Ratings and reviews

The last version is absolutely unusable, it crashes constantly, the calls are unstable, the behaviour is inconsistent and external Bluetooth headset is not fully supported.. UX-wise, the location of the audio device setup in the call is really not convenient, in the older version it was actually better. To be honest, the older version was also not amazingly stable but this version is a big downgrade... I'd willing to help if possible. If someone in Slack sees this, feel free to contact me✌️

Where did the option to turn on the speaker during a call go? So stupid... Edit: The developer replied quickly with a guide to the hidden control to switch to speaker. Despite the bad UX, I give them credit to that and edit my rating accordingly. A sorely long time missing feature (and thus the 4 stars) is an ability to see screen shares through the mobile app. Come on guys, it can't be that hard to implement...

A very buggy app. Doesn't turn off notifications from conversation. One time it works, one time doesn't. In list of chats shows there are unread messages, but actually there are nothing new. Tried all known solutions, including reinstall the app. Nothing helps. Sometimes messages are not being loaded. The only thing that helps: close the app and open it again. I do not have such issues with any other apps.

What's new

Bug fixes
• Fixed: Switching between workspaces outside of your larger organization via the “Jump to…” menu was failing. We suppose that’s less of a jump and more of a leap, but either way it was a bug. And no one enjoys leaping bugs. We are sorry for making you think about leaping bugs.
