How to use viber online
Millions of people chat on Viber for Desktop. Do you?
In today’s world, even though we are on our phones all the time, many of us spend hours every day on a computer be it at work, school, or home. We want to be able to do everything we usually do on our phones on our computer, without the need to check our phones every few minutes.
Viber for Desktop is just for that – an easy way to keep on chatting and stay connected throughout the day, without having to look away from your computer.
Read our top 5 reasons why you should get Viber for Desktop on your computer right now:
1. It’s always synced
All messages that you send and receive on Viber – whether you are on your computer or mobile phone – are continuously synced, so you will never miss a message, or have gaps in your chat.
Once you set up Viber for Desktop, you connect your phone in order to sync all your previous messages and contacts, so that you can carry on chatting from exactly the same place you left off.
2. It’s comfortable and easy to use
Sometimes it is just that much easier to use a big screen and proper keyboard to read and type your messages. That’s where Viber for Desktop really shines – you have your keyboard, mouse and big screen all there to make this chat easier, and therefore more fun.
Calling on a big screen has even more advantages – when you are on a call with someone and you want them to see what is on your screen, share your screen. For example, you are both going over a document, share your screen so that you can be sure you are talking about the same thing.
Make and receive calls, including Viber Out calls, directly from your computer, and if you want to change how you are chatting, you can transfer your call from your phone to your computer (or from your computer to your phone) without interrupting the flow.
There’s lots more you can do with Viber for Desktop. To get you started, check out these great hacks.
3. It’s secure
Viber for Desktop is totally private. Just like with Viber on your mobile phone, messages sent to or from Viber for Desktop are end-to-end encrypted by default, which means that only you and the person you are chatting with have the (automatic) keys needed to decrypt and understand the message.
Viber for Desktop was created as a standalone app, rather than a web application like other messaging apps, because it allows us to ensure tight privacy and security for the messages you send and calls you make from your computer.
We know some of you use Viber for Desktop on a shared computer. To help you keep your chats private, we introduce Viber-screen lock. When you need to leave your computer, and someone else may use it when you are away, simply lock Viber so that your messages and notifications are hidden from view until you come back and unlock it.
4. It saves you battery and data
You read that right. Whereas some apps need your phone to be on, and have access to the internet, and remain close to your computer to receive calls and messages, Viber doesn’t.
In fact, if you forgot your phone at home, and you have Viber for Desktop installed on your computer it will make sure you never miss a chat or call all day long.
This saves your phone battery because you aren’t relying on Viber on your phone, nor are you using up battery keeping your phone connected to the computer. You also save data because you don’t need to use your phone to download images, make calls, or send messages.
5. You can connect Viber to as many computers and tablets as you like
There is no limit to how many computers or tablets (including iPads) you connect your Viber to. You can connect Viber to your home computer, work computer, tablet, and all will sync seamlessly to every Viber chat.
Now go get Viber for Desktop

However, the advantage of the application is that all its features are created for ordinary people. Everyone can learn how to apply them in daily communication. We, for our part, will provide detailed instructions on how to use Viber and try to cover the main issues.

How to use viber - general information
Viber developers have created applications for phones, tablets, computers, laptops. In any of them you can chat, send photos, videos, call. nine0003
Data on all devices is synchronized, so that messenger clients have the opportunity to use any. In this case, not a single message from the correspondence will be lost.
However, for everything to be correct, the viber must be installed in accordance with a certain sequence:
- , regardless of which device you plan to use, at the first stage, install the program on a smartphone or tablet with a SIM card;
- register and activate an account; nine0016
- install the messenger on a PC, tablet;
- start synchronization.
This procedure is due to the fact that during registration the phone number is indicated, to which the activation code is sent.
On the phone
After the activation is completed, the messenger is ready for use.
The next step to take is to find the right subscribers. But even here the developers have foreseen everything.
Those people who are already in your phone's contact list and use viber will be added to the messenger automatically. You can find the one you need using the search option - the magnifying glass icon is located at the top of the screen. nine0003
Once you see the contact of the person you want to chat with, send them a message or call.
By the way, we know how to search for people by photo on the net. 18 services to help. Very cool!
These functions are conveniently distributed in the menu:
- chats. In this section you can chat with other viber users. Select the one you need, send a text, voice, photo or video message, sticker, set up a secret dialogue, call; nine0016
- calls. Through this section, you can call any viber user for free. If it's not on your menu, add it by entering your phone number or by scanning the QR code.
The possibilities of the messenger do not end there. In the "more" section, viber is configured. Here you can choose a background, set up privacy, backup, how to receive message notifications, add contacts, buy stickers.
On two phones
Viber can be run on two mobile phones. nine0003
There are two ways to do this:
- The application is registered to two phone numbers. In this case, the viber is not synchronized, and you communicate from two different accounts;
- when using one account, insert the SIM card into a new device, activate viber, return it to the old phone.
On the tablet - step-by-step recommendations
On the tablet on which the SIM card is installed, the mobile version of Viber is used. nine0003
In this case, the process is similar to phones:
- install and activate the messenger;
- Customize the application according to your wishes. Specify how you want to receive notifications, set up privacy, the ability to automatically download media messages, set the background;
- make calls, send messages, videos, photos, buy and send, create your own postcards.
If your tablet works without a SIM card, you must first install and register the messenger on your phone. nine0003
On a computer
The version of viber for PC differs from the mobile version in that it does not work without activating the program on a smartphone.
For its operation it is necessary:
- install, register the application on a mobile device;
- install PC version;
- enter registration data;
- start synchronization with mobile phone.
Data between devices will be synchronized manually only when you first start the application on your computer. In the future, the process will be automatic, and all correspondence will be identical. nine0003
The computer version menu is located at the top of the application and includes the following options:
- view dialogs, calls;
- conversations with the functions of creating a new, deleting, sending messages;
- calls with contact selection, search, dialing, video call;
- tools for setting language, notifications, privacy, saving media files;
- reference.
