Hi,
ReplyDeleteThis is a member of the Viber Development Team! :)
You will be pleased to know that Viber for Blackberry is just around the corner now.
We are in the last days of beta testing, and presently compiling reviews from our beta testers. We hope to close this stage by the end of this month, and then finally release Viber for BlackBerry [beta] to AppWorld for all to download!
Viber itself - the app and the service - is totally free, meaning we (Viber) don't charge anything from you.
If you have any question about Viber - please feel free to ask.
Thank you,
Viber Team

Are there so me major flaws with the testing? There has been some serious delay with the launch of the Viber app for BB. I can speak on behalf of over millions of BB users that us users are disappointed with the RIM folks for their incompetence. Please be realistic with deadlines or else cancel to prepare the app in the 1st place.
Delete_Regards, Robin

Viber for blackberry is just good for nothing, it does not make calls. I've whatsapp for other things. When can we expect the calling feature on viber for blackberry?
DeleteHopefully a few months.
DeleteWe're working on it as hard as we can :)
when the calls option released on BB .. will it be only msgs for the old models for bb or ALL BB models will have calls and msgs ?
Deleteplz reply me because i want to bring a new mobile ( Blackberry or Andriod ) ?
Hey Ahmad Hossam,
DeleteWe know that BB is the most preferred Smartphone for all of you, but unfortunately Viber have only SMS (Msgs) feature till now for all BB Devices, the viber team brings the calling feature in few months where Viber For Android have the Calling and Texting both features..So in our Opinion Buying a Android Phone instead of BB For using Viber is a Good Option..
Warm Regards

So do I !!! Why this delay? If RIM will continue like this, it will have the same destiny on Nokia
Deletei think tah there will be no viber for our blackberry phones :S
ReplyDeletewhy they didn't put any anouncment on the viber website ??????
ReplyDeleteCan anyone give me a specific release date for viber free calls I know viber is now available but when we can make free calls

Hello, I just wanted to confirm something. If I have a BIS instant messaging and email plan through my carrier (Rogers) but don't actually have a separate data plan I can still use viber in areas even where there is no wifi? Also, I have a sibling who wants to use it as well but her data plan is not very large, will it only use BIS or wifi if she has a blackberry thus keeping all of her data unused?
DeleteYes.
DeleteViber knows to utilize your BIS plan, and so even without a "normal" data plan (3G), Viber should still work just fine.
The Blackberry application is buggy - The application don't have option for alerts under the System Profile like whatsapp
ReplyDeleteHey Anony,
DeleteThanks for reviewing the Viber app for Blackberry, we might suggest you to please tell us all the other problems you facing with viber app on your Blackberry as the Viber guys also reading these comments and look forward after your suggestions.
Warm Regards

@Anonymous -
DeleteWhat exactly do you mean? We are not sure we fully understood your comment.
Please elaborate.
if it gonna take few months to make a free call so no need to works on it because every one is switchinng to iphone or samsung
Deletedoes the free calling works with thes bb service or only with wifi or 3G
DeleteWhen exactly wll the full viber version for bb be available !!! It wll be gr8 if done soon as we bb users r eagerly waiting for d full version. Hope its available soon. Thank you viber team for such a gr8 work.
DeleteViber on BB works no matter what connection you have to the internet. It can be either 3G or WiFi?
ReplyDeleteHello! Will the Viber work only if the wifi is on? How about we have BB Social service, will it work? I don't want to use the internet service of my network plan (globe) because it will be expensive.
ReplyDeletehi I am using Blackberry pearl 9105. I can sent and receive text through viber and also receiving images but having issue to sent images through viber.
ReplyDeletethere is a problem some ppl are facing, when they download viber and they activate an account when they choose sync contact it doesn't work... it happened to me too!

