Viber update lets you delete sent messages and more

Instant messenger app Viber has received an incremental update on both Android and iOS. The update adds new features among which is the ability to delete messages even after sending them.

The Viber v5.6.5 for Android and iOS now lets users remove a text message from all members of the conversation even after it has been sent. The process is fairly simple as Android users can select the text bubble they intend to delete by long-pressing on it and choosing the option Delete for everyone.

There is no time limit for deleting the text. On iOS, users can choose Delete followed by Delete for everyone after long pressing the bubble. This feature is welcome change for users but also makes Viber. The version also makes it easy for Viber users to attach files such as documents, presentations, archives and others in the contact list.

For Android users, the app brings easy sharing options too. The iOS version brings the ability to share images and videos directly from iCloud. For iOS 9 specifically, the Viber v5.6.5 enables users to reply to messages without opening the app and lets them search for conversations and contacts using Spotlight search. The updated app is available to download from Google Play and the App Store.
