Comments on Twist: Organized Messaging for Android

This has proven to be a decent communications tool for our organization. Not as constantly in-your-face as Slack, so if you need to be constantly poked, Slack is a better tool. For us, Twist is preferable because we need to work without forced interruptions, and we are disciplined enough to check the app periodically.

Very good application but notifications are not working, we tested messages between iis android and windows, no notifications arrive also after modifying notification settings

Twist is great for asynchronous team communication! I mostly use it on desktop, but the Android app is important to have and works well.

I have been using Twist for a few years, and the app has come a very long way! Notifications are consistent. The UI is very clean and easy to use. The only things preventing a 5-star rating is the bugs within the notifications. When I receive a message, I get a push notification and a bubble. Any attempt to reply or react causes the bubble to close. The push notification allows reading and replying but tapping it to enter the app causes the notification and the bubble to disappear.

We have used twist for years but now Android users can't open PDF files that are saved within the program. Please fix asap!!!

Awful. - notifications don't work (even after doing all that support suggested) - desktop version just gets frozen, and you have to 'kill' it before you can switch between chats again - browser version just stopped loading on 11/25/2020 Our company switched from Slack expecting seamless performance from Twist. App is fine, but is not enough. Main goal of messengers is quick communication - instead we got complaints from all the team and endless switching between browser version/desktop and app
