Use Slack, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Skype, LinkedIn, Telegram, and more in one app and effortlessly handle the mayhem of direct messaging.

Add new messaging accounts

Connecting your accounts to IM+ is a breeze. To do so, go to Preferences and select Services. Choose the app you want to add from the list, set its name and color (so you can distinguish two Skype profiles, for example), and click Save. The account should then appear in the sidebar. Just click on it and log in with your credentials.

Use color and tags to keep apps in order

When all your accounts are in one app, things can get messy. IM+ has a few wonderful features to keep things organized. First you can select Home or Work tags to set categories for your apps, or create completely new ones. Second, assign a color profile to each service to easily distinguish multiple Telegram or Facebook accounts.

Luckily, IM+ provides a good remedy for that, allowing you to set sound and push notifications for each account individually. Just go to the Connected tab in Preferences and click on each account to choose which type of notification you prefer to get.
