Additional Software

Riot.im, Hoccer and Kontalk could also be added to the charts. 94.220.154.71 (talk) 08:16, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Each of those three messengers should have a Wikipedia article first. See WP:WTAF. --Dodi 8238 (talk) 11:20, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Ring fits that criterion. 94.220.152.66 (talk) 07:38, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Im+ could also be added to the list of programs. 83.150.96.149 (talk) 08:44, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A few more instant messaging clients: https://www.androidheadlines.com/2013/09/top-10-best-im-instant-message-apps-android.html and https://www.androidpit.com/best-instant-messenger-apps-for-android 83.150.96.149 (talk) 09:16, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cyph would be a good one to add for the secure messengers section. 23.243.26.182 (talk) 18:59, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

These messaging apps do not meet this article's inclusion criteria. Before adding a client, ensure that it has a corresponding Wikipedia article, or create the article first using the software notability essay as a guideline. --Dodi 8238 (talk) 09:38, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm surprised not to see Google Hangouts in this page... an oversight ? And what about adding a column to specify which of them use cloud messaging or not ? It has huge consequences (cross platform, environmental impact...) Jabuz72 (talk) 00:45, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Viber hasn't updated its linux package since version 12. While linux is still downloadable from the Viber website, its .pkg doesn't install on recent Ubuntu releases. Linux should probably be changed to "partial". Krolaw (talk) 11:49, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Facetime and Google Duo

Should Facetime and Google Duo be included on this list? Dktrigeek (talk) 15:53, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question: possible data to add to article

Hi.; i notice this article does not provide data on the ability for each app to open group threads.

Also, I notice this article does not mention a number of apps, such as the ones below. Am I looking in the wrong place? is there another article where these items would be displayed? thanks.
