History of your conversation seems to be limited to like 10 or 20 not the full day or the week before and it used to be. I used to love this tool now it just feels like it’s lost its way. ### 3/5 — Can improve *2026-07-29* Missing latest AI ### 3/5 — Not Intuitive and Difficult to Search *2026-07-17* While Slack is a solidly performing instant messaging app, the usability leaves a lot to be desired. Search results rarely include what I’m looking for there’s no ability to rename/display name a channel something more intuitive. And the app send a separate notification for the same post that has been dropped i to multiple channels. These are some features that could make the app easier to use and improve user focus and productivity. ### 2/5 — Overwhelming. Hard to keep up with *2026-06-26, version 26.06.30* Too many spaces - channels, threads, dms, hard to keep up. Also not easy to find old messages ### 3/5 — Could be better *2026-05-13* Needs to find ways to hold all messages other than when DND or Vaca os activated. Love that email is mostly in the past but being instant messaging now people expect instant responses and all structure to priority and focus are broken down ### 2/5 — バグが多い *2026-03-25* iPhoneでのバグが多い。送信予約で送信されないことある。 ### 2/5 — 更改するたびに利便性が落ちる *2026-03-24* salesforceに買収されてからのサポートや品質のクオリティが低下し続けている。 買収前はとても良い会社だったのに。デバックしているのかと首をかしげたくなる。 ### 3/5 — Complicated to track activity in large orgs *2026-02-25* I feel the effort to track activities is too high in the context of large organizations ### 4/5 — Good integrations , notifications need improvement *2026-01-07* Couldn't manage day to day without slack so thanks for continued improvement to workflows and integrations. Few suggestions for improvement: 1. Notifications about unread messages are not consistent. 2. It's very hard to search messages. 3. The limit of 9 person per message is restrictive. Adding too many tmp rooms makes it hard to manage rooms. ### 3/5 — Can’t Type in Landscape *2025-12-24* Dropping a star from my July review because you still can’t type in landscape. I avoid the phone app whenever possible and wait to use a computer. That said, Slack has matured and improved since July. ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2025-11-28* The communication and customisation are the best ### 5/5 — Love Slack *2025-11-25, version 25.11.30* I love Slack ### 4/5 — CTO Expert Labs *2025-11-09, version 25.10.50* Huddle and collaboration needs to be better ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 検索とDM上限数がね *2026-08-14* Gmail、Twitter Xと、数々のものを使っていますが、 Outlookを知る世代としては、検索機能が落ちてます。 仕事には、 あの日あの時誰が何を言った？→だからこうなった が大事なので、ものすごく面倒です できれば、これ以上使いたく無い。 そして、相対的に時間的余裕のある部署が発する、読まなくても害のないメッセージほど、絵文字が多いと言う傾向が見て取れます。 ### 1/5 — 使えない *2026-04-01* 既読していまうとメッセージを探し出せないぐらい検索できない ### 1/5 — Slow *2026-03-21, version 26.03.20* Slow, mismatch between mobile and laptop ### 1/5 — Fix disappearing status on iOS *2026-02-27* There’s a ~4 second window to enter in Slack status on your profile (as you might do when OOTO). It clears out the text every few seconds. It’s nearly impossible to change my status on iOS. ### 1/5 — Not great. *2026-02-10* Too much noise ### 1/5 — As an app, Slack has the biggest drain on my mental health *2025-11-11, version 25.10.50* This app creates so much fake work and massively needs innovation to help workers deal with the amount of inbound content coming their way. Slack was fine in a small company, but at scale, it’s hot garbage. ### 1/5 — 使いにくい *2025-11-06* どれに返信？誰に行ってるのか不明と不安、説明聞いても？？。イラつくだけです。仕事の受注なのでミスったらとドキドキします。慣れるまで半年って聞いたら尚更。。何に特化してるのかさえわからないです。 ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2025-08-18* Removed the option to see names on direct messages. Now I can’t identify colleagues. I would recommend any organization stay away and look for an alternative if you have a choice. ### 1/5 — Needs improvement *2025-07-01* Video calls are unreliable. Audio settings constantly flip and somebody can’t hear or speak. Cannot add a person to a DM without the app frozen. Favorite emojis does not include the +1 thumbs up even though it’s the most used. DMs need to expand to more than 9 people. Better integration to Microsoft teams for reliable video calls would be a plus. ### 1/5 — Bug in app *2024-08-12* There’s still a bug in this iOS app that drops hangout calls when the device screen lock engages. I can’t see the version of the app or the last update- or how to update it via intune portal. Where’s the change history and version information ? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best of the best *2026-07-01* Slack is constantly evolving to match customer needs. I couldn’t imagine my job today without it. Automations, integrations and an exemplary native UI. 10/10 ### 5/5 — Wah re wah *2026-06-29* Good ### 5/5 — great *2026-06-09, version 26.06.10* great ### 5/5 — Very nice 👌 *2026-05-24, version 26.05.20* Good 👍 for massage audio and send pics ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-05-13* Classy cooperative app ### 5/5 — Don’t go with out it *2026-05-11* They most efficient app out thier to run your bussines And keep all employees in touch with each other And keep tasks at hand Don’t go with out it to run your bussiness ### 5/5 — Game changer *2026-01-08* Used for years - too easy 🤍 ### 5/5 — The BEST *2025-12-26, version 25.12.20* Slack is the best App ever. ### 5/5 — Good *2025-12-17, version 25.12.20* Good ### 5/5 — Good *2025-12-14, version 25.12.10* Convenience and perfect --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
