At the end of 2014, Viber - a free Internet-based messaging application that is storming all mobile platforms has added video calling functionality. This is a mandatory move by Viber to compete with other competitors such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and Skype. Recently, Viber has continued to show his ambition to set foot on Google's very future operating system: Chrome OS.

Currently, the Viber application works on the Chrome OS platform that will allow Chromebook users to send messages and make video calls. Of course, texting and video calling between Viber users on Chrome OS is still completely free as other platforms and users only pay for making calls outside the Viber network.

Viber application is available on Chrome Web Store and allows users to download for free. However, Viber is under intense competition from another Google " home garden " application that is Hangout. The search giant cleverly integrated Google Hangout onto the Chrome OS platform.

Thus, with successful running on Chrome OS, Viber works on most popular operating systems ( on computers and mobile devices ), including OS X , Windows , Blackberry , Linux , Android and iOS .
