What you need

A computer with Windows, macOS or Linux, an internet connection and accounts in the messengers you use. Your phone is needed only to confirm sign-in to the messengers themselves, for example with a QR code.

You do not have to register in Centrio to start: you can use it without an account.

Step 1. Download the app

Open the download page, centrio.me/download, and choose the version for your system. Download only from the official site: that way you get the current version and avoid fakes.

Run the downloaded file and follow the installer prompts. It usually takes less than a minute.

Step 2. First launch and adding messengers

  1. Launch Centrio. On the first screen you can pick a language and sign in or skip it.
  2. Click "+" in the sidebar and choose a service from the catalog: Telegram, WhatsApp, MAX, email and more.
  3. Sign in to each service the usual way, for example with a QR code. The sign-in is kept.

Each service opens in its own tab with an isolated session.

Step 3. Make it yours

  • Sort services into folders: work, family, clients.
  • Turn on notifications and check that they arrive.
  • Switch on the dark theme if you prefer it.
  • Set a PIN code to keep others out.

If notifications do not arrive, the article on what to check will help.

The free plan and Pro

The free plan includes up to 3 services with no time limit. If you need more services, split screen, the built-in VPN per tab and other features, you can switch on 14 days of Pro for free in the app, without a card. Then decide whether you need Pro.

The app updates itself: new versions download in the background and apply on restart.
