Last modification: 2014-09-22 17:59:38

Since 1.65v we support XMPP protocol.

Plain XMPP settings

OAuth based settings

By default app is preconfigured for GTalk support. So you just have to enter your E-mail address and password and you are ready to go or just test. Some notices regarding XMPP implementation and apps.

GTalk - anrdoid

  • GTalk does not support messages to self. That means, that XMPP should contain another mail account (GMail account) than Live Helper Chat responsible user.

Xabber - android

  • It supports messages to self, so that means that this section e-mail and E-mail who will receive a messages can be the same.

Monal - IPhone, IPod

  • It supports messages to self.

You have to configure department to send XMPP messages. Check XMPP messages, enter recipients, and adjust how many seconds to wait untill xmpp message is send.

  • I do not receive a messages what to do?
    • If you are using different accounts one for sender XMPP and another one for recipient, make sure that receipient can receive a messages from send. Usually it's just enough to add to contacts another account.
