Viber was one of the first apps to make it possible for people to send texts and place audio/video calls over the internet without having to pay a single dime to their network carrier. This is why Viber is now used by millions of people from all over the world.
Another important reason behind Viber’s success is the fact that the developers who are in charge of the app are constantly looking for new ways to improve the performances and the overall user experience that the app offers.
The way that they are doing that is by releasing a steady stream of updates that are being rolled out via OTA (over the air) channels and a new one has just been released.
