We know people want to make their own decisions regarding their privacy.

So we’re giving you the option to make choices about your information.

Use the settings menu, and specifically the privacy settings menu to adjust and control different aspects of your privacy on the app. Here you’ll find important options such as ‘Hidden Chats’, personal data management, message requests, trusted contacts, and more. Now, you have the power to decide who adds you to group chats – whether it’s everyone or just saved contacts, it’s only three taps away: We know that sometimes people add you to some “interesting” group chats on Viber, whether it’s your neighbor or someone at work. Tap Settings > Privacy > Control Who Can Add You To Groups. Sometimes more than one person uses a desktop computer, but it doesn’t mean you have to share your Viber account with others. When using Viber for Desktop, you have the option to set a password to lock Viber so your chats stay yours only. ‘Online’ and ‘Read’ status settingsĭon’t want others to know if you’ve read their messages or when you were last online? No problem. Both can be turned off via the privacy settings.

Tap More > Settings > Privacy > Toggle off ‘Online’ status / ‘Seen’ status. Some conversations are very private and need an extra layer of security.
