There’s no question that dressing up your IMVU avatar is super fun. There’s no limit to how you can create your look and express yourself. But the fun really comes to life in chat rooms, where you can not only meet up with friends, but you can take full control over what your avatar does, how it interacts, and how it shows up to the occasion.
In this IMVU Spin Up, we want to show you how to trigger your avatar to perform the actions that come with your starter inventory, on both your Desktop and Mobile app. When you’re just starting a conversation with someone, it might help to use an action as an icebreaker. Think about what you do in real life? Do you shake hands? Wave hello? Same thing applies on IMVU. Here’s how!
IMVU Desktop App
Your avatar can wave hello, clap, cheer and even breakdance in 2 easy steps! Here’s a few tips, and a few icebreakers if you’re feeling particularly outgoing today.
Pro tip: Type in “OMG” when you are chatting, watch your avatar’s head spin!

CO-OP Actions
There are tons of actions that you can also perform as you interact with new friends. When you’re just starting a conversation with someone, actions will help you really demonstrate how you’re feeling. You can use some of the actions to lively up the conversation and really connect, just like you would in real life. Here are some ideas.
A bear hug is a great icebreaker right?

If you’re on the go, there are so many ways that you can use actions to liven up your actions even on our Mobile app. Here are the basics, but you’re in charge of how you use them to make your connections, friendships, and relationships better as a result. Get creative, try new things – and remember…there is someone behind the avatar you interacting with….so play nice.
Step 1: Tap the smiley face near your chat box. Here you have a selection of actions you can perform.
Step 2: Tap the action you want to do! Maybe you want to applaud someone’s joke or bust a move in the middle of the conversation. Everyone in the chat will be notified you performed an action and probably compelled to respond with their very own. This is how the best conversations on IMVU get started!
But wait, it gets better! The more actions you trigger with your avatar, the more fun you’ll create. Next, we’ll show you how to perform actions with your friends.
