Recently I have bought an iPhone 7 mobile phone and I am very glad of its features and performance. I installed the Viber application and this is a very useful application for me. Now I will describe the features of this particular application, how I use it and why this is a handy mobile application for me.
In fact, Viber is a kind of platform that is able to transmit messages instantly to another end where the similar app is being used. Besides, the app is able to transmit images, audios or even videos as well. So, globally a wide range of people use this app for instant messaging. As a direct result, it has become a popular communication app for smartphone users. The platform has been developed by Viber Media, an Israel-based company. Now the app is available for several mobile operating systems like iOS for Apple, Android, BlackBerry OS, Windows Phone and others. The number of registered users is on increase for this app.
Using Viber is very easy and efficient. There are no complexities of the installation process. At first, the smartphone users are to download the app on their device from their respective app sources like iTunes App Store or Google Play store. Then they are to install the app on the device and set it up. During the installation process, they are to allow the app to use some of the features of the phone like access to the phonebook or photos etc. Besides, the app may ask for permission on some other specific issues based on your device features. Once the installation is done, one can start using the app. But without an active internet connection, the app will not work. The users would not be able to send or receive any messages or notifications. So, an active internet connection is required to use Viber.
I am glad about this app. It has helped me greatly to cut my phone call costs. In fact, communication through the app is for free. Only some megabytes are used to send or receive the messages. So, I do not need to pay any extra charge for making a call on Viber. Besides, it is easier to send images using this app. Using the smartphone, any Viber user can send images from the device’s image library. The app comes with another special feature using which I can create a group with the other users and may have chats with them where I can share my latest images. The use of emoticons is also another feature that is benefiting me to express my feelings.
In this age of globalisation, using the internet-based apps to communicate is the best way, in my opinion, and experience. As a student, often I need to share my notes with my buddies and it helps me in sharing the notes and lessons in image formats. Besides, the cost is quite low. Additionally, I am able to share my other important events using the images and emoticons. But such facilities are still unavailable with the ordinary telecommunication system. Though they are present in some mobile platforms, they are available on a limited scale which cannot express the entire emotional state. Besides, Viber has a number of functionalities and the users can also buy credits to make voice calls. The user interface is attractive and allows me to have my image with my contact details. I prefer this application for all the advantages it offers.
