Viber Editor's Review
The free calls over the internet became more and more popular. And
while there are plenty of programs that allows you to do so, it's quite
hard to choose. But of course, you go for the most featured and light
program that you can find. That's what I like the most about Viber.
First
of all, it's all cross platform. I know, it's not the only one who has
multiple platform support, but its features are making Viber a complete
fast and free communication app. It's fast, because it's light, simple
and efficient. While other programs offer you this and that function,
Viber developers managed to get most of the features, well, the most
useful ones, into one program. So, you have high quality voice calls,
free text (even group text), photo messages and location-sharing with
Viber users. Nothing of these requires registration. The application
will detect automatically your contacts who are using Viber, and is
working great on 3G connection or wifi without major differences.
Anyway, be careful because the usage of 3G will use your data plan and
can generate extra costs.
As I mentioned before, it's a cross
platform software. So, except for linux, you can have Viber on almost
any device using Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android, Windows Phone,
BlackBerry, Nokia (Symbian) and Samsung Bada.
I was testing the
Windows and Android versions. Well, I wanted to check the Video Call
feature, which so far is a beta feature, between these platforms. On
Windows I have the feature, marked as beta, but on Android is not. So, I
can make a voice call between these platforms, but so far, the Video
call feature doesn't seem to be available on the mobile device. Location
sharing is also a bit tricky. You only have a small purple arrow that
will share your location with the person you are texting, if you
activate the arrow. You can open the location in Maps, and let your GPS
guide you to meet. Available on mobile device only.
If you want
to install the windows version, you must first activate Viber on a
mobile device, because Viber will use your telephone number as an
identifier for the desktop version of the program. By using the desktop
version of Viber you will get the advantage of getting all your viber
contacts from your phone instantly on your desktop version.
App Pro's: It's light, efficient, group text, location sharing and has a very good voice quality over 3G connection
App Con's: Would be great to have all the features available on all platforms.
Conclusion:
The application is great for free calls. We all know how expensive the
calls/messages with other countries are, so, it's a good and efficient
way to talk free with all your friends from all over the world.
