Frequently asked questions

FollowBot watches for ✅ emoji reactions. When anyone adds ✅ to any message in a channel where the bot is present, it automatically creates a task from that message. Simple, intentional, and zero-config.
No. FollowBot is built with noise control in mind. Each user controls their own reminder frequency and quiet hours. By default, reminders go to DMs — not to the channel. Public pings only happen after 48h if a task is still open.
Yes. Multiple team members can react ✅ to the same message. Each person gets their own task reminder, independently. Great for shared responsibilities or parallel tracking.
After 3 days, you'll be prompted to upgrade to Pro. Your tasks and settings are saved. No data is deleted. If you don't upgrade, reminders will pause — but you can resume anytime by activating a plan.
FollowBot only reads messages that are reacted to with ✅ — it doesn't scan your entire history. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We follow Slack's security guidelines and never share or sell your data.
Absolutely. Invite FollowBot to as many channels as you need with /invite @FollowBot. It works across all channels simultaneously and tracks tasks from each one independently.