ReplyDeleteAbout our calling service on Blackberry: releasing the beta version with messaging only is only the first step. We are working around the clock to bring the VoIP feature to our fans, and we hope to complete it within the next few to several months. We'll keep you posted with news.
the only smart phone now with no free calls is blackberry,why that??!!! you will loose a lot of users because of this,whats the need for viber messaging and we have bbm,so the only need for viber is free calling,so please make it true very soooonnnnnnnn.....
Deletecan you please give us a date when viber free calls will be on blackberry,so i can know if i gonna buy a new phone from sumsung or iphone.
DeleteUnfortunately we still don't have specific dates. We're probably talking about a few months before VoIP is implemented into Viber for Blackberry.
ReplyDeleteWe'll keep our fans posted with news through our Facebook and Twitter pages :)
It's written (calls coming soon) on appworld since long time, you're losing your fans and I am gonna switch to iPhone because of that, so hurry up for the free calls !
DeleteI can't wait longer. We have whatsapp and bbm to send messages and to also send pictures, viber isn't special that way, we need free phone calls really fast and as soon as possible, if you don't do it fast, you'll really lose bb fans of viber and that's not the best thing, people are now switching fast to Apple and Samsung, and I'm one of them, I'm gonna switch to iPhone for free calls and of course, more apps. And it's written (free calls coming soon) on appworld since really long, it's a bit too long. Do free calls fast and soon please !!
ReplyDeleteThere are some internal limitations in Blackberry itself (the device and OS) that make is hard to implement VoIP - much more complex than other platforms, such as iOS and Android. However, our development team is working around the clock to overcome these obstacles and bring VoIP to the app, and to our fans :)
ReplyDeleteIf all goes as planned, we hope to complete and add the VoIP feature within the next few months. We'll keep you posted with news.
Very disappointed!!! few months could even be a decade.. thats for the BB free voice call!! Anyways i use viber via wifi and messaging takes time to send and receive, and sometimes it fails! Also, i always get messages even without connecting to a wifi spot, can i disable that? I only want it connected via wifi!!
ReplyDeleteReleasing the beta version with messaging only is only the first step. We are working around the clock to bring the VoIP feature to our fans, and we hope to complete it within the next few to several months. We'll keep you posted with news.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately this isn't possible at this stage yet. Viber stays available at all times, and that is because it is meant to be a communications app - you can regard it as a free "substitute" of your cellular service ;)
Meanwhile, we invite you to enter our Feature Request page and post your suggestion for this option there, or join an existing similar suggestion. The more people join on a request, the faster it will become reality :)

Viber is at present loosing it bb user intrest because we bb users r facing lots of problem with beta version like late msg receiving n many more. Its a problem to use a beta version when d rest iphone n android users r even using call facilty which we bb users lack from viber team. Its not a gud option to put a beta version for bb when d other have a full version with minimum problem. Hope tht viber team wll not forget free calling facility for bb users n provide a better viber app without msg dilevery n receiving problem n calling problem. Hope viber full version wll be available soon before its to late for viber team to maintain its users.
ReplyDeleteViber beta version is really bad !!! No facility for bb user provided by viber team. Problem r not look over by d viber team Faced by bb users with beta version n even no free calling facility in beta version. Its not a got option to launch a version which lost intrest for viber in bb users. Its better u launch a full version before u loose all ur bb users.
ReplyDeleteThat is not accurate - we have actually been given direct support to our users (just like right now) and are continuously working to fix the problems that are reported to us by our users.
ReplyDeleteMay we what problems specifically you are experiencing, because you haven't mentioned anything in particular.
Viber team, please help
ReplyDeleteI uninstalled my viber app from my bb8520 for it didn't upgrade. However, when I tried reinstalling, Viber is not in my list of uninstalled apps so I searched for it in app world. BUT THERE IS NO INSTALL, REINSTALL or the usual command buttons beside the Viber title:(
Have you tried the direct download link in our official HelpDesk? http://bit.ly/KSxfu1
DeleteAppreciate your help pls. Thanks
ReplyDeletehello guys
ReplyDeletethere is other APP support voip with BB
called tring me
Hey I have been working my butt off to finally get viber on my boyfriend blackberry and after working 3 hours on it we finally decided to see I'f the calling would work and end up not working im really disappointed in it the reason why is cuz I suppose the iPhone viber is free and u can call straight away, personally the BB fans will find it redicioislous that there are barely no apps to free call the sooner you release it the better it is for your team and for the bb user cuz it mind just be too late for BB users to switch to iPhone
ReplyDeleteI got a iPhone and u can get any sort of app u want without any hazard the bb app takes forever and there is always some hazard.
If you bring out viber free calls I bet your rating of viber will increase by millions of users using viber because viber is like the only app that would be able to free call!

