Viber wasn’t able to offer user-friendly features which led to its downfall. A recent update has added end-to-end encryption but that too came almost months after months behind Whatsapp which speaks for itself. In this app, there is a sticker store where you can find the latest stickers according to your mood and the current situation of your chatting. When you install this application on your android device, this application asks you to let it access your contact list. Through this, this application selects contacts with Viber installed on their devices. Setting up Viber is pretty straightforward on Android Smartphones. Just enter your phone number and a user name on the prompt screen after downloading the app. It does the rest and registers the user with his/her mobile number. Like most messaging services, Viber also confirms your account by sending a text message to your phone.Īfter this process, the app asks for a few permissions such as accessing your phone book along with media and gallery permissions. In order to work properly and sync with your device and search for contacts that are already on Viber, the app requires these permissions.Ī large blue plus button, for example, pulls up a list of all your contacts that use Viber so you can quickly start a new one-on-one or group message. Your current chats are shown in the far left tab.

Interestingly, if you make a call to another Viber user, this also creates an entry in the Chats tab. Complete call information, including whether the call was incoming or outgoing, is in the far right Calls tab.

The center tab, Contacts, mirrors your phone’s contacts.
