(This app is not available for use, sorry!)

Most of us 25+ years and older were very familiar with AIM. Unfortunately, as with all great things, it came to an end (or, at least very close to an end).

The popularity of AIM saw a sudden decrease around 2009 after Gmail's Google Chat service released, along with text messaging and social networking sites. Still, I hung on to my AIM 5.9 account and let it idle 24/7 up until about 2015. In early 2016, I received a message, after logging on randomly, that my version of AIM would no longer work after March 15.

So, in a bout of nostalgia-driven inspiration, I had the idea to recapture this time in my life by creating a similar app, AONOS. Go ahead and download it if you're on Android. If there's any demand, which, I'm sure there won't be, I can publish this on the App Store for iOS, given I built it using Ionic 2.
