It's nice, but still some problem with Slack integration; while I open a web link with slack, I'm not stuck in a window without closing possibilities.. have to shutdown the app to get out of it. Plus the windows alert for message is really aggressive; gonna take a look if I can disabled this option.

Also, it should be an icon tray app for better experience :)

Excellent apps that replaced all the pinned (always open) tabs that took almost half of my browsers tab space.
I completely loved it, and have created a new workflow that works way better than before.
Only request would be these integrations:
- Freshbooks Classic (https://www.freshbooks.com/addons)
- Boomerang for Gmail (https://www.boomeranggmail.com/)
- 1Password - Integration that can be used to autofill password from 1Password
- RecueTime (https://www.rescuetime.com)
- Product Hunt
That would be just lovely!

Ohh and Alfred integration for Mac, to be able to type the app name, and station switches to the corresponding app tab.

App is awesome but could use some UI tweaks to make it even better IMO. For example, it would be awesome to have an actual number of my gmail accounts that shows the number of unread emails instead of just a red dot. The same would be awesome for things like Slack messages, Zendesk messages, etc. The ability to add divider lines and change the color scheme to a solid color version would be cool too. Happy to provide any further details on these ideas if desired.

I'm on Windows 10, and I find that notifications still play a sound. I've tried to turn them off using volume mixer, which works for all other software except Station.
I wouldn't mind, it's just my PC is playing Spotify across the office, so notification sounds throughout the day are driving everyone a little crazy. Here is my Volume Mixer. Any ideas??
Report
@al3xstrat - any ideas? Still getting bombarded with notification sounds with no way to turn the sound off :(
I have multiple slack channels, some I want to receive notifications for, some happy to just check when I have free time, in which case I don't want to see an unread badge. I see no way to differentiate two in this, whereas Franz has this.
Happy to alter review if I missed settings on how to configure this.
Pros:
Beautiful design, easy to use
Cons:
No per app notification handling, which makes it unusable.

What's the difference between chrome pin tab and Station?
It's redundant.Less is more. So I think chrome pin tab and bookmarks is enough.
Hello Vianney, glad to see you there! We recently added the support for some popular chrome extensions like Mixmax or Clearbit. Are there some you wanted in Station?
Report
I've used Station for a few months now, apart from a break of a few weeks when I changed company. After a couple of weeks without it, I had to contact the team to get access again because I fell into the Infinite Chrome Tab problem, which Station fixes.
It's great to keep you productive, keeping all of your work apps in one place, and well organised too. Need a Google Sheet, find it in a tab under Drive. Need ProdPad or Hotjar? Just click the logo and you're back in. Need to focus? Just turn off notifications. Need a new app added? Just ask the guys and they'll add it to their backlog.
Pros:
Clean, great support
Cons:
Doesn't yet support password manager, or Chrome apps like Grammarly

I have tried Franz and other sorts of unified workapp.
Station is definitely one that makes a difference !
I'm not sure it will be a reflex to open Station instead of Chrome/Firefox/Safari to find quick info ! The future will tell us :)
Pros:
It's really convient to have everything in one place, with a great UX :)
Cons:
I'd like to have extensions from Chrome for Gmail, Hubspot and other apps.
Report
Couldn't agree more, the extensions are so valuable when it comes to products like Gmail.

Station
A non-open source free software without a privacy policy makes one doubt the software.
Pros:Feels Nice
Cons:Privacy Policy is absent.
No stance towards data policy is shown.
Closed Source.
