Team Chat
Channels, direct messages, unread badges, mentions, archiving.
Team messaging: channels, direct messages, unread badges, and archiving. It uses SSE polling for near-real-time delivery (no separate app to install).
Channels
- General: there on first run, can't be deleted.
- Custom channels: one per topic, named with a # (for example #dispatch, #parts, #training).
- Direct messages: one-to-one or a small group.
Membership
Channel -> Members -> + Add. Add anyone in the shop. Members get unread-badge bumps on new messages.
Messages
Attach images or documents (up to 10 MB). Edit or delete your own message, as long as nobody has replied to it yet.
Mentions
Type @name to mention a teammate. They get an in-app notification and, if enabled, a push. Mentions follow a teammate even if they're renamed later.
Archive, don't delete
Archive a channel and it moves to an Archived section with its history intact. Channels are archived rather than deleted, so the record stays.
