Why NotAway

Slack automatically sets your status to "away" after just a few minutes of inactivity. Whether you're in a meeting, working on a different device, or simply taking a short break, your coworkers see you as away — and that can lead to missed messages, delayed responses, and the wrong impression about your availability.

NotAway keeps Slack and Teams active during your scheduled hours. Connect with the matching browser extension once, then NotAway manages your presence in the background. You do not need to keep your computer or browser running.

Set a custom schedule to appear active on Slack only during your working hours. Choose the days and times that match your routine, and NotAway handles the rest. It works with multiple Slack and Teams workspaces too — ideal for freelancers, contractors, and anyone juggling several teams.

If you've ever searched for how to keep Slack from showing away, how to stay online on Slack, or how to prevent Slack away status, NotAway is the answer. It's a simple, reliable service that keeps your Slack green status active so you can focus on your work — not on managing your online presence.

NotAway also helps with the operational side: if a workspace stops syncing because its credentials need to be refreshed, you get an email notification instead of silently losing your active status. That makes it easier to manage Slack and Teams connections across every workspace you depend on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does NotAway support Teams?
Yes. Choose Teams when adding a workspace, connect with NotAway Connect Teams, and set your working schedule. Refresh the connection with the extension whenever NotAway asks you to reconnect.
How do I keep my Slack status active?
NotAway keeps your Slack status active automatically. Just sign up, add your Slack workspace, and set your preferred schedule. NotAway will maintain your active status during those hours — no app to install, no browser to keep open.
How to prevent Slack from showing me as away?
Slack automatically marks you as away after a short period of inactivity. NotAway prevents this by keeping your session active in the background. Your status stays green and online, even if you're working on something else or away from your desk.
Does NotAway work with multiple Slack workspaces?
Yes! NotAway supports multiple Slack workspaces. You can add all the workspaces you need and manage them from a single dashboard. This is especially useful for freelancers and contractors who work with several teams.
Will I know if a Slack workspace stops syncing?
Yes. NotAway watches for workspace sync errors and sends an email when credentials need to be refreshed. This helps you fix the workspace before your Slack active status silently stops updating.
Can I schedule when I appear active on Slack?
Absolutely. NotAway lets you set a custom schedule with specific days and hours. Choose your timezone, pick the days of the week, and set start and end times. Your Slack status will only be kept active during the hours you choose.
Is NotAway safe to use?
NotAway uses your Slack session tokens to maintain your active status. Your tokens are stored securely and are only used to keep your status online. We don't read your messages, access your files, or modify anything in your workspace. You can remove your workspace at any time.
