Slack

Slack

Slack brings the team together, wherever you are, with all of your communication and tools in one place. Slack allows remote teams to stay productive no matter where you’re working from. Instead of a single overstuffed inbox, conversations in Slack happen in dedicated spaces called channels. Slack also allows you to break out of the inbox and work in channels instead, giving everyone on your team a shared view of progress and purpose. Slack makes it simple to follow conversations or find important information in an easily searchable archive. Unlike email, Slack lets you choose which conversations are most important — and which can wait.

How do I Turn on Slack Dark Mode?

Slack now enables users to browse the app in Dark Mode. Dark mode helps make working in Slack easier on your eyes by using a darker, higher-contrast color theme. You can turn on dark mode from your Slack preferences, or sync dark mode in Slack with your operating system (OS) settings on certain devices.

Note: This preference is device specific, so adjusting dark mode on the desktop app won’t sync with Slack on the browser or mobile app.
