Backup and Restore Viber Messages iPhone?

Want to change to a new phone but don’t want to lose the Viber chat messages? Back up and restore Viber messages on iPhone could be easy. Here in this tutorial, I’d like to share several solutions for that.

Viber for Mobile

With Viber for mobile, you can make free calls, video chat, and send free text messages from your iOS/Android device to other Viber users, via 3G or WiFi on any device, in any network and country!

Unlike WhatsApp that requires both WiFi and local cell phone service, Viber needs only WiFi to make free Viber phone calls to any of your friends who have Viber. So it is an ideal choice when you’re traveling overseas. And Viber-Out lets you call non-Viber mobile numbers and landline numbers at low rates. When you’re getting close to your cell phone plan, you can use Viber-out and no more ridiculous overage fees anymore.
