We are looking for PC-based Vocal Chat alternatives to communicate with people where Skype is blocked.

Someone suggested IMO which looks promising

> **[Imo](https://imo.en.softonic.com/)**
>
> A free communication app for everyone

Does anyone have any experience with it? Are there any particular vulnerabilities to it re viruses & malware?
