What is Whisper?
Got something private to say? Whisper allows users to chat 1-on-1 when in a chat room! The feature is available on the IMVU Classic (IMVU Client) and IMVU Mobile (Android) for VIP users. For more information on the Whisper feature, click here!
Whisper is an exclusive VIP feature. VIPs can Whisper to anyone while in Chat. Any user can Whisper back if they receive a Whisper, but non-VIPs cannot initiate a Whisper unless they have a VIP subscription. Not a VIP yet? Join today to get full access to Whisper.
How do I send a Whisper?
STEP 1. In the chat window, hover over the avatar name of your intended recipient.
STEP 2. Click Whisper.
STEP 3. Type your message then hit Send. Note the “Whispering To [Recipient]” notice to the left of the message field. The message will now only be visible to the intended recipient.
Note that you need to manually exit Whisper mode before being able to send messages to the general chat again.
