What users are saying

1. A couple annoying things: * alerts are wonky cross device and when sleeping * markdown doesn't really work and behaves differently on different devices * devices will steal messages and the history isn't always accurate as a resultVery bad connection to server and slow response of app Edit 1 : (10/24/2019) what I actually meant was if you leave app in background and reopen it, it stays in disconnected state, happened with friends too, so it's not my mobile os that's killing the connection.

2. I usually spend more time trying to get the chat to update or not randomly move around than I do actually reading chat messages.

3. Seems like they are now adding features after the recent version upgrade also.I feel like this app is very laggy and inconsistent it has a hard time distubuting messages properly.

4. Edit 2 : (11/05/2019) using experimental version & it's comparatively very good.It's nice to know the app is in heavy development, but it doesn't bode well for it's reliability and bugginess.

5. Every once in a while an update will break things, and everyone in our company has problems with mobile push notifications problems all the time, on Android and iOS.

6. EDIT: I'm now having to force stop and restart the app more than 10 times a day.Update 9/29 - The latest update on the 27th seems to have corrected the freezing issue.

7. Often freezes and slow to update chat.

8. I will gladly change to 5 stars when fixed (:Mobile app constantly freezes when trying to type a message into a channel.

9. If a chat is open I will often get the notification but no message, I have to back out of the chat then click on it again to trigger it to show.

10. If it doesn't freeze or slow down with a week of major market moving data coming I would call it stable.

11. I'm also unable to upload photos from my phone to the chat, even though it very clearly thinks it can.It's pretty glitchy and leaves a lot to be desired.
