Franz6.9.0

Franz brings WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Slack, Telegram, email, Signal, and other services into one desktop workspace, letting you read and answer conversations without switching between separate apps. It keeps client chat, team discussions, and inbox handoffs in one working view, reducing the chance that a reply or approval disappears beneath busy channels.

More than 75 supported services include WhatsApp, Slack, Gmail, Signal, Discord, and Telegram, with each service running in its own isolated container. Unified notifications and unread badges show activity across those services, while any website can be added as a custom service. Magic Bar places search, direct navigation, supported actions, and requests for help behind one keyboard shortcut.

For email-heavy work, the priority inbox and sender intelligence surface formal follow-ups, approvals, and handoffs, with local search tuned to work-related messages. Signal runs natively alongside the other services and can transcribe voice notes, summarize threads, and identify action items while keeping sensitive conversations in the same workflow. Recruiters, consultants, founders, and operators can use Franz when moving between client conversations, internal chat, inbox follow-through, and secure threads throughout the day.

Franz is freeware in the Communication category for MacOS, and version 6.9.0 requires macOS 13 Ventura or later on Apple Silicon (arm64).
