The summer break is behind us — and there's no better time to re-energise your app with content that welcomes people back, motivates them, and sets the tone for a strong final quarter.
Here are a few ideas to get you started ⤵️:
- Kick things off with a "Welcome back" message from leadership or the CEO: A warm greeting goes a long way in setting a positive tone for the season ahead 🙌
- Get employees talking on the Social Wall: invite them to share their best back-to-work tips or a favourite holiday snap, and get leaders to lead the way 🏝️
- Share company updates and goals for the months ahead - and make it interactive with a Quiz where employees can win small prizes 🏆

August is a great time to make sure your team has the best tools at their fingertips heading into a busy September. Here's what we've been working on:
- ️@Mentions: Tag teammates directly in group chats so the right people never miss what matters. Just type @ and pick who needs to see it.
- Read receipts in group chats: See exactly who has read your message in real time. No more guessing — just clarity.
- Online/offline status: Know who's around before you reach out. Real-time availability, right in chat.
New Privacy & Visibility Settings page:
- ️Chat Activity: Toggle read receipts and online status on or off org-wide — and decide whether employees can manage their own visibility or not.
- Content Visibility: Who-viewed-content tracking and default creator name settings now live here too. One home for it all.
