Whatsapp v/s Viber

<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">It has been a long journey from sending letters via post cards&comma; and then calling via public phones&comma; and now its halted at owning smartphones&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">With smartphones there comes a lot in store&period; Calls&comma; pictures&comma; messaging apps ranging from WhatsApp to Viber&comma; and games and Microsoft office also&excl; Phones are no longer restricted to just making calls and sending messages&period; They have reached up to a level way beyond the reach of people&period; What&&num;8217&semi;s going to be next&quest; No one knows&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;"><strong>The Grand Apps&colon;<&sol;strong><&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">And among the so many&comma; there&&num;8217&semi;s this grand WhatsApp messenger&comma; and the classic Viber for calls and messages too&excl; WhatsApp dint seem to have an option to make calls&comma; and now it has got that too&excl; Viber doesn&&num;8217&semi;t seem to have much of an escape against WhatsApp&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Lets have a look at the comparison of both the applications&comma; and see who comes out as the winner&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">To begin with <strong>compatibility<&sol;strong>&excl; Well WhatsApp&&num;8217&semi;s synchronization begins from the Nokia S40 phones&comma; which is the lowest possible in this list&excl; And then goes further up to the Symbian&comma; BB&&num;8217&semi;s&comma; Android&comma; iOs and Windows&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Viber needs at least a Nokia S40 Symbian&period; The rest remains the same with iOS&comma; MAC&comma; BB and the rest of alike&period; Viber is compatible to lower Android versions of 2&period;1 as well&comma; and WhatsApp is compatible to a phone with windows 7&period;5 too&excl; It will running it&&num;8217&semi;s best on the latest version of Galaxy and apple devices like Note 5&comma; Apple iPhone 8&comma; Galaxy S7 Price&comma; Xperia Z5 or LG G5<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Next comes the user <strong>Interface<&sol;strong>&period; WhatsApp has got a very simple to use outlook&comma; with the Nokia S40 and Symbian having the most simplest of all&period; Obviously we see regular updates with which WhatsApp tries to fix the bugs and keep its users satisfied always&period; Black berry also shares roughly a very basic approach for WhatsApp&excl; While the Android&sol;iOS&sol;Windows Phone seem to have the typical  blue green interface&excl;&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Viber&comma; has got the same purple and white for all its set of compatible devices&excl; This doesn&&num;8217&semi;t offer much&comma; and has only two task bars&period; Sometimes&comma; it gets a little complicated on the calls&comma; but otherwise its quite average&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Next comes what <strong>price<&sol;strong> to pay for both&excl; Its free when downloaded from iTunes&period; If not&comma; it will cost you a dollar after giving you one year of free usage for all other platforms&excl; Negligible as it is&comma; but with the so many users&comma; even one dollar counts&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Viber on the other hand is completely free&period; It doesn&&num;8217&semi;t seem to have a lot of add ons with the interface&comma; and its basic nature remains&period; There&&num;8217&semi;s these set if stickers that the company plans to come up with&comma; which are to be paid for&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Next comes <strong>Bandwidth<&sol;strong>&period; WhatsApp being used for only messaging and videos which are not of very high MB dies not use require much Bandwidth&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Viber on the other hand&comma; uses voice calls and video calls&comma; therefore consumes a lit of it in just few minutes&period; Wi-Fi is the feasible option while using Viber&comma; because cellular network might get exhausted during the use&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Now comes the <strong>security&period; <&sol;strong>WhatsApp needs you to have a number registered from which you can text&period; The app keeps a sync with your contacts and you know who&&num;8217&semi;s available on the app&period; However&comma; if you wish yo avoid someone&&num;8217&semi;s you can block them&comma; not let some one see you&comma; you can personalize your privacy options&period; So the WhatsApp is pretty much safe and secure&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Viber has a different approach towards this&period; It has options to turn things off when you dont wish someone to know you&&num;8217&semi;re online or be tracked by someone&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Next comes the very essential part&comma; <strong>Features&period;<&sol;strong><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Its not about what they have got&comma; but how they work out whatever they have&period; WhatsApp lets you share a lot&comma; from videos to audio clips&comma; and have a decent profile picture&comma; along with whatever status you wish to apply&excl; There&&num;8217&semi;s no hassle of logging in or logging out&comma; and there&&num;8217&semi;s small little things it offers&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Viber is a little limited&comma; and does not have too much to share&period; Video calls and just calls are not really of very good range&comma; if the required bandwidth isn&&num;8217&semi;t available&period; Keep updating those Whatsapp Status but&comma; Have fun&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;"><em>So&comma; after having a look at comparison of both the apps&comma; you can choose for yourselves which is a better one&excl; May be WhatsApp Wins bu a one or two points on pen and paper&period; However&comma; that&&num;8217&semi;s how it us&excl;<&sol;em><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;"><em>WhatsApp seems to have overpower all other apps&comma; somehow&excl;<&sol;em><&sol;p>&NewLine;
