### "A Reliable Messaging App with Room for Improvement"

April 16, 2025

5.0

t’s a reliable platform for messaging and voice/video calls, especially when connecting with friends and family internationally. The end-to-end encryption adds a layer of security, which I appreciate. I also liked features like group chats, sticker packs, and the ability to make international calls to non-Viber numbers

Pros

it is free application for all user, group and other small business use

Cons

While the core messaging and calling features are useful, the app sometimes felt cluttered and not as intuitive compared to other messaging platforms.

[Telegram](https://www.capterra.com/p/180347/Telegram/)

I switched from Telegram to Viber mainly for its stronger focus on privacy and security. While Telegram offers great features, I found that Viber’s end-to-end encryption for both messages and calls provided an extra layer of protection that I valued more for personal and professional communications.

### "Essential app for business with proper sequrity "

September 19, 2024

5.0

As a free communication tools, quality of Viber is very higher than other software. Calling , chatting feature is very updated and easy to use. Besides we feel quality of communication during calls is loud and clear. We can make a group and follow up activities easily in Viber.

Pros

For personal and professional use , Viber is a interesting tool, I can easily communicate with co worker and share files and do conversation with maximum privacy. For considering friends who stays abroad ,normally I use Viber to contact them, it came free for me. Quality of video and audio call most of the time is very good.

Cons

Right now I don't have any complain about it, most of the problem they continuously updating, last time we face bad network during calling, but last couple of month , I didn't experience it.

### "Intrusive ads and obnoxious ringtones - NO GO"

March 8, 2026

1.0

Definitely not recommend it. Just use one of the many other free messaging apps that don't bombard your nervous system with ads & obnoxious ringtones

Pros

That you can edit messages indefinitely after sending them. The emoticons used to be nice until they imposed a new set of emoticons on you which are very generic and ugly, and to go to the old ones you have to go out of your way

Cons

The ads on the Windows PC version at least are extremely intrusive. This alone makes this app unusable for me. Even worse is that the ringtone when somebody calls on Viber is very obnoxious and they didn't think to make this as a setting that you could turn on and off. Deleting the wave file doesn't help as the app just recreates it once it updates itself (again the user has no way to deny those auto updates which is once again rubbish software writing)

### "Easy and Reliable for Staying Connected"

March 27, 2026

4.0

Overall, my experience with Viber has been positive. It’s reliable for messaging and calling, especially with friends and family abroad. While there are occasional issues with notifications or call quality it’s a convenient and easy-to-use app for staying connected.

Pros

Viber is great for staying connected with friends, family and colleagues especially internationally. I love its free messaging and calls, fun stickers and easy-to-use group chat features. The app works smoothly on both mobile and desktop.

Cons

Sometimes Viber can feel a bit cluttered with too many notifications, and the call quality isn’t always consistent. Some features, like backup and media management, could be more straightforward.

### "A Secure and Versatile Messaging Experience with Viber"

February 20, 2026

5.0

Overall, using Viber is a secure and versatile messaging experience for me. Viber is a reliable choice for everyday communication.

Pros

I like its end to end encryption for messages, making it secure and easy. Features like stickers, GIFs and hidden chats which lets me keep private conversations securely locked with a PIN.

Cons

What I like least about Viber is that it can sometimes use a lot of power and memory, especially when running in the background.

### "Honest Review for Viber"

September 1, 2024

5.0

Pros

I used Viber for my daily life for my work or for my personal. When I use Viber conversation, I can feel I have more safe for my privacy because of end to end encryption. If we don't want to see chat contact, we can use hidden chat feature. It is good. My Notes also helpful for daily tasks. And then video & audio call quality is perfect and then we can create own sticker and have a fun for me or others. The most I like is Viber caller ID feature.

Cons

No, I don't have. It is the best application that I have ever use. But , I want to suggest that I think It is better if my day or my stories features include.

5.0

In terms of comprehensiveness, the method presented, and the use that began many years ago with Viber, it is the best program in this category and quality, and I thank those who provided it to us, thank you very much.

Pros

What I liked most is the large number of users, and this indicates continuity, and continuity indicates the provision of greatness, and from here the genius of creation appears in this program. It has benefited everyone, especially those who have distances and circumstances that prevent them from meeting.

Cons

I see that it affects some devices with less capabilities, so please issue a second, lighter version suitable for these devices.
