1. Searching for channels by name is next to useless on mobile, and half the time I open a channel it just shows me a cached version and I have no idea whether what I'm looking at is up to date.
2. It's not even like I can sit there for a moment while it catches up, I can literally leave it open on my phone and the new messages won't sync unless I close the app, force stop, clear the cache, and reopen.Didn't work.
3. My one complaint is the way it moves a message you're typing into your drafts if you accidentally swipe away from the channel, turn off your screen, briefly leave the app, or even sometimes change your screen orientation.
4. Clicking on push notifications of a message rarely takes me to that message.It's a pretty powerful messaging software, but the mobile app experience on Android is just awful.
5. Used to be pretty great with a few minor quirks but now I can rarely open a message, thread, or channel without extremely odd dysfunction and completely incorrect mapping.
6. But over the last few months I have been getting error messages on about 10% of my slacks saying cannot send, have to restart the app.
7. It's been my experience that whenever I open any channel or DM and begin typing, I have around 10 seconds to write a sentence or the app will crash.
8. Some messages aren't fetched at all and are simply missing, and some messages refuse to send from the mobile side despite no other messaging application having issues.
9. And if I've been trying to put together a long message at the airport and that happens, it is very frustrating.Update: support reached out and later and fixed 1 &2, ty! #3 is still an issue.
10. No error messages, no crash reporting, just suddenly I'm staring at whatever was open last.
11. The search can't find my channels, or I go through periods of time seeing an alert that blocks the search saying "network error".
