In the world of messaging applications, not everything is WhatsApp and Telegram. Currently on the market we can find other very valid applications that practically they fulfill the same functions as the two main ones that I mentioned above. Line, WeChat or Viber are messaging applications that are used mainly in some areas of the planet and that are having a hard time expanding to others. Viber, for example, may be the least known despite being one of the oldest in the market, it is used a lot in Arab countries, where WhatsApp or Telegram have not yet finished colonizing those territories.
Currently Viber has more than 750 million users worldwide. This messaging platform has gradually expanded its functions and currently allows us to make phone calls to landlines or mobile numbers, make video calls in HD quality, share files in GIF format, it also has stickers (although most are of payment)… Viber has just updated its application by adding new features that have long been available in Skype, such as the possibility of sending video messages of up to 30 seconds to our contacts, the possibility of mentioning in chats through the at sign or searching for content ...
This new update also offers us a redesign of the application showing some emoticons that have undergone a facelift, in addition to offering us a somewhat larger size than in the previous version. In addition, they have also taken the opportunity to expand the number of people who can participate in a group chat, raising the number up to 250 people.
