Description from store
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.
Instructions
* Log in with your Slack login.
* Get a license via Gumroad and enter it in the extension popup.
* Select the target channel, DM, etc..
* Select the message sender whose messages you would like to delete.
* Click on the Bulk Delete button.

- (2025-02-01) Papa A. Sefa: I was a little skeptical but it worked exactly as intended. Would recommend!
- (2025-01-23) Nicole Stoerkel: Did exactly what I needed it to, removed messages in bulk, a feature Slack greatly needs. I am an admin so that helped lol
- (2024-09-05) Jason Brameld: 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.
- (2024-06-06) Yuliya Zayenchkouskaya (Kiska): 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!
- (2023-12-25) Vasanth Asokan: Worked as advertised, with minimal fuss! Love the productivity gains enabled by this extension, well designed, low complexity.
- (2023-12-23) Tayfun Uslu: I had to delete the contents of a single channel with over 1000 messages. I chose the monthly membership, obtained the license key and deleted the contents of that channel. After that, I had no need for the subscription and sent an e-mail to cancel it. It was cancelled within hours. Great product and great service!

- (2023-07-18) Jenn Wlem: I wasn't allowed to use this app with my organization; however the developer is very responsive and provides excellent customer service. If you're hesitating about using this, don't--there IS a person on the other end! The instructions were also easy to follow.
