ICQ New: Messenger & Chat

macOS / Réseaux sociaux

ICQ is a messenger for those who are always online.

• Voice and video calls
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.

• Works well even with a poor internet connection
Chat and make calls through the internet. ICQ works stably, both in the forest and in bad weather, even when your internet provider has problems and you have a very weak connection.

• Stickers
Why write when you can send a sticker? ICQ offers suggestions based on the context of the message.

• Suggest responses
ICQ analyzes what they wrote to you and recommends ready-made responses. Use them when you are too lazy to type or you need a simple reaction — “OK”, “Thank you”, “I will do it”.

• Converts voice messages
Can't listen? Just read. ICQ converts voice messages to text. It can help when you are on the subway, with someone else, in a meeting, or when you have forgotten your headphones.

• Channels, chats, bots
Read and subscribe to interesting channels, create group chats and chat with friends, use bots to make your life easier.

• Many free nicknames
Hurry up to choose a good looking nickname using your first and last name. As a plus to your privacy, its not necessary to share your phone number.

• Video call masks
When a video call is boring, try using a mask. We have made 30 animated 3D masks with familiar and unusual themes.

• Photos and videos without compression
If you want to show someone beautiful high-quality photos and videos, send them without compression. And if quality is not important, the file will be sent in a couple of seconds.

• Sync between devices
On any device, you will see your contacts, messages, chats, and channels. All correspondence and data will appear, even on a new phone, which means that you do not need to make backups.
