Ratings and reviews

It is often difficult and confusing to navigate the UI and send messages. I have a relatively very high tech acuity, and this app is not intuitive in many ways. E.g., my boss recently started a group thread with three people. Seems simple enough. But then in someone's reply, it started some new "sub thread" or conversation, and when I tried to reply to that, the app prompts me to select whether I want to also send the message to the group. So confusing! Please simplify process and organization.

Incredibly slow to load any threads, channels, or DMs. Impossible to tell if the messages will eventually load or if the screen is going to stay empty. Android notifications will appear, but tapping on them will result in an empty or un-updated thread. It's an incredibly frustrating experience.

Terrible. I didn't know there were music, video, or huddle preferences that are automatically turned on. I have most of my permissions off so the fact they didn't ask or inform me of any such thing even though they have instructional prompts every 5 seconds but no mention of this. I only found out bc I got a data warning bc of this I used all my data and have 21 days until it's renewed. Also I never run out of data and often use wifi & had even been home until u just left to run errands.
