So, when Viber did not deliver messages in time, I felt like going back to WhatsApp. This is why these apps are called instant messaging apps! Many messages lose their relevance and context if they reach the destination late. Swift delivery of messages should be the most important concern of any messaging app. I am saying this while knowing that the recipient’s mobile internet connection was up and working. In my case, sometimes messages get delivered immediately whereas sometimes it reaches the destination after several hours. The biggest problem I found with Viber is that there can be a substantial delay in delivery of messages. Viber: Why is WhatsApp better than Viber? WhatsApp is yet to provide such a feature. While using both these apps simultaneously, I realized that WhatsApp is certainly better than Viber.īut why did I go for Viber in the first place? Well, I wanted to test a Viber feature that automatically deletes messages after a specified time has lapsed. And since then I have been regularly using Viber along with WhatsApp. However, when we published a post about WhatsApp alternatives, I tried many other similar apps. It is certainly among the best mobile messaging app out there. Like millions of users around the world, I have been using WhatsApp for years.
