Not possible to restore chat on secondary device (iPad)

I have been a loyal and frequent user of Viber for at least a decade now. Viber has been my app of choice over all other chat services, including phone text. Viber has been serving me great until recently. The most recent update has deleted my account from my secondary device (iPad). After several unsuccessful attempts to log back in and restore my chat history, I found an article on the Viber support pages which clearly states that it is no longer possible to restore 1-on-1 chats and group chat history on a secondary tablet device. Which is very strange, because chat history actually syncs perfectly on a secondary computer device. Why was this important functionality suddenly removed? What is the point of backing up chat history if I can’t sync with my secondary tablet devices? When I start a chat on the primary device, I am no longer able to pick it up on my secondary device. This makes the app on the secondary device useless, so unfortunately I had to change my previously solid 5-star rating to 3 stars. App developers - please fix this problem, and re-enable seamless chat history sync across all devices, as it works on the competitor apps. Otherwise the Viber app becomes completely pointless on the secondary devices. Thank you.

Fix the last update. It is broken!

UPDATE: I’ve been contacted by support, it seemed like they really care to fix the problem. With new update my Viber is working without any problems. I really hope that they will not have any problems like this in the future. So… because support contacted me within 24hours, because they tried and care to resolve problem I changed my review to 5 stars.

I’ve been using this app over 6 years. I was even recommending it to all my family and friends. It is awesome, fast, never any problems with audio or video calls until the latest update. Since I updated it to the newest version it went down the hill. App start kicking me out, then it finally stopped doing that but then it start freezing. It froze for few minutes and then crash. I can’t do anything. I can’t back it up, I can’t report a problem, I can’t contact support… Nothing! I even tried removing the app and downloading it again. Even that didn’t help. It is so frustrating! I saw in the comments that I am not the only one with this problem. I really hope you will fix this problem soon.

App crashes when doing chat history restore

I have been an avid user of the app for 7 years and it’s been great with the stickers and gifs that make messaging interesting. But I’ve had problems receiving and sending messages in the past month. I made sure I am using the latest version of the app and iOS software. So when that did the fix my problem, I opted to delete and reinstall the app since that seemed to fix the issue for some people.

However, when I tried to restore my chat history, the app would crash after 1% and revert to my phone’s home screen. When I try opening the app, the restore screen would pop up and again crash after 1%. Granted I have about 28gb of chat history, but I have enough phone and iCloud storage that it shouldn’t be an issue. I reached out to the Viber support team, but after the quick initial response with their “solutions” and me answering “No, tried it, still crashing on me,” I haven’t heard back from them which has now been 5 days.

I really hope that they are working on the issue and not just keeping me on a shelf of “to-work-on-later” issues. But until I receive a viable solution to the problem, the app will remain deleted for me since when (and if) the restore eventually chooses to work for me, I don’t want new messages to be erased.
