Viber is a phone application that enables you to make phone calls over a Wi-Fi network to other Viber users - domestic and international. The contacts in your Viber are the same contacts in your phone's regular address book. If you would like to stop receiving phone calls and messages from someone, you can choose to block their phone number. However, if that person has access to an application like Viber they may still be able to contact you. Luckily, you can block them on Viber too.

Tips
Provide Details.
Please be as detailed as possible in your explanation. Don't worry about formatting! We'll take care of it. For example:
Don't say: Eat more fats.
Do say: Add fats with some nutritional value to the foods you already eat. Try olive oil, butter, avocado, and mayonnaise.

EditTips

  • If you enter a mobile number without a country or area code, Viber will use your location’s area code by default and add it to the number you’ve entered.
  • If you block a number in Viber, you won’t receive any Viber calls or messages from that number anymore, but you will still receive regular calls and text messages unless you’ve blocked it in the messaging app and call settings of your phone too.
