Extension summary

Delete Slack messages in bulk. It supports removing slack messages in public channels, private channels, group chat, and DM. (Caveat: for group chat and DM, you can ONLY remove your own messages).

Also, it removes threaded messages as well. Disclaimer: This is a paid product.

ATTENTION:
There are 2 different types of licenses. You must be an admin in order to delete other people's messages. Once again, you can't delete other people's DM or group chat messages.

Admin License - If you are a Slack admin, you should choose this license. It would allow you to remove other people's messages in channels. A non-admin license will let you remove your own messages only.

NOTE: you can only remove your own messages in a DM, however.

Non-admin License - You should choose this license if you are simply a member in your Slack workspace. Nothing prevents you from using an admin license, but you'll still only be allowed to remove your own messages.

For bulk deleting my own messages (not as an admin), it worked very well. It does a bit slower than one would hope, however, I believe that is a limitation of slack and not the program. I had several issues with the program early on and the owner reached out quickly and resolved the issues promptly which led to the latest update. All in, if you are looking for a solution to mass deleting your messages without doing it yourself, this is for you. As another poster mentioned, I would 100% buy and use again when I am in need of deleting my messages.

It's OK. Very slow at processing and no button to stop it once started. Selecting time zone doesn't work so you can't run it on time range.

Exceptional time-saver! Worked perfectly! I needed to delete my messages from the organization where I wasn't admin and extension made it happen for me! Deleted all my messages from months of everyday conversations! Absolutely worth every penny! I'll purchase it again whenever I need to delete messages from Slack!
