I'm glad I'm not the only one having these issues, but I'm sorry it's happening at all. I've loved Spark for years, but it has become unusable in the last week.
How is Apple Mail? Does it suck less than it used to? I have been using Gmail's mobile while attempting to ride out this Spark issue.
And Last month I had to cancel my subscription and today I installed Mac OS 27 public beta and went back to Apple Mail.
The new “AI-powered” version completely broke it: Clear regression in UX and UI, Catastrophic stability (Mac + iOS), Constant lag, freezes, emails taking 1-2 minutes to open, AI forced everywhere (even when disabled) + aggressive paywalls.
It genuinely feels like the whole team was fired and replaced by a single developer with a Claude Max subscription and a checklist that just says “add AI everywhere.”
Shame. It used to be an excellent client. Now it’s just bad…
When I pull down and want to refresh to check for new emails they are not showing but notification bar showing me an email and when I click on it will open the email. But it’s not visible in the list.
Anyone else having similar issue?
For those of you having issues with lagginess (as I was for a long while), I found that completely deleting the app and then reinstalling the app did make the windows load snappier. Still not very happy with the state of the app, but at least it is usable now.
Hi
I was recently forced to download the spark destop app on my Mac. I dont have a paid account.
it works really poorly and me and my team are considering replacing it.
are we the only ones? does anyone know of good alternatives?
thanks! Guy
When does the support for 'Spark Classic' end? I much prefer this one than the laggy, and complicated newer Spark Desktop version.
Would we still be able to use the Spark Classic?
Thanks.
The Mac update was installed, and I was instantly logged out.
I haven't been able to log back in since.
A few days ago, push notifications stopped working for all my SMTP accounts. There are still many other bugs, and now this issue has happened as well.
I'm extremely frustrated with paying for such a service. You guys are focusing on AI features while neglecting fundamental bugs.
Hello everyone,
I was having a lot of trouble with Spark on Windows (always worked on Mac and iOS) to connect to my job Microsoft account, and suddenly everything is working as a charm since last update (version 3.30.6.140387, but I may have missed several of them, since I was not using it anymore).
My symptoms were blocked interface (no possible clicks), especially when using my work account. And the calendar, which never worked, is now working.
Did you have the same change? Maybe is it related to other actions, from my work admin ?
Thanks to confirm/deny.
