Viber 2.1

Viber 2.1 is loaded with wonderful features, like the new VIVO voice engine, which will make your Viber calls sound even better than ever!

And as requested by our users, with Viber you can now send photos while texting with your friends, with a simple push of a button. You can either take a

new picture and send it, or load an already saved picture from your picture library. Your pictures can be shared on Facebook, sent via mail, and forwarded

through Viber to other Viber contacts.

But there's much more....

Viber now becomes Location-Aware:
How about sending your friends your present location? Viber has also added this fanatastic new feature, and as always, we have kept it simple.
Share your current location with your contacts so that they will know from where your message was sent. When sharing your current location, it
will be attacfhed to every outgoing message. And of course your privacy is most important to us, so this feature can be enabled or disabled by
simply tapping the 'location' button that has been added next to the input box.

The "X is typing" notification will make it even easier to text. No more waiting to see if your contact is replying or not.
Now you will know when your friend is there, and actually answering your recently sent message. When your friend replies to your message,
his name will appear right above the text imput field.

Same tabs, just a different order. We changed the order of the tabs in order to improve the accessibility to the 'Messages' section.

New and improved Busy Screen. If your contact is currently busy, you can simply leave him or her a free text message. Or you can redial the number.

Minor improvements have also been made to message sending behavior. For example, the Resend button. If your message was not sent, you will be notified, and you will have the option to resend it.

Delivered indicator showing when the message was delivered. Viber is the only App that supports this on iPhones without requiring that the recipient actually open the message. Obviously, this works on Androids too.

New improved facebook integration as well

And how about our More screen? Yes, this has also been rearranged. We have added various customization features which can be accessed via the new Settings section.