ReplyDeleteWe all want it dead bad!! Can u please hurry up!
ReplyDeleteWe need viber!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCalling on viber is the key for loads of people!! :D
ReplyDeleteis it possoble for someone overseas with an iphone call a blackberry?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately Viber's calling feature is not yet available on Blackberry. However, messaging is possible between any 2 Viber users, no matter where they are in the world :)
Deletewhy dont you tell us a date about the new update of voip calls on bb?
ReplyDeleteBecause unfortunately we don't have such a date ourselves. We're working hard to complete the VoIP features in Viber for Blackberry as soon as possible, and we estimate that it would take about a few months.
DeleteCan't wait for VoIP feature on my BB. Hehe :) Go Viber

DeleteI've installed viber on my bold 9900 but when I enter my number n press 'approve'....it says that I need an internet connection even when I am already connected to a wfif! :(
@Mohammad Faizan Nafis -
DeleteIt sounds like the network you are connected to might be blocking Viber's traffic.
What country are you located in? Which cellular network?
Have you tested this on both 3G and WiFi?
Neither can we, and we're working hard on it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the cheering up! ;)
I'm really excited when it will come I can't wait hope it comes soon out!
ReplyDeleteAny news about viber how far are you guys getting? :D
ReplyDeleteNo concrete news yet unfortunately.
DeleteWe're still working around the clock, and as we promised - once we have news, we'll let you know :)
I already have viber ATM, so will BBappstore let me know when the callingupdate is done automaticly? Or will viber itself tell me orwhat????
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Mike.
Hi,
DeleteViber does not let you automatically know about updates unfortunately, but you can easily check AppWorld and see if there is a newer version available than yours.
Aside from that, we will be officially announcing the calling update, once it comes, in our Facebook and Twitter pages. You can welcome to join us there :)
I reallt cant wait untill the full version comes out !(:
ReplyDeleteDo you have any estimate on how many months it will be ? Like longer or shorted than 4 months ?
Currently we wouldn't want to guarantee a specific date, since sometimes in the technological world, these estimations tend you change, as you know.
DeleteIf all goes as planned, we plan to introduce the new version on BB with the calling feature within a few months.
In a few months what's a few months I can't wait any longer !!! Lol publish is next month!! :D hahahaha but seriously why does it take so long though?
ReplyDeleteIntegrating VoIP into Blackberry (especially the early OS versions and devices) is quite a technologically complex task. We are doing what we can, given our limited resources and manpower, to develop it as soon as we can.
DeleteRemember that we also have other big projects that require time and attention, like Viber on other platforms and devices :)
As we promised, once we have news we will publish it for our fans to see.
Ah ok thank you lets hope it comes out soon!
DeleteWhen does calling come on viber?
ReplyDeleteHopefully up to a few months.
DeleteWe're working on it hard these days.
How come does it take so long? Why is it really hard to have viber calling come out on the black berry and black berry curve ? What are you guys testing now then?

