Method 1: Add Your Social Media Links Directly in Viber (Fastest & 100% Native)
This is the simplest and most underused feature.
For Personal Profiles
- Open Viber → Tap your profile picture → Edit Profile
- In the “About” section, manually add your links: instagram.com/yourusername tiktok.com/@yourusername twitter.com/yourusername facebook.com/yourpage
- Save. Anyone who opens your profile will now see clickable links to all your social accounts.
For Communities & Public Accounts (Highly Recommended for Brands)

- You can even add rich buttons: “Follow us on Instagram”, “Watch on TikTok”, “Join Facebook Group”
This is the method Viber officially encourages in 2025 for cross-platform growth.
Pro tip: Use link shorteners like bit.ly or linktr.ee to create a single “Link in Bio” that includes all social profiles + your Viber Community invite link.

Viber makes outbound sharing extremely easy.
How to Share Any Viber Content to Instagram/Facebook/Twitter
