## Zulip Reviews in United States

### *---- "Double notifications"
Ever since they redesigned the app, I get each notification twice. How did they miss that in beta testing it…
-- Joshua MC E., 2025-06-28

### ****- "no message deletion option in new mobile app"
why?
-- bonfire0_o, 2025-06-22

### ***** "Highly underrated"
I wish Zulip were more popular than it is. Its design is much more conducive to good conversations than Slack or Discord.
-- Vesto, 2025-04-14

### ***** "Significantly better than Slack"
Our team has happily moved over to Zulip from slack and are much happier with the UI and self hosted nature of Zulip
-- Cu’thunk, 2025-03-07

### *---- "Broken app"
This app doesn’t work on my phone. It only works on desktop which is disappointing. Whenever I try to log in and join my organizations chat, it takes ages to load or it doesn’t load at all. And in the case I am already logged in and on my organizations chat, none of the chats load. This has been going on for over 6 months now. Please fix this.
-- 5 star Taylor Swift, 2023-11-22

### *---- "Can’t upload photos"
Uploading photos has always been a terrible experience and now it doesn’t work at all :(
-- steff782, 2023-01-05

### *---- "Where is server url"
I cannot find it anywhere so could not login using ipad. Please make the UI more user friendly. Server url is very hidden and kept secret but should be very public instead
-- ArrogantUser, 2022-10-11

### *---- "Failure to launch: paste disabled on open"
Can’t even paste the url to start it all up. Not even started & failing. Catastrophic adoption barrier.
-- Hate economist, 2022-01-11

### ***** "Simple and fast"
Works pretty good. It would be nice to swipe through images within the topic.
-- vladislavkorobov, 2021-12-28

### **--- "Ability to upload files is not consistent"
Update Sept 2021: why are the media upload options still not working? No one is even asking for a polished design or anything. They’re willing to have a duct-taped together app that lets you view the forums. Still can’t upload a PDF on the app.  

——

Sometimes the buttons to upload files (paperclip, iOS file system etc.) show up. Other times it only shows photo and camera access. When it did show up, it was when the reply to comment button showed up beside the text box, which only intermittently appears even if you have tapped on a comment. If you long press the comment, reply is an option, but the file attachment is only photos.   I managed to get a PDF to start uploading, but the keyboard was then pushed off the screen, so I couldn’t hit enter to post it. There may be a related issue to handling landscape to portrait while composing.
-- CharlesEdwards_III, 2021-10-02

### **--- "Inconvenient"
very difficult to navigate, and i say this as a 19 year old who is terminally online 24/7:
-- tofuwater, 2021-05-31

### *---- "I want to love it, but there is a deal breaker"
I want to love this app... I really do. It looks great and my home server runs with no hiccups at all. It’s solid. However on the iOS app there is no way to enable “hit enter to send”. As I use my ipad most of the time... with a connected keyboard case... this is a MAKE OR BREAK feature. If a Dev sees this and there is an option somewhere, please reply! The other thing I’d like to see (but isn’t a deal breaker) is the ability to turn off the whole “topic” system.  I don’t need a bunch of topics or the confusion to my users. We simply need one big group chat (no topics) and the ability to private message one another.
-- GSTLJohnny, 2020-10-28

### ****- "Doesn’t work notifications"
I use the latest zulip server app and there are no notifications even though all toggles are checked
-- Klaxons9, 2020-08-04

### *---- "Unusable"
I cannot sign into an existing server on this app so it’s just totally unusable. I’m stuck on this sign in loop: enter server url -> username password -> pick account (?) -> repeat
-- jmscgry, 2020-07-21

### ***** "Fantastic chat app, best so far"
We just  started using Zulip at the company because of the threads feature. Running a self-hosted version. This solution is fantastic because it forces users to use topics so keeps messages organized. If working with remote teams who cannot respond in real time this makes a big difference. The iOS app works well too with mobile notifications and easy filtering to see either all or only new messages or only messages in a specific stream (channel) or topic ( thread). If using any paid chat solution where you pay by user, think again. This is open source, we run it on a $10/month instance with a cloud provider.
-- Techexpert007, 2020-07-02

### **--- "No Linking/ Open in App Features: cant even paste"
I am trying to join my server, yet whenever I try to paste in the link, The keyboard keeps gping up and down like a spring.would have been easier if your server link automaitcally gets you to the join the server via app sfter installation.
-- agoodEntreprenuer, 2020-06-25

### ***-- "Needs improvement."
Maybe I’m missing it but I’m not seeing the ability to invite to a server in the app. 

On the other hand, the server portion was very easy to install - great documentation and the way you organize threads/topics is really cool. I tried several others before settling on Zulip. Keep up the good work.
-- 234245, 2020-05-02

### **--- "Mobile app needs work-  profile picture is sideways"
The mobile app is still far from useable.  Functional yes but needs some serious UI enhancements.
-- F3M80T, 2020-02-04

### *---- "App is Broken"
Sometime recently this app became broken.  I have a year old iPad Pro, running the brand newest iOS; but this app won’t work properly anymore.

When I click to view a topic with new messages in it, I get the topic screen without any of the conversation in it.  It just shows a bunch of lines, like it usually does while loading the conversation for a split second.  But for me I get that screen with no content forever.  I have to leave the topic, and then go back into it a second time for the app to load the conversation.

Additionally, if I type a message in the topic screen, it won’t show my new message to me.  I have to leave the topic and re-enter the topic to see anything I typed in the topic.  This is hard though, because once you leave the topic, the topic disappears from the list of unread topics.
-- kd7yva, 2019-11-05

### ****- "Great App"
My only complaint is the lack of GIF upload support on iOS
-- Seamazing, 2019-08-06
