Viber is one of the most popular messaging app that has evolved quite a bit since it was launched in 2010. For today, Viber doesn’t just have the usual features as any messaging app, it takes it even further with the stickers, emoticons and locations that allows users to have more functions as never before. Currently, there are more than 200 million Viber users located in over 193 countries. 200 million people have to be on to something, right?
We’ve put together 10 Viber app tips and tricks just to make you become a power user in no time.

  2. Tap on Smart Notifications to enable it.

  1. Enter any chat and swipe to the right of your device screen.
  2. It’ll bring all your active chat rooms and you can easily switch to a different chat room by tapping on your friend/group chat name.

    I do not even understand how I stopped up right here, however I
    believed this put up was once great. I do not recognise who you’re but definitely you’re going
    to a well-known blogger when you aren’t already. Cheers!
