It got too cluttered and stopped being developed. Unlike Twitter IM has an expectation that you’ll answer it sometime soon.īut that’s my problem and I’m an outlier. Why? Everytime I start it up I get a flurry of messages. It was sold to AOL eventually where it never got best of class status, always remaining spiritually behind AOL’s other IM client, AIM).įor me IM started sucking more and more until it got to the point that today I can’t use it. I’ll tell you why (I was a very early user of ICQ, which was the first instant messaging client that I remembered seeing. All correspondence and data will appear, even on a new phone, which means that you do not need to make backups.Danny asks “ Why did we all stop using ICQ?” On any device, you will see your contacts, messages, chats, and channels. And if quality is not important, the file will be sent in a couple of seconds. If you want to show someone beautiful high-quality photos and videos, send them without compression.

We have made 30 animated 3D masks with familiar and unusual themes. When a video call is boring, try using a mask. As a plus to your privacy, its not necessary to share your phone number. Hurry up to choose a good looking nickname using your first and last name. Read and subscribe to interesting channels, create group chats and chat with friends, use bots to make your life easier. It can help when you are on the subway, with someone else, in a meeting, or when you have forgotten your headphones. Use them when you are too lazy to type or you need a simple reaction - “OK”, “Thank you”, “I will do it”.Ĭan't listen? Just read. ICQ analyzes what they wrote to you and recommends ready-made responses. Why write when you can send a sticker? ICQ offers suggestions based on the context of the message. In order not to spend money on the phone, make calls via ICQ: make calls via voice and video, with a large group or one-on-one. ICQ is a convenient and easy to use messenger service.
