You desperately want to talk with your friend but you are low on credit. You wish there was another way to bridge over the cash-per-minute.

That’s when Viber flew in to save your day. The free Voice-Over IP application allows you to make free text messages and free calls with other Viber users.

The app was launched last year for iPhones, which was a disappointment for Android fans. Hearing their cries, Viber has now officially entered the Android Market.

The app uses 3G connectivity or WiFi to work. One of the perks of using this app is that you don’t need any kind of registration.

Using your existing phone number and contact list can make you a Viber user. The Android version of the app has the same features as the iOS version, plus a few extra ones too.

Pop-up text message notification, in-app call logs, and the option to use Viber as your default dialer are some of the few extra features on the Android app. The popularity of the app can be seen from the fact that it has around 12 million within seven months of its launch.

Moreover, the revolutionary mobile application clocks a call traffic volume of over one billion minutes of calls per quarter. Pretty impressive, we say.

Now that you know the story, go run and get one to ramble on for free. But before that, check out the video we got for you.
