The cloud app to keep Slack active green status.

Looking for a cloud app to keep Slack active green status — without keeping your laptop on, a mouse jiggler plugged in, or some script running on your desk? That's exactly what Stay Green On Slack does. Your laptop sleeps. The cloud holds your dot green.

Why a cloud app to keep Slack active green status beats every alternative

Slack marks you Away after exactly 30 minutes of no mouse or keyboard activity. That's the rule that breaks every other approach:

• Mouse jigglers only work while you're at your desk and your laptop is on.
• Browser tabs require Slack to remain open and at least occasionally focused.
• Local scripts stop the moment your machine sleeps, restarts, or hits a software update.

A cloud app sidesteps all of this. Your Slack session lives on a remote server that pings Slack on your behalf — every minute, around the clock, regardless of whether your laptop is on, asleep, or in another country.

How the cloud app works

Stay Green On Slack is a cloud app to keep Slack active green status without needing your laptop running. Your Slack session is stored encrypted in our database, and our presence service connects to Slack on your behalf using a WebSocket. Slack sees that connection as you being active — exactly the same as the Slack desktop app would look.

1. Create an account. Free 14-day trial, no card required.
2. Install the Chrome extension. It reads your Slack session token directly from your browser — no DevTools, no copy-pasting.
3. Open Slack in Chrome. Click the Stay Green extension icon and press Connect.
4. Set your schedule (or pick 24/7). Choose the hours you want to appear active, or flip the always-on toggle.
5. Close everything. Your status stays green from the cloud.

What you get

• Green dot, all the time — even when your laptop is closed.
• Cloud-based, so it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, iOS, Android.
• Schedule it (9–5, Mon–Fri) or set it to 24/7.
• Undetectable — uses the same APIs as Slack itself.
