Talkonaut Setup

If you want access to the guild-wide Jabber chat server on the go with your iOS device, Talkonaut offers a reasonable set of features like chat notifications, auto-away, screen orientation lock, chat log, time-stamp, etc.

This guide was made using Talkonaut 5.91 for iPhone but other versions should be similar.

Note: These instructions may be slightly different depending on the iOS device you are using. If you find a difference or if the app updates and these notes or screens aren't accurate feel free to add notes here to the wiki or let someone know in Jabber (Max can help) and we'll get it updated.

1. Launch Talkonaut, select Jabber as your account type and then enter your full username and password. Click Sign In.

4. Click Join Conference to enter the chat room name details:

   

5. Click More for additional options and enter the appropriate details, then click Join when finished.
   1. Room: the chat room name you want to enter

   4. Password: leave blank unless you're entering a password protected room
