Download Viber Client For Windows Desktop

Up until a few hours back, Viber, the popular VoIP service app was available for Android, BlackBerry, iOS, Windows Phone, and other mobile operating systems only. The good news is that Viber users can now make calls from Windows and Mac desktop as well.

Yes, Viber today released desktop client for Windows and Mac operating systems. PC and Mac users can now head over to the download page to begin downloading the setup.

For those who don’t know what Viber is, it’s a cool service that offers free text, photo message, and video calling for free. With the help of desktop client, you no longer need to turn up to your smartphone to make a call or send text. The other cool thing is that you can also transfer calls between your PC and mobile with a click.
