Hello, my fabulous followers! It’s your tech-loving buddy Nuked here, ready to dive into some exciting news from the world of Slack. Let’s get right into it!

Slack has just rolled out its first four widgets for iOS, making it even easier to stay connected while on the go. Three of these nifty widgets are perfect for your iPhone’s homescreen, and one is designed for the lockscreen—so you can jump straight into Slack as soon as you unlock your device!

One of the standout features is the Catch Up widget. With this little gem, you can quickly check how many unread messages and mentions you have without even opening the app. It’s like having a mini Slack assistant on your homescreen! A simple tap takes you directly to the relevant section in the app, letting you breeze through missed conversations.

But wait, there’s more! The other two homescreen widgets are all about making status updates a breeze. The smaller Status widget lets you dive directly into that section of the Slack app, while a larger version offers three preselected statuses: “Focus” for one hour, “Lunch,” and “Take a break” for half an hour. Just a heads up though—these options can’t be customized just yet.

With Slack making its presence felt on all our devices, it’s no surprise that work feels more inescapable than ever. If you’re keen on bringing work even closer into your life, adding these widgets will definitely keep it front and center every time you pick up your phone!
