Moving from Viber to AChat
Free calls and messages, with chats synced between your devices. Choose Viber if calls matter to you as much as messages. Choose AChat if you don't want a phone number in the picture, and you want anonymous rooms by link.
Last checked 2026-11-07. The full comparison is on AChat and Viber.
How to move across
- Sign in to AChat and pick a username. It asks for no phone number.
- Tell the people you talk to on Viber your username, or send them your link or QR code (personal chats and contacts).
- Save your recovery key somewhere only you can reach (devices and recovery). It's what brings your history back if you lose every device.
- Keep Viber open until the people you need have moved. AChat doesn't import chats from other apps.
