Slack Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • nebkam Nebojša Kamber (@nebkam) reported

    @SlackHQ I respect the fast pace of development, I practice it myself, my problem is *forcing* the web version to redirect to Play Store on a mobile device. IMHO that's a dark UX pattern

  • oh1tr oh1tr (@oh1tr) reported

    @SlackHQ This is still broken: Windows 10, after huddle, RDP window.

  • brennan_decker Brennan Decker ♻️ (@brennan_decker) reported

    @JustAnotherPM Send to slack …. Oh wait that doesn’t work on this platform. @Twitter @SlackHQ can you help?

  • antnisP Bad programmer (He/him)🏳️‍🌈 (@antnisP) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ, you know @firefox is a real thing, not a myth of yore. Signing in from it is broken. I had to open the slack:// link on chromium.

  • arjmur Arjun Muralidharan (@arjmur) reported

    @tasedan @SlackHQ It is, but doesn’t help with multiple screens. I’d like to have a team channel / stream open and running on one screen, and do all other slacking on another. It shouldn’t be a big ask in 2021 that a desktop app supports a 30 year old tried-and-tested windowing paradigm.

  • mde Matthew Eernisse (@mde) reported

    @marcello3d @SlackHQ Seriously, falling down on the job, right?

  • GillCNiemisto Gillian Cobb Niemisto (@GillCNiemisto) reported

    @teamwork @awscloud @SlackHQ Thank you. Any updates on restoration? We’ve been down for 3ish hours…

  • agiledoc Rob Woodgate (@agiledoc) reported

    @SlackHQ my Saved Items have all suddenly disappeared from one of my workspaces. Got any known issues around this?

  • jan_ekholm Chakie (@jan_ekholm) reported

    Slack (@SlackHQ) on my iPhone has worked fine for video conferences for months, but now I’ve had two days where it just doesn’t play audio to my Bluetooth headphones. Video is playing, but no audio to/from my headphones. So either iOS is broken or Slack is broken.

  • RajShirolkar Bill Shirolkar (@RajShirolkar) reported

    @SlackHQ @yonidayan_ Facing this same issue on my home network. How was this solved? @SlackHQ

  • AkoredeNate N.A (@AkoredeNate) reported

    What's wrong with Slack? Been having issues loading my dm history on my laptop and mobile device. @SlackHQ

  • BurakEsen25 Burak ESEN (@BurakEsen25) reported

    @SlackHQ @GraceSpelman Fix it, please @SlackHQ. It is important for my company.

  • bullsize Pralay Ahankar™© (@bullsize) reported

    @cogentgene @SlackHQ It is about solving problems, and never better than pivoting

  • rolfb Rolf Bjaanes (@rolfb) reported

    @slackhq Tested how Threads work now and found issues with contextual awareness as initial notification had passed. Channels doesn't indicate unread content in a thread in that channel and Threads doesn't indicate if you have been specifically mentioned in subscribed threads.

  • MasoudRawahi Masoud R (@MasoudRawahi) reported

    Is anyone else in Oman having trouble connecting to @SlackHQ ? Most of the people in our team can't connect.

  • jan_ekholm Chakie (@jan_ekholm) reported

    @SlackHQ Other apps play audio fine to my phones, so it seems iOS handles the Bluetooth headphones ok. Slack tends to be broken every now and then, but I guess it comes with the territory (i.e rubbish Electron apps).

  • peanuttfish Peanut Fish (@peanuttfish) reported

    @SlackHQ My friend uploaded directly to slack and I can’t preview it. It always looks like this broken icon. #slackhq

  • Sarknews Юлиан Сарк. Aktenreiter der Apokalypse auf тшiттея (@Sarknews) reported

    @SlackHQ Hey. Thanks for the follow-up! I managed to attach the image. The issue reliably happens when you drag an image from an attached USB storage, like an Android phone's memory. This rarely works with most software, Slack just seems to get the error message confusingly wrong. Cheers!

  • gyankarn Karn, Gyan (@gyankarn) reported

    @SlackHQ channels for app notifications about server restarts, signups, errors

  • snvboy Ben Johnson (@snvboy) reported

    Hey @SlackHQ can you please not put the knock-knock in your TV ads? I'm trying to relax here and you're just hitting a work related Pavlovian button that I really don't want hit if I'm not working.

  • StanislavSulima Stanislav Sulima (@StanislavSulima) reported

    Hi, @Grammarly. Quick question here: Grammarly Desktop, version 1.0.1.2, does not work with @SlackHQ 4.23.0 on macOS 12.1 anymore. Slack is not blocked in Grammarly. Anything I can do by myself to fix that? Or is it a known issue? Thx

  • iTim314 Tim Williams (@iTim314) reported

    I really don’t think these @SlackHQ commercials are doing what they intended. “Here’s a tool to help you work all night and have no life while we **** on Steve who won’t sign in until 9 AM because he has a healthy work-life balance.” Yeah, okay, Slack.

  • C_Lepkowski Christopher Lepkowski (@C_Lepkowski) reported

    @SlackHQ The thing is, the pitch for Slack Connect targets already-paying customers (like us), and encourages us to turn partners (clients and vendors) into paying customers too. Ok, but then if they leave their plan (we're still paying) channels are broken? That kills the incentive.

  • JustinNoelDev Justin Noel (@JustinNoelDev) reported

    OMG! I was about to start the, "new install of @SlackHQ so login to 50 different accounts" nightmare ... and 🤯 I discovered they finally unified logins with one email address! Happy New Year 🎉🥳🎈🎁🪅

  • agiledoc Rob Woodgate (@agiledoc) reported

    @SlackHQ Sadly yes, but it looks like a retention policy has kicked in rather than there being a problem 😭

  • RienvanVelzen Rien van Velzen (@RienvanVelzen) reported

    @jfkdev @asana @SlackHQ Yeah, even bitbucket was down. So I couldn’t push my work and make PRs. I hope my colleague isn’t scared for multiple PRs tomorrow morning :’)

  • FirePing32 Prakhar Gurunani (0xPG.eth) (@FirePing32) reported

    @OrkoHunter @discord @SlackHQ Aah, it was a pain today. Slack went down(Some services still down).

  • BrynaTweets Bryna Corcoran (Br👁na) (@BrynaTweets) reported

    Remember last year when @SlackHQ went down the first day we were all back to work, and it was kinda like an accidental brilliant snow day marketing campaign?

  • jainyash108 Yash Jain (@jainyash108) reported

    @SlackHQ I am unable to see notifications on my smartphone for slack. The floating notification comes only when I am running the app. Kindly help in this issue.

  • oxinabox_frames Lyndon (Frames) White (@oxinabox_frames) reported

    @story645 @SlackHQ Slack's lack of basic user-moderation features is a problem Someone was being unintentionally ablist at me, and I just wanted to 🙈that message so I could read the thread without having that irritation. I didn't want to report them it was minor. & I didn't have energy to educate
