Viber is a mobile app that provides free international calls and text messages to other Viber users using 3G or Wi-Fi. Uses your existing contact list - check out which of your phone contacts and friends is already on Viber so that you can call and text them for free.
FaceTime, much like the sleek and shiny spaceship Apple designed it to be, effortlessly floats through the iOS cosmos, connecting Apple users in a warm, fuzzy embrace of high-definition video calls and crisp audio that makes it seem like you're sitting next to your friend in a minimalist café somewhere in Cupertino. The simplicity is part of the charm, really, because nothing says "I'm part of a closed ecosystem" quite like a service that works beautifully—*but only* if you're inside the ecosystem to begin with. If you’re not, well, tough luck, as FaceTime promptly evaporates into a polite, user-friendly "sorry, wrong planet."
Meanwhile, Viber is more like a slightly eccentric intergalactic hitchhiker, thumbing rides across the digital universe from iOS to Android to Windows, gleefully disregarding the boundaries that FaceTime reveres. It’s not just about video calls, mind you; Viber happily tosses in voice calls, text messaging, file sharing and probably an interstellar towel for good measure, all while making sure the connection stays encrypted and secure. Viber doesn’t care if you're a MacBook-wielding space pirate or a Windows-toting bureaucrat; if you’ve got a device, Viber’s got a way to chat—gratis.
In the end, FaceTime is like that posh, exclusive club where everything works as long as you're wearing the right shoes, whereas Viber is more like the quirky, open-to-all pub down the road where you can not only have a chat but send a virtual postcard while you're at it. One's seamless and polished; the other's a bit chaotic but infinitely more flexible—choose your adventure accordingly.
