If you have a Windows Phone device and use Viber regularly or even occasionally, you might realize that the app suffers from not having some of the features found in the Android and iOS versions. Most likely, you might not feel too happy about this, but worry not, Viber CEO Talmon Marco promises all that will soon be rectified.
In an interview with TrueTower.com, the Viber CEO said "most of the features of 3.0 should be on WP in the next 3 months. Hopefully sooner."
As a person who uses Viber now and again, knowing that key features are on the verge of crossing over to the Windows Phone 8 version gets me excited. It would be great if and when these features come along, everything goes smoothly without any bugs or hiccups.
Viber's description:
"Viber lets everyone in the world connect. Freely. More than 175 million Viber users call, text and send photos worldwide — for free. Viber is available for Windows Phone, Android, iPhone® and other smartphones. We are constantly introducing new features, platforms and possibilities. Viber is completely free with no advertising and we value your privacy.
Viber integrates with your phone to provide the best VoIP experience. It syncs with your contact list, automatically detecting which of your contacts already have Viber. Your phone number is your user ID, so you don't need a username and password.
