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.

Please send questions, comments, and bug reports to support@zulip.com.

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.

Hi Marc, We appreciate your feedback about what's important to have in our mobile app. Search and read receipts have both been added to the app now (along with a lot of other requested features)! Please grab the latest update from the Play store and let us know what you think. We also hope that messages are loading more quickly for you now!

This app is the worst that is missing huge chunks of functionality from what the browser version has. it is horrible to navigate and try to type messages as the chat window constantly shoots up over the place you want to chat against. the ability to see the topics on a channel is horrible and clicky. literally spent about 5 hours setting this app up on my trueNas, thought it looked good, but then this app kills all home of using this as a replacement for slack. home nav MUST be always there.

A bug causes the UI to have the indeterminate loading bars constantly going. Messages are sent, but do not appear in the stream until you force close the app and reload. replies are invisible until you force close as well

Hi Michael! That sounds really frustrating and unexpected. Would you join us in #mobile in the Zulip development community to help us investigate? https://zulip.com/development-community/
