About Viber

Viber is a messenger and calling app owned by Rakuten, popular in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and parts of Asia. viber.com is the official website with downloads and support; the apps connect to Viber's servers separately. Calls through messengers are restricted in some countries to protect phone operators' income, and Viber has been affected by such rules. A check by country shows whether viber.com answers from each place right now.

Frequently asked questions

Is Viber down right now?

Not for most of the world. In our latest check on 14 November 2026, 20:50 UTC viber.com opened from 81 of 84 countries. If it does not open for you, the cause is more likely local: your provider, your network or a restriction in your country. Run a new check to see the current result for your country.

Why does Viber not open in my country?

When viber.com works in other countries but not in yours, there are three usual reasons: a restriction ordered by authorities, filtering by your provider, or a network problem between your provider and Viber. A different security certificate, a reset connection or a wrong address from DNS are typical signs of filtering; a timeout can be either filtering or a network fault.

How is viber.com checked?

From measurement points in about 90 countries we look up the address of viber.com with the local DNS and open a secure connection to it, checking that the site returns its own certificate. We do not load the page content, and we do not publish which networks the measurements came from.
