How to Install Viber in Ubuntu and Other Linux
|
|||
|
|
======
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Here’s a quick guide on how you can install Viber in Ubuntu and other Linux systems.**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
[Viber][1] is a free, secure calling and messaging program for all popular mobile platforms and operating systems.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
It has a rich set of features such as voice/video calls, text messages with GIFs, stickers, photos, and videos. In addition, Viber features group chats, group calls and disappearing messages.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Viber is a closed-source program, but available as free for Linux distributions with native executable clients.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Here’s how to install it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Install Viber on Linux
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
It is available as an AppImage executable, deb and rpm package. Follow the respective button below to download it directly. The average executable size is ~180MB.

|||

|
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
[Deb executable for Ubuntu][3]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
RPM package for Fedora
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you have downloaded AppImage, simply change the permission to executable from any file manager. Then run.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- For Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Debian and related distributions, you can install deb package via [many methods][4].
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- You may double-click and open via the installed software manager. Or install via dpkg command as below.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
sudo dpkg -i viber.deb
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- For Fedora and RPM-based packages, you can install via the following command.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
sudo dnf localinstall viber.rpm
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
For Arch Linux and other distributions, you can use the Appimage as I explained above.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
### Usage
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
After you finish installing Viber, open it via the application menu. Here are a couple of things you need to remember.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Before you start using Viber from your Laptop/desktop, you need to set it up on your mobile phone. Download and install Viber for your mobile platform from the below links.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- [Google Play Store][5]
|
|||
|
|
- [Apple App Store][6]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Once installed, set up Viber. Remember, it requires your mobile number to register.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
After setting up, open the app on the Linux desktop. And you should see a screen like the one below.

|
|
Scan the QR code from your mobile phone app, and you should be ready to use Viber on your Linux desktop.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
**Note:** Since it is a closed-source app, make sure you understand the terms of this app and privacy-related situations while using Viber.
