a bug report is filed. Come on in, however you prefer to arrive.

Bug fixes • When using an iPad with an external keyboard, pressing the Return key would attempt to send an empty message, then promptly fail (no doubt hamstrung by the philosophical paradox of delivering a message with no content whatsoever). Here's a message that's much less vague: We've fixed the bug. • In the pop-up that appears when scheduling a message, the associated copy insisted that all times were in "[Your Time Zone's] Standard Time" year-round, disregarding Daylight Savings Time entirely. The time now is ripe to bring this bug into the daylight and offer a punctual revision. • Tapping on threads in the New Message preview would cause the thread in question to load behind the preview pane, making it impossible to read. In the words of one source familiar with the situation, this was "not particularly helpful." We’ve seen a preview of this app update, which promises to be much more obliging.

Bug fixes • If you started a new message by tapping the big "+" icon (as opposed to first opening an existing channel or DM), the button to add a hyperlink did ... nothing. It would bounce ever so slightly, as if to say, "I hear you, but I cannot comply. Ask yourself, is there a reason you always seek to jump from one thing to the next? Perhaps the connection you're looking for is right in front of you." Chatty little thing, that icon. The bug is fixed, but we encourage you to find your own moments of Zen, whether or not Slack is a part of them.

Bug fixes • We cleaned the code to make sure that everything’s running smoothly. Slack – now with a streak-free shine.
