Is Slack Down?
Written By The Aftertone Team
Check https://status.slack.com for live status. If Slack is not listed as having an active incident, the issue may be on your end -- try restarting the app or checking your internet connection.
What to do right now
1. Open Google Calendar directly. Your events sync there regardless of whether Slack is working.
2. Write your three priorities for the day. Open Notes or grab a piece of paper. Three things that have to happen today. Slack going down does not change what matters.
3. Check Slack's status. Slack outages affect messaging, files, and calls simultaneously.
4. Start on your first priority. The real cost of a planning tool outage is not the 20 minutes it is down -- it is the hour you lose waiting for it instead of working.
If this keeps happening
If Slack is down, it is one of the better mornings to get real work done. Aftertone's Focus Screen removes everything except the task you are on -- and the weekly report will show whether this morning was one of your best.
Slack is a messaging tool. Aftertone is a planning and focus system. A Slack outage is not a productivity crisis -- it is a chance to see what your focus hours actually look like without the interruptions.
