Viber (Rakuten Viber)

“Free and secure calls and messages to anyone, anywhere”
I use Viber a lot it’s encrypted and is safer then WhatsApp I even have it on my computer! It would be so convenient to have it as a portable application.

Viber is Closed Source

Reading old discussions on this forum, the portability of Viber has been requested more than once but never done. Being closed source software to make changes it is necessary that the author gives permission, probably did not happen. Furthermore, it would also be necessary to check what is written in this license.

What about signal?

Signal is an end-to-end encrypted open source messenger.

Signal could be portabilized

Signal is Open Source and could be portabilized. Open a new topic to request this version from the site managers (always in the section Request Apps).

better a multi-messenger and the best separetely!

i think john would say:
the goal should be to have one multi-messenger app and not 10 20 apps.
the gold standard would be an opensource app wit native support for at least the major popular apps.
i found a test from a serious non-profit consumer organisation, the 4 best are signal, skype, viber and wire!
signal is best and very good in messages, calls, groups and safety.
but there is a drop of bitternes, only wire passed the data privacy test!!!
whatsapp only sixth place and sends data to meta so it's...

the four worst: imessage, snapchat, google hangouts and kik.
it was a test for android and ios, but i think all the apps support windows!
what also speaks fo signal:
- aproved for us senate and staf
- recomended for direct messages of the european union and staf
- fiest place in test of a non-profit consumer organization
conclusion:
better a multi-messenger and the best separetely!

i help where i can! maybe you can help (me) too! see in my account under 'track' for my conservations/threads. be nice!
if you don't want to help, don't post crap!
