Hello everybody!
This video is about how to install Viber on a computer without using a smartphone.
Viber developers let users have their messenger on several devices - a smartphone, a computer
or a laptop.
Anyway, the main device in this group is always a smartphone or a tablet PC with a phone number
which is a must-have
for registration.
So, to install Viber on a computer: • Download and install a PC version of Viber.
You can do it from the official website of the program.
You will find the link in the description:
• When you start the messenger after installation, you will see the question if you have Viber
on your mobile phone.
• If you say no, the program will inform you that you can’t use a PC version without
having Viber installed on your smartphone.
• What can you do if you only have a push-button mobile phone?
