Chat Configuration
You are worried that anyone can send you, your family, or your group unwanted texts or pics. With impact, you have full control over who gets to access you. Requestors need to get the keyword from you to contact. Impact solicits no phone numbers. Add your name and handle in the settings to start texting. Request new contacts and create flexible groups.

Chat (Edit/Reply)
Edit your past texts or create new replies without creating multiple copies by selecting the edit icon.

Chat (Audio or video)
Select the contact (yes, it can be a group) to initiate a call. If you select no video, the call becomes audio-only. You can preview the video. On a group video call, you can select a participant to view by clicking their video image. Clicking again will show videos of all the participants in the group call.
