Viber Stops Supporting Android Auto: Here's What We Know

Android Auto users may be in for some disappointment as Viber, a popular voice-calling service, has reportedly stopped supporting the platform. The news was first discovered by users who noticed that the app had disappeared from their Android Auto systems.

According to reports on Google's support forums, several users have been affected by this issue, with no explanation provided by Viber or its official channels. However, in a Play Store review reply, Viber seemingly confirmed that support for Android Auto was intentionally removed due to 'technical reasons,' but assured users that the feature will be available again soon.

For those unfamiliar with Viber, it's an internet-based voice-calling service that allows users to make calls and send messages over Wi-Fi or cellular data. The service debuted support for Android Auto in recent years, allowing users to access their contacts, make calls, and send messages directly from their car's infotainment system.

To use Viber with Android Auto, users will need to download the app on their smartphone and then connect it to their car via USB or Bluetooth. However, for now, this feature is temporarily unavailable due to technical issues.

We'll be keeping an eye out for any updates from Viber regarding when support for Android Auto will be restored. In the meantime, affected users can continue to use Viber on their smartphones and tablets as usual.
