SlackCatchUp Description
Recently, Slack introduced its ‘All Unreads’ section within its official client, answering the prayers of many developers who now can effortlessly catch up on all missed messages after a long weekend or vacation.
As expected, this section allows you to mark entire channels or notifications one by one or, even faster, use the self-explanatory ‘Mark All Messages Read’ to clear them all. It works brilliantly if you are currently part of only one Slack team.
Here is where a very lightweight and efficient, Electron-based called SlackCatchUp comes into play. In just a few words, SlackCatchUp basically provides you with an unobtrusive and straightforward way to view all your unread messages across multiple Slack teams from under a single roof.
Simple installation and stylish and intuitive interface
You can get started with this neat application in the minimum amount of time and with the least amount of effort thanks to its streamlined installer. Once deployed, upon first launching the app, you are required to log in using your official Slack credentials and authorize access.
Since it’s an Electron app, it should not come as a surprise that the interface, while simplistic, is quite modern-looking, neatly emulating the style of the Slack app. There’s a simple toolbar that encompasses four buttons which allow you to access the Teams toolbar, to refresh the Slack message feed, to add new teams and to remove already existing ones.
Catch up with your unread messages with the least amount of hassle
This is the perfect time to mention that adding new teams is practically a walk in the park, as you only need to click the plus shaped button and enter the name of the team and its designated Slack domain.
Considering its simplicity, there’s really not much we can say regarding the workflow, except that, just like in the case of Slack’s ‘All Unreads’ section, SlackCatchUp allows you to individually mark messages as read or get rid of all of them by clicking the Mark All Messages Read’ button.
Effortlessly go through all your Slack team messages with the help of this simple app
Taking everything into consideration, while at first, it may not look like much, SlackCatchUp is actually a very efficient and useful app.
SlackCatchUp can surely save you some precious time by allowing you to view all your messages, from all the Slack teams you are part of, in a very intuitive feed and, best of all, it hardly uses any resources in order to do so.
