viber app.jpgAn interesting one on AndroidCommunity.com. It flags the release of a free VoIP app - now available on Android as well as the iPhone - from Viber. Your communications are routed via WiFi rather than your mobile operator.

The website writes:
Free VoIP service Viber has launched its first Android app, allowing Android handset users to take advantage of free international calls and text messages. Already available for iPhone users, Viber differs from most VoIP services in that it doesn't demand registration; instead, it uses your own phone number.

When installed, Viber searches through your phonebook and identifies which of your friends are also using the app.
Apparently the app is free to download and there are no adverts. Hmmm, not sure about the business model here...
