User Reviews

Users report recurring reliability problems on iOS: frequent account blocks and activation/verification issues with slow or unhelpful support; widespread spam and unsolicited groups with poor reporting and deletion options; intrusive in-app ads; inconsistent calling (blocked numbers, misrouting, or paid plans not working); and media/login problems (photos/voice messages failing to load, QR verification failures). Some reviews still praise stickers or see it as useful for official communications, but these persistent issues drive many to seek alternatives.
Pros
  • Stickers are a noted feature that some users enjoy.
  • Useful for official communications (an email-like use-case).
  • Some users express overall positive sentiment (e.g., 'Viber is good').
  • Historically popular in some regions (e.g., Philippines).
Cons
  • Frequent account blocking and activation/verification issues with slow or unhelpful support.
  • Widespread spam and unsolicited groups with poor reporting and deletion options.
  • Intrusive in-app advertising and promotion, including paid upgrades not addressing core issues.
  • Inconsistent calling functionality, including blocked numbers, misrouting, or calls not working with paid plans.
  • Media and login reliability problems, such as photos/voice messages failing to load and QR/code verification failures.

The activation process is terrible

Have been using Viber for 1.5 years since Skype unfortunately shut down. Was good for 6 months but now is unreliable and won’t ring cell phones and land lines I use to call. I’ll be looking for another substitute that I can count on. It’s a shame….
