Viber's VoIP iPhone, Android apps updated with enhanced UI, group messaging and more

[![Viber's VoIP iPhone, Android apps updated with revamped UI, group messaging and more][1] ][2]

It's safe to say Viber's [VoIP][3] applications have been somewhat of a hit since the early days [on Android][4] and [iPhone][5]. Now, looking to build up on that humble success, Viber's updating these apps to version 2.2, bringing with it a fresh group messaging feature, improvements to the voice engine for better call quality and tweaks to the UI, such as adding photos to contacts list. Meanwhile, the Windows Phone and BlackBerry flavors will have to wait for the goods, as Viber didn't announce any changes on those platforms. [Viber][6] v2.2 is up for download now from the App Store and Google Play links below.