Dear Viber, it has been months since u said that the calling functions for blackberry will be ready. Please let the users know the estimated time of completion rather than "SOON" to avoid disappointment and to manage everyone's expectation. Thank you.
DeleteRaheel here... Can you please tell me of an exact date?????
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately we don't have such date ourselves.
DeleteWe hope to complete it within the next few months.
Once we have news, we'll publish it officially in our Facebook page.
Why must Blackberry be so complicated to work with... =(((((( I love this app though, I use it on my ipad, it works great! but please please hurry up with the blackberry app and phone calling :)
ReplyDeleteWorking as fast as we can ;)
DeleteWe'll keep our fans posted with news.
First of all, I just wanna say thank you to Viber for putting their hard work on intergrating voip to blackberry. Take your time guys, as we all know Viber always produce the best. Will support Viber always!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind compliments!
DeleteWe're thrilled to hear our fans are anticipating our calling service. We'll keep working as hard as we can, and once we have news we'll let you know :)
Hi. Is Viber currently under instant messaging category? 'Cause I really want to use viber if it works with Globe's BB Social. It doesn't really work over the wifi. But it does for my data. So I hope it works with BB Social.
ReplyDeleteHi,
DeleteI am not entirely sure I fully understand your question. Would you please care explaining again?
I'm wondering when viber releases their VoIP - any dates?
ReplyDeleteSecondly any other VoIP I could use calling from uk to india?
Unfortunately we don't have any specific release dates yet. Once we have news, we'll fill you in.
DeleteI appreciate the response. However I've been following the thread for a while after which I posted my earlier remark.
DeleteI agree you cannot give us any dates, but should be able to give us a time frame. I understand it is not easy to integrate Viber with the blackberry and all the remarks you've made on this thread.
We'd appreciate a more committing remark rather than - no news is good news, at point in time no news is bad news.
I'm a user of Viber in the UK and want to use the app to call family in India !!
We completely understand your point of view and respect it, but it is important to note that if we do end up giving a time frame for the release of our calling service on Blackberry, and then unexpected delays occur, it will make our fans even more disappointed.
DeleteInstead, we assure our fans that we are working on it around the clock (so - the effort is made), and that once we have news, we will keep them posted. This is the only guarantee we can make at this stage, unfortunately :)
What I really appreciate is your continuous and relentless response to make sure we believe in what you're saying.
DeleteCool I'll give it some more time before posing the question again.
Thanks for coming back to me.
Our goal is not to make our users believe in what we're saying, it's to keep them posted with the real processes and genuine plans of our company ;)
DeleteIf we (as the developing company) do not know specific time frames for a certain project, then how could we publish it to our users? We wouldn't want to mislead our fans and promise them false dates.
We make sure to reach out to each and every user of ours across the internet and provide answers and news. As as we promised, we will keep you posted once updates are available.
Hey release it on 23 rd of July would be a great present for viber for my bday :D go viber we got faith in you :D
ReplyDeletePlease make it quick tho. I know its a really hard job for you lot but this is what what were all waiting in BB. Would be great for users.
ReplyDeleteWe're working hard to complete it as soon as we can. Thank you for the kind words - we are thrilled to hear that so many of our fans are anticipating our calling service :)
Deletei am wondering whether viber is free in america on both 3g and wifu connection . thx
ReplyDeleteViber itself - the app and the service - is totally free, meaning we (Viber) don't charge anything from you.
DeleteSince Viber uses the internet to function, both sides of the conversation must be connected to either WiFi or 3G. If a user is connected to WiFi - that user is not paying anything for sure. If the user is connected to 3G, the user *may* be paying his cellular company for the data (Viber uses 0.25MB per minute of call), but that depends on the specific data plan that he has with his cellular company, and needs to be verified with them.
When is viber free caling coming to BlackBerry?
ReplyDeleteWe still don't have specific release dates unfortunately, but we hope to complete the development soon.
DeleteOnce we have news, we'll announce it officially in our Facebook page :)
which data plan will the viber application use for calling from BlackBerry? Normal internet plan or BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) plan? If it would use the unlimited BIS Plan then it will be a benifit to use Viber for BlackBerry. Please answer..
ReplyDeleteViber's first priority is using BIS, and only then the 3G Data. Of course, if you're connected to WiFi, then Viber will use the WiFi ;)
Deletei downloaded viber in my BB torch.... it gt installed ... bt dont know why it nt working ... processing the application from 2 days ... how to deal with it

ReplyDeleteHey Honey Grace,
DeleteTill now the Viber team didn't releases the date when they upgrade the free calling system in their Blackberry app and they also says that it will takes few months.
We suggest you to use lots of other VoIP app's one Like Rebtel which is available for Blackberry and offers free calling and texting services.
Warm Regards

