IMO is short for "In My Opinion. " It is usual to use it in informal chats, texting, and social media very often when you want to mark it that you are presenting a personal view rather than stating a fact. Usually it is used to make statements less strong or to avoid giving a blunt first impression. For example:

"IMO, this film is way better than the first one. "

"If the device doesn't work, you should try restarting it, IMO. "

Another very similar form is IMHO which means "In My Humble Opinion". It is also used for the same purpose but adding a touch of extra politeness.
