Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for implementing communication of stand-alone software applications. In one aspect, a method for implementing communication of stand-along software applications comprises: establishing an instant communication connection between a first user device and a second user device by a first instant communication client on the first user device and a second instant communication client on the second user device, the first user device and the second user device being remote from each other; and communicating, by a first stand-alone software application on the first user device, with a second stand-alone software application on the second user device via the instant communication connection.