ReplyDeleteHi still the date I couldn't find viber in BlackBerry App. Is it possible to use viber free call in BB 8520?
ReplyDeleteWe are still unsure when exactly our calling service will be available for Viber for Blackberry.
ReplyDeleteOnce we have news, we will officially announce it on our Facebook page :)
HOW SOON CAN BB USERS GET THE CALLING FEATURE OF VIBER ON OUR PHONES? IT HAS BEEN AWHILE NOW SINCE WE WERE TOLD THAT IT'S COMING. THANKS!
ReplyDeleteWe are working on it as hard as we can, and we hope to have good news soon.
DeleteAs we've promised, once we have news, we will officially announce it through our Facebook and Twitter pages :)
Hi. Ican't receive or send msgs in viber if im using wifi only. I could only use viber if im using my BB service/data plan. Im afraid i might be charged with my usage.
ReplyDeleteWhat could be the problem?
@Anonymous -
ReplyDeleteViber should be function normally on both 3G and WiFi... can you please elaborate on the problem on WiFi?
Also, please note that Viber uses your BIS network as a first priority, before using the data plan (3G).
Everybody must have androids or iphones instead of blackberrys poor ios
ReplyDeletehow do I install Viber on my Blackberry BOLD?
ReplyDeleteYou can simply find Viber on App World :)
DeleteDoes it not work for you?
I myself am happy with Viber on my 8520 I use it loads I like many cant wait for the calling option but I will say do not rush it because if you do and there are issues then people will complain Release it when you are satisfied with you work... Keep it up Viber team :)
ReplyDeleteWhen are free calls going to be available for blackberry?
ReplyDeleteblackberry services should mot be allowed for indians, they are useless idiot laborers sprouting elsewhere

Hello Viber, I am really thankful for the app for blackberry :D
ReplyDeleteI am excited and cant wait for the call? you guys got a date on it? :D
Hi,
DeleteThanks for the kind compliments, we're delighted to hear you're enjoying Viber ;)
Unfortunately we don't have release dates yet, but we're working around the clock to complete it as soon as possible. Stay tuned for news and updates through our Facebook or Twitter pages :)
is viber included in globe's bb social plan?
ReplyDeleteIf you mean the BIS plan, then yes - Viber utilizes your BIS data as a first priority :)
DeleteIf you're referring to the BIS data plan, then yes - Viber utilizes BIS data as first priority.
DeleteHi viber team i just want to clarify if viber doesnt allow to call other viber user here in canada?
ReplyDeleteViber for Blackberry does not contain viber's calling service yet. It is under development, and we hope to complete it soon.
DeleteViber for iPhones and Android does have the calling feature, and yes, you can call anybody else who has Viber installed, no matter where they are in the world ;)
When will the call feature for Blackberry users be available? :(
Deletewill we be able to call more then 2 viber users after few months? :p
ReplyDeleteWhen can we start making calls via Viber with our BlackBerry?? The app is kinda useless with it.
ReplyDeleteHey viber when is there going too be free calling for blackberry I have too use my mom's cell just too call my gf on a app
ReplyDeleteHaving a Phone logo on the Viber app icon is a JOKE if you cannot actually make a call. It's now September and if you review the date when the first entries were made in this chat forum, you'll see that we're SIX months later (March 2012)...and STILL no sign of viber CALL or even a targeted release date. Viber - you guys are a joke... Roll on iPhone - I cannot wait to move upwards in that direction.
ReplyDeleteFOREGT useless viber everyone.
ReplyDeleteDownload, instal and **USE** TringMe for BlackBerry:

