About this app

Zulip (https://zulip.com/) helps teams of all sizes be more productive together, from a few friends hacking on a new idea, to globally distributed organizations with hundreds of people tackling the world's hardest problems.

Unlike other chat apps, Zulip lets you read and respond to every message in context, no matter when it was sent. Maintain your focus and then catch up on your own time, reading the topics you care about, and skimming or skipping the rest.

Like everything Zulip, this official Zulip mobile app is 100% open-source software: https://github.com/zulip/zulip-flutter . Thank you to the hundreds of contributors who have made Zulip what it is!

Zulip is available as a managed cloud service or a self-hosted solution.

Ratings and reviews

Another "update" that breaks core functionality. Why? How? No search, read receipts not working, very slow message loading. No search! This is insane! I actually went to using zulip on my web app in desktop mode just to find a message. Edit - still bad after "updates". Can only search main threads, read receipts are very odd, messages aren't often marked as read. Can't easily reply to a channel, instead it defaults to "general chat". I could go on, overall a bad experience.

First version never would display in English; the app always displayed in some foreign language so it was really difficult to navigate. Downloaded again for a new phone and always tells me "cannot connect to server" even though my connection is fine. Good desktop app but the phone app is just incredibly buggy in my experience. Will update if I ever get it to work.

This mobile app is complete trash. You can't even do something as basic as tag a channel, unless you know the exact formatting the application uses and type it perfectly. The desktop app has auto complete for tagging channels. Also there is zero way to get back to the main menu without backtracking a million times. I have to tap the back button 20 times just to get to the main menu.
