imo-International Calls & Chat 2024.03.1131

Chatting and audio/video calling apps have turned up in the Play Store en masse in recent times. The influx of a number of messenger and chat apps have provided the users flexibility. Some apps have become popular because the popular apps are banned in the region. For instance, WhatsApp is banned in China and a few Middle Eastern countries and it has become a necessity for many people to use other chat apps to fulfill their chatting and calling requirements. Imo free video calls and chat has emerged as an excellent chat app option for many users and has gained popularity with the users. We look at the app's features to help you decide if you and your friends should switch to this chat app or not.

A noticeable problem with the app is that it does not install in one-go and keeps updating itself with different modules. This is irritating and is not dependent on your choices as well. IMO would start downloading a video streaming module even if you have not provided it any such permissions and this can be a nuisance. Either the app should be downloaded in one-go or the add-ons should be downloaded based on permissions provided to the app.
The chat app requires you to sign up to get started and needs your number and a verification code for the purpose. Once you have registered, you are taken to the homepage where all users in your phone's contact book who are on IMO are directly added to your IMO contact list.

The app has a four-tab interface with the main tab being 'Chats'. This is where you see all your Chats and the stories put up by your contacts. You can start a new chat, new call or a group chat through the section or send a message to a contact that you have already messaged or contacted before. You can also search for friends as well to message and can see their online status through the search.

The chat app's other tabs are called 'My Planet', 'Explore' and 'Contacts'. MyPlanet is the tab where the app shows you what people in your region are sharing on IMO. There is a Friends section where you can only see pictures shared by your contacts while there is also a 'For You' section that shows you posts and videos shared by IMO users in your region. The 'Explore' section is for searching and joining IMO Groups and for accessing the app's 'Who is Online' feature. IMO groups can be explored based on topics, members, and locations with interaction possible with group members easily through this option. Who's Online is a newer addition to the app that allows people to wave at other online people in areas close by and if the wave is accepted, chatting can be started. This is the app's proposition to help people meet strangers online.

The chat app's primary features are chat, audio call and video call. The app does these perfectly well. You can send emoticons, pictures, attachments and voice notes in the chat thread. You can make audio and video calls and add members to make group calls with ease. There is also the possibility of setting a wallpaper for the chat background and view the other person's IMO profile too.

Features:

• Easily navigable app design
• Excellent chat, audio call and video call options
• Great Groups section where people can meet like-minded people
• Interesting 'Who is Online' feature that can connect you with strangers
• Simple and easy to make group audio and video calls

Conclusion:

Imo free video calls and chat is more than a simple chat app. Apart from the regular audio and video calling features, the app's groups and Who's Online features show that the app is a social media platform in itself. If you can ignore the app's constant downloading of one feature or another, this chat app can help you in finding new and cool people with ease!
