not a bad month for a "mid fiverr" designer doing 30 minute rebrands.

🔥 Introducing Catch Up on Slack 🔥 Juggling work messages can be overwhelming. We've all been there – sifting through endless channels on Slack during a coffee break, between meetings, or towards the end of the day. That's why, in 2022, we set out to solve this. We asked ourselves - how might we make make dealing with this avalanche of information quick and easy? How might we increase focus for users? How might we help people get work done on-the-go? These questions led to the idea of "Catch Up". This idea started as a prototype at an internal hackathon and quickly became popular in our early dogfood releases. Personally, it completely transformed my mornings. Instead of feeling swamped with messages, I could quickly sort through them over breakfast. We also heard that many internal users were starting their day with more focus and intent. I'm thrilled to have led the concept, ideation, and design journey of Catch Up. For the team, it's more than a feature. It's a testament to building software that FEELS good. It brings the simplicity of consumer apps to the enterprise space. With Catch Up, you can now... 👆 Swipe right to mark as read, or left to keep unread ✍️ Send a message without leaving the interface ↩️ Undo anytime. We all make mistakes. We'll be doing a quick rollout on this one, so I can't wait for all of you to get your hands on this. What do you think about it? Have you had a chance to try it yet? #slack #ios #android #mobile #design
