功能介紹
國際版QQ已推出英、法、日、德、韓、西班牙六個語言版本。它既充分考慮了外籍用戶的使用習慣，也將傳統中文QQ的群功能，討論組，自定義皮膚，界面管理器等細節融入其中。在功能設定上，通過不斷了解用戶需求，從多層面多角度探索和滿足外籍用戶的商務、旅遊、生活等需要，陸續推出了翻譯、套用盒子，網址導航，交友平台等功能，力圖使中外用戶利用QQ，通過日常溝通輕鬆了解國內外文化和獲得自己想要的信息。
翻譯功能
沒有語言障礙！內嵌實時翻譯，使您能夠使用超過50種語言進行聊天。
讓世界了解 中國City Weekend(城市周刊)是一本提供給在中國生活與工作的外國人閱讀的雜誌，主要包含了北京、上海、廣州三個城市的工作生活等資訊新聞。騰訊將其集成到了QQ國際版中，讓國外用戶可以輕鬆的獲取相關的資訊內容，更好的了解中國。QQ國際版的主界面與QQ國內版的相差不大，只是在側邊欄中多了幾個工具，快速啟動欄里的工具也有不同。QQ國際版同樣支持快捷的更換皮膚操作，並自帶了多款與QQ國內版不同的皮膚界面。QQ國際版在登入後同樣會默認顯示“迷你首頁（我的資訊）”，與QQ國內版不同的是，QQ國際版的“迷你首頁”里的資訊內容全都是英文版的，而且資訊內容也是給國外用戶特別定製的。相關資訊面板分別是“QQ International（QQ國際版相關內容）”、“ChinaDaily（中國新聞相關內容）”、“QQi Personals（QQi交友）”、“City Weekend（城市周刊）”、“eChinaCities（中國城市資訊）”、“Ctrip（攜程網）”。豐富的資訊內容使得這個迷你首頁也較為實用起來，與QQ國內版迷你首頁不同的是，QQ國際版用戶可以在迷你首頁右下角選擇在5天內不自動彈出迷你首頁。QQ國際版的聊天對話框與QQ國內版的差不多，視頻/音頻聊天、檔案傳輸（離線傳輸）、遠程協助、傳送圖片、QQ表情等實用聊天功能一應俱全，最大的不同在於QQ國際版的聊天對話框中沒有任何廣告，這不知道是騰訊還沒打算對QQ國際版進行“招商引資”，還是騰訊對外國用戶特別照顧。 而QQ國際版的群聊視窗精簡了多少功能，只保留了基本的群設定按鈕，實用的群共享、群相冊等功能都沒有加入。QQ國際版的迷你資料卡中只保留了用戶暱稱、QQ號碼、個性簽名、級別的信息，好友印象及某些網友很喜歡的QQ服務圖示則都沒有顯示。
和外國人聊天，難免會遇上不認識的外文，而外國人和你聊天也難免遇上不認識的中文，這時，翻譯工具作為溝通的橋樑就顯得格外重要了。QQ國際版自帶了3款不同的翻譯工具，分別是 QQ自己提供的“QQ Translator”工具、WordReference提供的“Dictionaries”工具、Nciku提供的“手寫翻譯”工具，有了這些翻譯工具的幫忙，與外國人溝通起來也就會更順暢一些。
英文版獨立聊天群面板
QQ國際版的側邊欄中有個獨立的“Groups”工具，點擊進去裡邊是各種英文分類的QQ聊天群，默認劃分為了（個人、夜生活、旅行、商業、語言、團體、音樂）這七大分類，各分類下是網友們所建立的聊天群。用戶需要加入的話，只需要點擊各聊天群下邊的“Join now”按鈕，然後就可以像加入普通群那樣提交入群申請了。
這個“Groups”工具只是把群分類功能整合到了QQ面板中，各個英文聊天群其實也可以在QQ國內版的群搜尋中查找到。不過這樣的分類方法確實方便了用戶查找並加入自己感興趣的群中參與討論。
簡化版交友網站
茫茫網海中如何找到一個與自己趣味相投的網友呢？許多網友選擇了在各種各樣的交友網站中尋找。QQ國際版自帶了一個QQi交友工具，用戶可以根據“語言、居住地、年齡、性別”這幾個條件來篩選查找適合自己的網友，可惜的是搜尋條件中沒有“興趣 愛好”等的搜尋條件。
世界時鐘
不用計算 國際時間來幫忙
與國外的網友聊天，可要注意一下他們所在的時區，可別犯了人家那邊是晚上，你卻和他說“Good morning”的尷尬。QQ國際版為用戶提供了世界時鐘，用戶可以自由定義添加任意國家或者地區的時鐘顯示，方便用戶查看與對照世界各地不同城市或地區的準確時間，這樣就不必總是心算著對方那邊是啥時辰了。
“股市”功能
美股 港股實時知
QQ國際版還為用戶提供了“股市”功能，用戶可以實時查看滬深、港股及美股的實時行情，非常方便炒股人士。
反饋工具
QQ國際版還帶有一個反饋工具（feedback）用戶可以通過它快速的向騰訊反饋使用QQ國際版所遇到的問題。
其它
此外，QQ國際版還提供了許多附加功能模組，用戶可以在界面管理器（UI Manger）中自行添加或刪除功能模組，這裡就不一一介紹了。留意到其中還有日文的功能模組，可惜筆者不懂日文。

VOIP功能
2014年7月又進行了比較大的功能更新，引入了 VoIP 通話功能，手機版 QQ International（iOS/Android）用戶，可以直接撥打全球的手機號碼和固定電話，但僅限于海外（IP 地址）用戶
手機版 QQ International 的 VoIP 電話功能並不是免費的，而是提供一定時間的免費通話，隨後就需要進行充值付費了，但整體核算下來，比打國際長途划算不少。除了多國語言翻譯、VoIp 通過功能外，QQ International 的整個設計風格更加簡潔，也去掉了很多所謂的 VIP 功能，如不支持貼圖表情、不支持遊戲和閱讀，也沒有引入服務中心。
