Good star but needs notifications and inbox

Love this for the ability to post to the chat, but it needs push notifications and the ability to view the Inbox.

Chat only

Needs Inbox to be really useful

No push notifications.

Without the push notifications, it kinda looses the point of what it should do, keep you updated on your teams conversation. Its crazy thats not the first thing that was added. Its making me rethink even going over the 30 day trial.

Always has to reconnect

I feel like when I first downloaded this app a few months ago, I never had to reconnect. Now I get the "need to reconnect" message every time I check it. This is a huge pain because I use it to keep in touch with my team, but sometimes itll turn out that Ive been unconnected for 20 mins and didnt know it because I wasnt refreshing every 30 seconds. Argh. Then Ill "reconnect" and itll show I missed tons of messages. :(

Crashes and freezes all the time

Mac app for flowdock is great but iphone app awful. Giving up restarting it

Not bad

Please make push notifications work

Love the Mac client....

Needs inbox to be any good. Also every time I open the app from the lock screen, it crashes.

iOS7 iPad

iPhone version used to be better than nothing on my iPad. Under iOS7 its completely unusable.

Needs in-app badges

Good, simple, basic. What would be nice are badges inside the app. So if I have a badge on the app, open the app, I dont know where the messages are (in one of multiple flows or in a 1-to-1).

Barely usableware

Trying to actually communicate with coworkers using this app is an exercise in frustration. Text entry screen layout is poorly thought out. Attempting to read text that is off screen, when the app only 1-in-10 times allows you to scroll?Fail. Then, it has decided that recent messages need to be hidden below the fold and that the best use of my time is to dig the text out, one millimeter at a time, by multi-finger pushing the text up the screen like a madman. Its a brand new type of gesture thats required, Ill give them that. But it puts me in mind to offer a very old hand gesture, one that needs no screen to accomplish. I want to like this, I do. But the frustration levels it generates are akin to teaching my sister how to shift a manual.

Weak

Its unusable. If all you want is chat then its fine, but if you want to actually see activity on your flow youre out of luck. I can text someone and get the same type of feedback the native app gives me. The mobile site is better than the native app which is a shame since I regularly fill my tabs.

2.0 update is great!

Flowdocks app is now native and supports the inbox and threading. Every issue from the old client has been fixed, so Im a happy camper!

Cannot login with google account

Unfortunately I cannot use this update because the google auth does not work. Please fix ASAP!

Good But Needs iPad Support

This fixes most of the gripes with Flowdock. For a monthly per user service though its the only one without iPad support. If iPhone usage is all you need its great. iPad still has no support and the web based interface has issues on iPad. Otherwise it would be 5

So good, just needs ipad!

This update seriously addressed everything I wished for, and it looks better too! I only wish for a native ipad version

Much better

The new native version is way more stable and snappy. Feels nice. Now just make it iPad capable.

Great Update!

This app isnt unusable anymore!

Hooray!

The native app is great - has pretty much all the features you would expect. Lightyears ahead of the older app. Now, keeping my fingers crossed for an iPad version.

New app is awesome

Thanks for such a great product!

Amazing at breaking the email problem

The new threading and inbox capabilities have made Flowdock my #1 app for communicating with my teams. Flowdock is the #1 place to go to collaborate with my worldwide and distributed teams. I can not imagine working without Flowdock and my team mates have stopped emailing and texting me - it all happens in Flowdock. I check my mail at noon to clear external items that do not need my utmost attention. Change your work life in 2014 - get Flowdock for your teams.
