Great to see them so active on the ORM side of things too. just that I have looked at them - as there seems to be some hype around them at the moment - and still wondering do I really need another (potentially two) apps and accounts to do things I do anyway. Don't know whats stopping Skype (or even GTalk, which has voice calls too, at least in theory) from doing this. Viber does sound better than Skype for it's tight integration with the phone. I rarely SMS anyone with an Android phone anymore. I regularly have lengthy conversations with people who are sitting at their computers. with GTalk the person I'm talking to doesn't need to be on a phone. sounds just like GTalk, apart from maybe the easy sharing of audio and video, which I wouldn't miss. It is becoming very popular and once most people have it, there will be little need to send and pay for text messages any more."

The thing I find since using this, is that its almost more informal than sending a text, so you are more likely to actually communicate using it. It notifies you just like a text message, and you can even Update Your Status like you do on Facebook. Quicker, easier to use, you get delivery notifications, you can send photos, videos or audio really easily, all 100% completely free, anywhere in the world. WhatsApp: "Its better than text messaging. If you check out Zascar's blog post above, it does a great job of explaining the benefits. We will keep you posted.Īnyone here get on the Beta list? I'm dying to try it. For example, we are considering to implement a customized ringtone option, but we don’t have specific release date for this new feature. We are continuously developing new features and fixing bugs. The basic Viber service – Viber to Viber phone calls, and soon text messages – will ALWAYS be free.ĥ. At the same time, we are working on additional future premium services that will generate revenues.
For now, our focus is on adding platforms, adding features (such as text messages) and improving overall system performance. Viber uses about 0.25MB/min in + out, which is 0.5MB/min total. I suggest you try it out when it’s out, and decide for yourselfģ. Text Messaging will be included in our upcoming version 2.0 that will be released by the end of this month! about beta-testing, you can subscriber to be a beta-tester (hopefully it’s not full already) here: Ģ.
We officially announced that the Viber-for-Android version will be released in March, and we expect it to be ready towards the end of March.
