Guide For Imo

After downloading and installing imo, you need to register the existing chat accounts that you want to use, determine which accounts you want to link together (for simultaneous sign-on), and review the Preferences settings.

1. On the Home screen, tap Apps and then tap imo.

2. Tap the icon of a service that you want to access using imo. You must already have an account with the selected service.

3. Enter your username and password for the selected service, and tap Sign In.

4. If the sign-in is successful, the chat account is added to the list on the Me tab and you’re logged into the account.

5. To add other chat accounts, tap the Add Account button and repeat steps 2–4.

6. Optional: To change your current Availability (preventing others from requesting chats while you’re setting up imo, for example), tap the text beside your picture placeholder on the Contacts tab and select an option from the menu that appears.

7. Optional: To add a picture that identifies you during chats, tap the picture placeholder on the Contacts tab, select the stored picture that you want to use, crop the image as desired by moving and resizing the blue selection rectangle, and tap Done.

8. Optional: If you’ve registered two or more chat accounts in imo, you can link them by tapping the Link accounts button on the Me tab. When accounts are linked, signing in to one of them automatically signs you in to all of them.

9. To review Preferences for imo, tap the Preferences icon at the bottom of the Me tab. When you’re done making changes, press the Back key. Preferences in the Privacy section that you might want to immediately review include these:

Auto Start. When checked, imo automatically launches each time you turn on the phone. Because imo contributes to battery drain and you may not always want to be available for chats, you can remove the check mark and manually launch imo when needed.

Nonbuddy IMs. Clear this check mark to prevent people who aren’t in your Buddies or Friends lists from messaging you.

10. When you’re done using imo, you can simultaneously sign out of all accounts and exit the program. On the Me tab, tap the Sign Out icon and then confirm by tapping Yes in the dialog box that appears. (You can also choose Sign Out from the Availability menu on the Contacts tab.)
