So here's my honest take on Rakuten Viber Messenger. I've tested a bunch of messaging apps and this one's pretty solid. And the free calling and video features work really well, and the overall experience is smooth and easy to use. The interface could be a bit more polished, but it gets the job done. Not the most exciting app out there, but it's reliable and has all the basics covered.

Description

Been using Rakuten Viber Messenger for a couple months now. It’s basically a free messaging and calling app that connects over a billion people worldwide. Pretty solid app if you’re into staying in touch with friends and family.

Here’s what you can do: send free text, photo, sticker, GIF, voice, or video messages. And there’s also group chats and disappearing messages, which is pretty cool. And you can make unlimited free audio and video calls, even with up to 60 people at once – that’s super handy.

Look, if you’re into messaging apps, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the ads can be annoying if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you want a simple, secure way to chat with your contacts.
