Viber For Android V 5.0 Adds Video Calls, A New Design And More

Viber For Android

Together with WhatsApp, Viber is one of the most popular instant messaging networks and VoIP (Voice over IP) calls.

Viber for Android has just been updated to version 5.0.0.4083, and we can say that this update is an important one, because it adds video calls from devices with Android 4.0 or later.

Video telephony services were available until now only for Viber users that used the desktop version of the application, but developers have improved the video compression algorithms in order to provide a good experience for mobile users as well. Thus, Viber enters now in direct competition with Skype and FaceTime, the most popular V2oIP(Voice and Video Over Internet Protocol) services.

Moreover, the new Viber allows us to transfer video calls from a mobile device to the desktop and vice versa as it was possible before for audio conversations, and also now we can add our friends easily entering their Viber numbers or scanning their QR (Quick Response) code.

Plus the new Viber comes with a new and attractive design.

The version 5.0 of the Viber app for Android can be downloaded from Google Play Store on devices with Android 2.3 or later, but the video calls feature will work only on devices with Android 4.0 and later.
