Pico provides its users a customizable shortcut to open their favorite chat app. The feature is accessible through the Pico menu under "Open Web Chat" (The title will be updated to reflect the app's name in a future update)

If you are a Chat app developer and your app supports a [custom URL scheme](https://www.hackingwithswift.com/example-code/system/how-to-make-your-app-open-with-a-custom-url-scheme?t) to open the app (e.g. `apollo://` or `bolt://`, send me a DM on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/ronaldmannak) and I'll add your app in the next release.
