After the latest updates of Viber for smartphones related to chat security (incltreatment end-to-end encryptionς). Με χαρά είδα σήμερα το πρωί πως έγινε upgrade and in the application for desktop with with Ubuntu.
The application for pc started to be down yesterday.
What one should do if he wants to continue using it on his computer in Ubuntu environment is to re-download it from here.
- Ubuntu will not automatically update.
- The way I will describe below is ONLY a functional 64bit architecture.
- For functional 32bit architecture see here.
To delete the old version of Viber, we do not have to open the terminal (CTRL + ALT + T) and write:
sudo apt-get remove viber
we write our password, press "Y" to say "YES" that we agree and the program will be uninstalled.
Then after we download the new one install of Viber.deb we double click on it. It will open the Ubuntu Software Center and install automatically.
We can open it from the dash by writing "Viber".
With the new 6.0.1 version, several of the previous bugs have been fixed
- New GUI more friendly and more like this on Android.
- More emoticons and playback of animated stickers.
- Fixed the bug with the application shortcut on the toolbar (instead of appearing to the right it was displayed above the Dash) and forced us to install a separate application indicator.
- Fixed the problem with the tonic system when writing Greek, we can now add tones without making extra adjustments.
- The audio of the alerts has been corrected.
In short, it no longer has to envy any of the other desktop platforms!
