Afterword
VKontakte does not have the “Page Guests” service. Not everyone may like this type of control. Apps that claim to be able to view guest information are actually misleading.
VKontakte has many useful functions: it turns out that you can make money transactions through messages without even knowing the details. Based on various groups, it is possible to create real online stores, and there is a personal mobile operator.
The support group is staffed by people, not robots, so you can easily get answers to all your questions.
All the best, with respect Dmitry M.

How to use the social network VKontakte. Let's look at the functionality!
In this article I will talk about how to communicate on VKontakte, search for acquaintances, relatives, add them as friends, as well as in general more detail about the functionality of VKontakte (VK).
To analyze the functionality of VKontakte, let’s mentally divide the page into 4 parts.
1 part.
There is a "Search" field here. When you click on this field, a cursor will appear and you can write the first and last name of the person you want to find.
Next is the “People” button. By clicking on it, you can view other people's accounts and also search for them.
Then there is the “Communities” button. This functional button shows large VKontakte communities, divided into categories.
The next VKontakte functionality button is “Games”. Here are games that you can play directly on VK. They are also divided into categories.
Next is the “Music” button. When you click on it, a window will appear where popular audio recordings will be shown. Also, by searching, you can find the audio recording you want to listen to, and then add it by clicking on the plus sign.
The next button is Help. There you can find answers to some of your questions about the functionality of VKontakte and anything else.
And the last button is Logout. If you click on this button, you will be logged out of your VKontakte account and will not be able to use social media. network.
Part 2.
The first button of this part of the VKontakte functionality is “My Page”. Let's say you visited a page of some user. To get back to your page you need to press this button. Next to it is the “edit” button, which will allow you to change information about yourself.
The second button is “My friends”. Suppose you found your relative, friend, classmate on VKontakte. In order not to lose contact with him in the future, to communicate with him, and also to look at the photos that he uploaded, videos, etc. you need to add him as a “friend”. When you already have friends, when you click on this VKontakte functionality button, they will be displayed for you.
The next button is “My Photos”. By clicking on this button, you can view your photos and albums.
“My Videos” button. By clicking on this button, a menu will open with the items “Catalogue”, “My videos”, “Albums”. Popular videos will be displayed in the catalog, your videos will be displayed in my videos, and albums you have created for the videos you have uploaded will be displayed in albums.
Next is the button – “My audio recordings”. This VKontakte functionality button also opens audio.
Then comes the “My Messages” button. Dialogs with users will be displayed there.
"My Groups" button. You can find the interest group you need or create your own.
"My News" button. By clicking on this button, you will see new posts from groups you are subscribed to, news from friends (their new photos, posts).
The next button is “My Answers”. In this section of VKontakte functionality you will see friendship requests, acceptance of friendship, likes, comments on your photos, posts, comments, videos.
The last button is “My Settings”. There you can set up your account and some VKontakte functionality.
Part 3.
This part of the VKontakte functionality displays your first and last name, avatar, and the “Edit Page” button (it’s also located on the “My Page”). You will also see the completion percentage of your page and can select a specific category and fill it out. When you have everything filled out, this part will also display the gifts that will be given to you (they are paid), your friends, videos and audio recordings, and the communities in which you are a member.
Part 4
Also, first and last name first. Next you can put the status. Then comes information about you and your photos.
And the most important part of the functionality is the VKontakte wall. It is used mainly so that you save information that is interesting to you, so that your friends congratulate you on the holidays.
The last thing I would like to consider from the VKontakte functionality in this article is how to add as a friend and write a message. Let's say you find a person and are already on his page. To add him as a friend, you need to click the “Add as a friend” button and send a message “Write a message”.
Main photo VKontakte
The main VKontakte profile photo creates an impression of you. If in life you are greeted by your clothes, then here you are judged by your photo. The more attractive you are, the more respect and desire to be friends with you and do business with you.
To make your photo as large as possible, you can prepare a photo of the required size in advance - length 200 pixels, width 300 pixels. These are the maximum sizes available to you for uploading your photo. Let's see what it looks like. If you don't have a photo yet, click here:

When there was an old version of the VKontakte website, the dimensions of the main photo were different - 200X500. However, the information about this has not yet been updated. Therefore, much of the information on the contact website itself is not relevant.

Quick search for “VKontakte” in the application
To enable search, users of the official mobile application simply need to go to the appropriate tab with a magnifying glass icon at the bottom. Next, in the top search bar you need to start typing the required query. Matching results will be displayed immediately after you start typing. In this case, the user can switch between different tabs to, for example, search only by people, or by communities or by music. To go to the profile of a person who was found by such a quick search, you just need to click on his page in the general list of suitable people.
Multimedia
VKontakte is a site not only for communication, but also for spending pleasant free time. This fact was taken into account by the developers of VK for Android smartphones and is reflected in the functionality of the application.
The mobile client allows you to add photos, create albums and view photos of other users. As for video files, the application allows you to download videos from other sites, add videos from the device’s memory or those shot immediately before sending.
VKontakte for the Android operating system provides a chance for music lovers to enjoy their favorite compositions directly in the application. By adding your favorite songs to the My Audio Recordings album, you can listen to them using the integrated player.
Additionally, using the player buttons, tracks are played in random order, put on repeat, and also broadcast to the user’s page as a status. Options will help you find other songs by the artist, lyrics, delete a track or send to a friend.