ReplyDeletecan't wait for viber calls for blackberry. too bad it's taking a looooong time. :(
ReplyDeleteWe are working hard here in our company to bring the calling feature to our Blackberry users. We apologize for the long wait, and we promise to let you know once we have news.
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI am using on bb 9790 in UAE using Etisalat
error appears when i enter mobile no. it takes long and appears its unavailable or blocked
please suggest.
k
The authorities in the UAE have decided to block Viber in the whole country, and that is why you are experiencing this issue. Unfortunately there is not much we can do to help :(
DeleteTry contacting the authorities and ask for the reason for this block.
I love the viber free texting. looking forward to the free calls..
ReplyDeletei have had viber installed on my blackberry, it stoped working today so i uninstalled and reinstalled but i wont take the access code?
ReplyDeleteWhen will we get the full viber application for Blackberry. We are unable to make voice calls on blackberry phones.
ReplyDeleteDear Viber Team,
ReplyDeleteAs a blackberry user, I really can't wait to have the calling feature of viber on my blackberry. I think it will be a boost for all blackberry devices itself. Now, I was wondering, since it's taking more time than expected, what are the posibilities to release the calling feature for the latest OS of blackberry first ? Like doing it step by step. Aren't the latest OS of blackberry easier to get it working with ? For example, try to release the calling feature first for OS 7.0 and 7.1, then for OS 6.0 and last for OS 5.0. This suggestion is only because I think the older OS of blackberry is more complicated and at the same time to get at least some people with blackberry to become happy. And again, this suggestion is ONLY if the newer OS of blackberrt is easier and faster to get it working, if ALL OS is same difficult and complicated, then this suggestion does not apply.
Awaiting a positive answer.
Thanks !
Our update with the calling option is still under development these days. Unfortunately we still don't have specific time frames for the release, but we'll keep you posted as promised. Remember that we want to see this update ready and alive as much as our users do ;)
ReplyDelete@Anonymous -
About your suggestion, unfortunately this isn't the case with the different versions of the BB OS. This is what we've been doing for the past several months - closely examining the different Blackberry OS versions and devices, and seeing how our calling update could be implemented to each and every one of them. It is a joint process that involves all devices and OS versions, and so unfortunately we'll not be able to release it to a specific devices first.
We apologize for the temporary inconvenience, and we will keep you informed with news as soon as we have them.
Hey - Team Free Calling Hub,
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to advice that the alternative of viber which you suggested, TringMe, does not work properly ! Voice has 4 - 8 seconds delay on WiFi and this application drains your battery. I hope you guys pass this information on to the developers of TringMe. In the meantime, awaiting the full version of Viber. I refuse to switch to Android or I-phone just for viber. I think blackberry is good and when the full version of Viber is ready for blackberry, then blackberry will be the best.
Thank you for your attention and I think this blog is the best in order to stay in contact with Team Free Calling Hub and Team Viber.
Thanks a lot for your wonderful support, to both Teams !
Kind Regards,
A loyal Blackberry user
Hey Anony,
DeleteThanks for telling us about the TringMe app and now we will talk with The TringMe developers regarding this issue...Enjoy Free International Calling & Free Texting From Our Website..!!!
Warm Regards

For ME this call option on viper for blackberry is a BIG DREAM!!
ReplyDeleteWhy? As we all know for us to use BBM we need to subscribe to our Sim Provider as have access, so there is Money involvement... When RIM allwed this call option in viper the INCOME in BBM will be ZERO...... and Blackberry will be nothing...
That's my point of view!! Sorry..
@Oscar Jr Velasco.. You got it all right..lol..:D
ReplyDeleteAnd to all who wait for VIBER free calls on Blackberry.. This is just for you to think about..
I don't think RIM/Blackberry will ever allow free call. Not for Viber, Not for any other application. There are loads of apps that can do free calls for IOS or Android, and none works for Blackberry..lol.. Do the developers get it wrong with BB?? Lol..:D Blackberry won't just allow it..
Wen will da call function be available??
ReplyDeleteSo can i ask you why i cannot install viber on my wife BB Curve 8520 in BG ? When i use it on my Android device ?
ReplyDeleteCan i ask you why i cannot install Viber on my wife BB curve 8520 in Bulgaria when i use it on my android device ?

ReplyDeleteviberrrrrrrrrr...hurry up :D
ReplyDeleteim using a blackberry with the social plan, i want to know if Viber works with this plan or i need the full data/internet plan..
ReplyDeleteViber July 7, 2012 5:59 AM
ReplyDeleteHopefully a few months.
We're working on it as hard as we can :)
5 months and you have not done it yet, I don't think you are working hard enough guys... just give us a specific date !
This is kind of ridiculous, over a year now! This is a cheap shut :) Very bad advertising from Blackberry. I have one and I will change tomorrow for a Smart phone which allows Free calls with Viberapps.
ReplyDeletecan u provide viber without using the bbplan.
ReplyDeleteWhen??? C'mon wanted to buy 3 bbm for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI have a BB 9320 with the latest OS. Viber is not working over WiFi. It's saying there is no internet connection. Any suggestion on this?
