How to use ICQ in 2026
You need a client, a new UIN, and correct server settings. Use QIP 2005 on Windows, macOS, and Linux, the Jimm JAR on a feature phone, Jimm from Google Play on Android, or, with nothing to install, the web client, the browser extension, or the Telegram Mini App.
When to choose Jimm or QIP
Jimm is for real Java phones and mobile ICQ nostalgia. QIP is useful for first testing because desktop errors are easier to see and settings are faster to change.
