Slack doesn't offer built-in status scheduling, but you can do it with a free app called Status Butler. It lets you schedule status updates, set recurring statuses, and use custom emojis — all managed directly from Slack's Home tab.
Install a Slack status scheduler like Status Butler, open the app's Home tab in Slack, and create a new scheduled status. Set the status text, emoji, start time, end time, and choose whether it repeats on specific days of the week.
Slack doesn't support recurring statuses natively, but Status Butler adds this feature for free. You can automatically set your status to "In a meeting" every Monday and Wednesday at 10 AM, or "Out of office" every Friday afternoon — set it once and forget it.
The easiest way to automate your Slack status is with Status Butler — a free Slack app. Create a schedule with your desired status text, emoji, and times, and it will automatically update and clear your status without any manual effort.
You can manually set an out of office status in Slack, but it won't activate on a future date or clear itself automatically. With Status Butler, you can schedule your vacation status in advance — just set the dates, status text (e.g., "On vacation"), and emoji. It activates and clears automatically.
Yes — Status Butler is completely free to install and use. You can add it to your Slack workspace in 30 seconds and start scheduling statuses immediately. No credit card required.

It supports recurring schedules, one-time events, custom emojis, and flexible weekly intervals all in one simple interface.
