Troubleshooting

How to fix Flock not working

Flock is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach flock.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check Flock's status page

    Start at https://status.flock.com and https://help.flock.com. If the service reports a problem, wait for the fix; if it looks normal, continue to the next step.

  2. Reload the Flock window

    In a browser, press Ctrl+R on Windows or Cmd+R on Mac; a hard reload is Ctrl+Shift+R or Cmd+Shift+R. In the desktop app, quit from the tray or menu bar and open it again. This often clears a stuck loading screen.

  3. Sign out of Flock and back in

    Open the profile menu and choose Sign out, then sign in with your work email. This refreshes the session. It often fixes messages that stay unsent or a window that keeps reconnecting.

  4. Reinstall the Flock app

    Uninstall the desktop app and install the current version from the official site. On Android, clear the cache first at Settings > Apps > Flock > Storage > Clear cache; on iOS, use Settings > General > iPhone Storage > Flock > Offload App, then reinstall from the App Store.

While Flock is down: what to use instead

  • Slack Use it for team channels, direct messages, and file sharing while Flock is unavailable.
  • Microsoft Teams Use it for workplace chat, meetings, and shared files if your team already has Microsoft accounts.
  • Google Chat Use it for direct messages and group conversations through a Google Workspace account.
  • Email Use email for updates, attachments, and messages that can wait until the service works again.

About

What happens when Flock goes down

Flock is a team messaging and collaboration app for channels, direct messages, file sharing, and video calls. When it breaks, teams lose chat, calls, shared files, and status updates, and that hits support queues and engineering handoffs; the status shown above comes from problem reports counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, not from any direct probe of the service.

Messaging breaks first: messages sit on sending, and channels fail to refresh. Calls may fail to connect or drop mid-meeting, while file uploads and previews hang or return an error. You may get signed out or see a blank channel list, while others keep working from a cached session, so the trouble often looks partial. A regional or intermittent outage can still push the report level above its usual level; the official status page or help centre can confirm whether the service has posted an incident.

Questions

Flock FAQ

Is Flock down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for Flock are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Check the official status page for the company's own notice. To tell whether the fault is only on your side, load the web app on another network and try a different browser; if those work, the problem sits with your device or local network.

Why do my Flock messages stay on 'Sending'?

A message stuck on 'Sending' usually means the app lost its connection to the server, even if your browser still loads pages. Switch from Wi-Fi to cellular, then close and reopen the app. If the message still will not send, copy the text somewhere safe and try again from the web app.

Why can't I join a Flock video call?

Calls need access to your microphone and camera, and the app has to reach the call service through your network. If the join screen hangs, allow the microphone and camera permissions, then try the call in a different browser or on your phone. A corporate VPN or firewall can block the media connection, so test once with it off.

Why does Flock keep signing me out on desktop?

The desktop app can sign you out after an update or a password change, and a stale saved session can keep the cycle going. Sign in again and check that you have the latest app version. If it still drops you, remove the app's saved data and sign in once more. If your company uses SSO, ask your admin whether the session lifetime changed.

Why can't I upload a file to a Flock channel?

Uploads fail when the file is larger than your workspace allows or the connection drops mid-transfer. Try a smaller file and upload from the desktop app instead of the browser. If only one channel fails, ask the channel owner about permissions.

How we track Flock

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Flock, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Flock, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Flock's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
