We are constantly finding ways to make IMVU as easy to run as possible. Below are the recommended minimum system requirements in order for IMVU to run properly on your computer:


Windows Operating System

  • Windows 7 SP 1 or later

  • 1 GHz Processor

  • 512 MB RAM

  • Intel GMA 950 video card or better*

  • 2 GB free disk space

  • Consistent Internet connection


*Your graphics chip should be able to support at least OpenGL 2.0 in order to run IMVU Desktop, Web, or Studio. If you have an older chip (like HD3000), you may be able to download an OpenGL driver appropriate for your system.


Mac Operating System

  • 2 GB RAM

  • Intel Core 2 Duo

  • Intel GMA 950 video card or better

  • Basically, if you have a Mac Mini or later, you should be set 

  • For your iDevice, download our IMVU Mobile app from iTunes

  • Constant Broadband Internet connection


Note: Mojave should run IMVU Classic Mac Client. macOS 10.14 Mojave (10.14) was the last version of macOS to support 32-bit applications, and Apple dropped support for it in October 2021. Starting with macOS 10.15 Catalina in 2019, macOS no longer supports 32-bit software and plug-ins. However, for many users, Catalina blocks apps that they've relied on for years, especially games that developers have not updated to support 64-bit executables.



IMVU Mobile

  • For Android: Android 10 and above

  • For iOS: iOS 15 and above. Tested to work with A8X Processors and above.
