for the last several updates (roughly the last year) I've had nothing but problems with viber. I've had this app since 2013 and have moved all of my family to this app. I've reached out about the problems & now they're worse. messages aren't going through at all, calls aren't going through. it takes 15 minutes of trying to call each other and the only reason she knows I'm calling is her tablet rings. All android devices. when it finally connects it drops the call every 20 minutes. Fix this!

Started forcing ChatGPT integration with no consent. You can opt out by going to "Settings" -->"Calls and Messages", but all of it is still in there, with a clearly visible tab at the bottom of the main screen. I'm stuck using this app for contacting family and work, but I am NOT happy about AI being forced into this app. I just have to dance around it like every other piece of garbage that integrates it by force.

If you want to receive spam ad messages every day, without an option to opt out, this is the app for you. Update: After receiving this answer, to go to some link to open a ticket to opt out, instead of having that option in the app at least, I opened the ticket as instructed, and I got this reply "While you can't opt out entirely right now, you can manage them in your phone settings". So, we made a full circle... there is no option in the app. Lie, after lie. A well deserved 1* now.
