    I think the android version will send this app through the roof.

    The question above was what was the difference between viber and skype. For me the biggest difference is viber working off your phone number, and not having to pick a username and share that with yoru contacts. As soon as someone installs Viber I get notified, and I can see a list of viber users in my contacts (in the app).

    The text function will help too.

    Spot on dodge, especially with the texting this is now going to go bananas. Basically no need to pay for calls or texts etc between anyone you know who has a smartphone. Sweet!

    For anyone who thinks ‘but its just the same as skype – I don’t see why I should bother using it” – you are so so so so so so so wrong. Just download it now and give it a go, you can thank me later.

    All,

    Is there anyone in this thread for whom Viber crashed immediately after installing 2.0?

    If so, would be kind enough as to help us get logs from your iPhone and investigate the issue? Such logs would speed up handling the problem for the sake of all users worldwide.

    Thank you in advance,
    Viber.

    Looks good and a nice addition with the Messaging. Hopefully group messages and media attachment will come soon. Don't see this replacing whatsapp just yet.

    Does Viber have the ability to share location, or share contacts through text? They're two really neat features of WhatsApp!

    1. Viber can and should work with iPad on both 3G (if you have a SIM) and WiFi (if you don't, and use it only to connect to the internet).

    2. All the features you mentioned here (and planned for our next versions (including sending contact info by message)

    I cant seem to get calls to work on this over wifi or 3g, it keeps giving me the little red box with poor signal, although i can be heard by the other person. Anyone any ideas?

    1. Are both sides using the latest version on AppStore? (2.0.1)
    2. Any chance that any of the conversation's sides is behind a firewall/router?
    3. Both sides should try using Viber on a different WiFi network in order to maybe pinpoint the problem.

    Having the same problem - I can make and receive calls but can't hear the person on the other end and they can't hear me. Both sides are on the latest version of Viber.

    This happens whether I'm on WiFi or 3G or on the same or different WiFi networks :confused:

    Text messaging is working fine though

    1. For those of you who can't hear the other side - what devices are you using? Please provide me with both hardware version and iOS version.

    2. About the features you requested for our text messaging service - all these and more are planned in our upcoming versions (2.0.2 and 2.1). New features, such as sending images, will be implemented soon.

    There shouldn't be any problem...
    1. Are you behind a firewall or a router?
    2. Are you using Viber on WiFi or 3G?

    Have the problems been fixed now in 2.0.2, or are you still having connection troubles?
