In March 4th, media found that the reply to'QQ software was cancelled in the Tencent customer service WeChat official account, which can get the message about QQ cancellation: the QQ number cancellation function will be implemented in QQ7.9.9 and above, and can meet the cancellation conditions described in the page, and can be applied for cancellation. As a social software that accompanies the post-80s and 90s generation, will you log off?
In March last year, Tencent tested the QQ account cancellation function in gray scale, but the service was quickly removed from the shelves. At that time, Tencent said that "in order to give users a better experience, it temporarily offline the function, and will go online again after further optimizing the experience.".
Shortly after QQ ushered in its 20-year-old birthday, Tencent once again released a message to cancel the QQ function. In March 4th, the daily economic news reporter found that the Tencent's customer service WeChat official account was replied to the cancellation of'QQ software, which could get the message about the cancellation of QQ.
According to Tencent's customer service reply, QQ number cancellation function will be implemented in qq7.9.9 and above. At that time, you can apply for cancellation if you meet the cancellation conditions. According to app Bao, the current Android version of QQ is 7.9.8, and the update time is January 30, 2019. That is to say, it is not far from Tencent QQ to officially launch the number cancellation function.
It should be noted that once the QQ account is recovered, all information will be cleared, including but not limited to the QQ coin, TenPay balance, financial products and other virtual properties, and the service agreement related to QQ account will also be terminated.
Think about that year, full of memory, would you write off?
At the beginning of 2018, the Ministry of industry and information technology said that according to the relevant provisions: "after the users terminate the use of telecommunication services or Internet information services, telecom business operators and Internet information service providers should stop collecting and using users' personal information and provide users with services to cancel their numbers or account numbers. "This means that almost all websites and apps have to provide account cancellation services.
In fact, micro-blog, Taobao, Alipay, WeChat and so on have all provided the function of logoff account. QQ has not launched the service since its inception. Only in 2018 did grayscale test the QQ account cancellation function, but it soon went off.
QQ of course, in order to prevent users from losing their password, QQ will not be able to recover their own password. If users want to cancel their accounts, they can wait for Tencent to recycle them.
Tencent has its own rules for number recycling: for ordinary numbers, if you do not log in 3 days after registration, the number may be recycled; if you log in within 24 hours after registration, if you do not log in for 45 days, the number may be recycled; if you do not log in for 3 months, the number may be recycled; if you are a QQ smart number, the QQ number will be recycled if you do not renew the membership business for more than 90 days.
In order to speed up the recovery of QQ, some people even published strategies on how to log off QQ numbers on the Internet, such as deleting all friends, quitting all groups, closing QQ space, unbinding mobile phone numbers, etc., but it's not clear whether it has any effect.
Although Tencent QQ is about to launch account cancellation function, not everyone is so eager to cancel QQ number.
Although the post-80s and post-90s have moved from QQ to wechat, QQ is also a diary full of memories for them, such as the vigorous photos of youth in the space photo album and the diary of "saying sorrow for new words" in QQ space. These are all youth memorial places. A netizen said good: "QQ can be cancelled, but those memories are holding youth, which can be said to put on, said scattered scattered. '
Who asked, QQ is old, still can eat?
Speaking of QQ, we have to say that its predecessor qicq, launched in 1999, is China's first peer-to-peer, one to many chat software, which was renamed QQ in 2000. Although qicq after the advent of explosive user growth, but Tencent has not found a good profit model. At that time, in order to feed OICQ, which was growing rapidly, Ma Huateng had to work around to help enterprises design web pages.
Later, Tencent became a partner of "mobile dreamnet". It was only in 2001 that Tencent made a profit and successfully listed in Hong Kong in 2004.
In 2006, in the case of unsuccessful cooperation with operators, Tencent launched two major products: super qq and mobile QQ. Tencent also won the tickets in the era of smart phones. In the following years, relying on QQ, Tencent has developed mobile QQ game hall, mobile Tencent network, mobile browser, mobile phone security housekeeper and other products, spanning the game, media, security and other fields, showing the strong liquidity of QQ.
However, in the past two years, QQ has repeatedly "slimmed down". QQ home, QQ pets, friend network, webqq and other products that have accompanied users for many years have stopped operating. Coupled with the rise of wechat, people once questioned whether QQ has become old.
In recent years, Tencent QQ team also intends to cater to young users and create a younger brand image of QQ. By opening QQ, users can see many social + content products for young users, such as friends' micro vision, Penguin e-sports, interest tribe, now live broadcast, QQ watch point, etc. Among them, the number of daily active users of QQ sites as of September 2018 has exceeded 100 million, and the proportion of those after 95 is close to 70%.
Although wechat users have already surpassed QQ, QQ still plays an important role in Tencent's financial reports. According to Tencent's financial report in the third quarter of 2018, the monthly active account of QQ intelligent terminal increased by 6.9% to 697.9 million. The monthly active accounts and daily active accounts of users aged 21 or below recorded year-on-year and month on month growth, and the monthly active accounts of young users increased by 16% year-on-year.
Facts tell us that QQ is still one of the most popular social products for young people.
