Features of installation and operation of Viber on iPhone
As on any other smartphone, on iPhone Viber works through the application of the same name, which gives access to all the functions of the messenger. Since iOS is a closed operating system, it is recommended to download Viber from official sources, namely the App Store.
When you download Viber from official sources, the application is installed automatically. There is no need to perform any additional actions.
The appearance and functionality of the application on iPhone is no different from Viber installed on Android. The design is made in the purple colors familiar to the messenger, and functions include sending text and audio messages, multimedia and making video calls. In addition, the interface is completely translated into Russian.
Chats and calls
The client provides all the most important tools for communication in the form of a chat. The user can send text and audio messages to the interlocutor, supplementing them with emoticons and stickers - free or purchased in the Viber store. It is also allowed to send photographs or videos taken earlier or immediately before sending, and even draw graffiti like VKontakte.
Among other functions, it supports location sharing and quick sending of materials from GIPHY, YouTube, Booking, Vice, TuneMoji and others.
Where to download Viber for iPhone
Any person who is interested in this messenger will definitely have a question about where to download Viber. Today we will look at not only the main option, but also additional ways to download Viber.
App Store
The App Store is a standard application store installed by default on all iPhones without exception. The EpStore icon is located on the main screen of the device. And when you click on the logo, the store itself opens with millions of applications.
A user who wants to download Viber must take care of searching for the appropriate application in the store. To do this, you can go to the search bar, where you should enter the request “Viber”.
As a rule, the official Viber application comes first in search results. But besides it, there are a lot of clones in the App Store. To choose the right program, you need to start from the number of downloads. The official Viber page looks like this:
To download the application through the AppStore, you need to click the download button, after which Viber will begin downloading and installing it. Upon completion of the process, the user will receive a notification indicating that the program is ready for further use.
iTools
The operating system “from” to “to” controls the processes associated with installing applications. This does not allow owners of Apple devices to access the latest versions of programs. But you can bypass this limitation using the iTools program, which should be installed on your computer.
Also, do not forget to download the Viber installation file in .ipa format to your PC.
The next step is connecting the iPhone to the computer. To do this, you need to use the supplied cable. If the operation is performed correctly, the model of your device will be displayed in the iTools interface and options for editing parameters will become available.
The Ituls program has a wide range of functionality, but today we are interested in installing Viber. To perform the operation, you will need to open the “Applications” section, click the “Install” button and select the required ipa file previously downloaded to your computer.
After this, the installation process will begin, after which Viber will appear in the general list of applications. Next, you can disconnect your iPhone from your computer and start using Viber from your smartphone.
iTunes
Unlike iTools, iTunes is the official software for interacting with an iPhone via a computer. iTunes also works through the program of the same name and gives the user the opportunity to install Viber on the phone.
In fact, this installation method does not provide any advantages compared to the option presented at the very beginning of the material, when the AppStore application store was used. But, if it doesn't work, and you don't want to deal with unlicensed resources, iTunes will definitely help.
First, you need to install the current version of the program on your computer. Next, you need to connect your iPhone to your PC using the included USB cable. If everything is done correctly, your iPhone will appear in iTunes.
The next step is to tweak the software menu a bit so that it shows the programs. To do this, you need to left-click on the “Music” inscription at the top of the interface and check the boxes next to the “Programs” item, then click the “Finish” button. And now that the required menu section has been added, all you have to do is click “Programs in the App Store”.
The application store will open, where, as in the case of the App Store on iPhone, you need to use the search function. Find Viber and click the “Download” button.
Now we can say that the operation is completed, and the user will only have to wait for the download process and disconnect the iPhone from the computer.
Third Party Sources
Apple iPhone users are advised to download any applications, including Viber, only from official sources. But, if a person wants a version of Viber that is not available in the App Store, you can turn to unofficial resources for help.
By downloading applications from third-party resources, you assume all risks associated with the further operation of the device.
Third-party resources include sites that offer downloads of the application download file. Links to download Viber are presented on the 4PDA forum and a bunch of other Internet sites. If necessary, you can use your browser's search bar to find the option you're interested in.
Unlike official download methods, installation when downloading Viber from third-party resources occurs not automatically, but in manual mode. We talked about how to install Viber via an ipa file in the “iTools” section of the material.

Review of Viber on iPhone 4
:
If you want to use the full version of the application on a PC, then you will definitely have to install the program on your iPhone, because your mobile device must receive a confirmation that Viber access is allowed and its synchronization with the number. Otherwise, you can use an emulator. The version of the program we presented is completely official, and is not limited in capabilities; the only thing you need to pay for is the opportunity to communicate with users who do not have this program.
In all other cases, this is the best and probably the most popular way to pay less for communications. Everywhere you look, almost every ordinary smartphone owner already uses this application. Even according to advertisements, most do not call, but are immediately added to Viber, because the number itself is used as an identifier, and thus absolutely anyone can write a message to you and completely free of charge!
We were looking for a direct file for downloading Viber on iPhone 4, but the developers of the iOS operating system made it impossible to install third-party applications, and therefore the application can only be installed through the official Apple website, to which the download link leads. As we said, this way you download the latest version without third-party software.
