A Community is a set of people with a particular interest in common. Unlike groups, which are usually reserved for people that know each other, Communities often welcome people from around the world and can have up to 1 billion members.

Communities also have advanced moderation features, including admins being able to ban members, remove content sent by other people, and only permit messages sent by other admins.

For more information on the type of content permitted in Communities, please review Viber’s Acceptable Use Policy. Communities that don’t adhere to the guidelines may be closed.

• Go public - Viber users will be able to find your Community using Search.
• Landing page - we’ll create a landing page for your Community on the Viber.com platform.

Take a look at our Viber for business page for more information.

Superadmins have the ultimate control in a Community. They can promote members to different roles, generate (and change) the invite link, turn on and off various permissions for all roles, and more. For further information, please refer to the Superadmin, admin, and member privileges table.

Notes

If you create a Community, you will automatically become the Superadmin.

Superadmins can promote an admin to the Superadmin role. If you want to make a general member of the Community a Superadmin, you will need to add them as an admin first.

IMPORTANT

Once someone is a Superadmin, they can demote you to admin, remove you from the Community, and make other changes to Community settings.

To promote an admin:

Phone

1. Open Viber on your Phone
2. Tap on Chats 
3. Select a Community in which you are a Superadmin
4. Tap Info  (Android) or the name of the Community (iOS) at the top of the screen
   • Android: tap on Community info
5. Under Members, tap on the admin you want to promote
6. Tap Add as Superadmin

Desktop

1. Open Viber on your Desktop
2. Select a Community in which you are a Superadmin
3. Click on Info
4. Click Members
5. Hover over the admin that you want to promote
6. Click Add as Superadmin

Any Superadmin can demote another Superadmin to the role of admin. This action will remove their ability to manage various permissions in the Community; however, they will still be able to moderate, i.e., ban and remove members, post in the chat, and remove messages.

To demote a Superadmin:

Phone

1. Open Viber on your Phone
2. Tap on Chats 
3. Select a Community in which you are a Superadmin
4. Tap Info  (Android) or the name of the Community (iOS) at the top of the screen
   • Android: tap on Community info

6. Tap Remove as Superadmin

Desktop

1. Open Viber on your Desktop
2. Select a Community in which you are a Superadmin
3. Click on Info 
4. Click Members
5. Right-click on the Superadmin you want to demote to admin
6. Click Remove as Superadmin

Notes

You can also demote yourself by following the same steps.

If the sole Superadmin leaves a Community without promoting another member to the Superadmin role, the Community will be left with zero Superadmins. This allows one admin to assign the role to themself. Once the role of Superadmin has been filled, no other admins will be able to become a Superadmin unless the new Superadmin promotes them.

To establish yourself as the new Superadmin of a Community without an existing Superadmin:

Phone

1. Open Viber on your Phone
2. Tap on Chats 
3. Select a Community in which you are an admin

Member moderation: If a member acts inappropriately, you have the right to remove or ban them from your Community.

New members can see the entire chat history of a Community once they join it, allowing them to easily catch up on all messages previously sent in the Community.

A pinned message* will always stay at the top of your Community chat screen. Tapping/clicking on the message will bring your members directly to the message in your chat.

If their answer is correct, they will see a green tick; if their answer is wrong, they will see a red cross. If available, the answer explanation will be shown after an answer is submitted. Once submitted, answers cannot be changed.

Superadmins and admins will always see the percentage of people who selected each answer, while members will only have this information after submitting their answer. The number of members that participated in the quiz can be seen at the bottom of the poll.

Note
It isn’t possible to see individual responses i.e. what answer each member chose.

Message reactions allow you to see how your Community is responding to your content. Please note that unlike in groups you won’t see individual responses.

For more information, please see our article on Community Message Statistics.

Community insights* show you detailed information about your Community members and how your content is being engaged with. For more information, please refer to the Community Insights article.

• Members: Can be banned by admins and Superadmins.
• Admins: Can be banned by Superadmins.
• Superadmins: Can be banned by Superadmins (available only on iOS. If you’re using an Android or desktop, you will first need to demote the Superadmin to admin before you can ban them.)

Notes

• Unbanning a member won’t add them back into the Community; they will need to join again using an invite link or be added by another member/admin.
• Members who were previously admins/Superadmins won’t have their role reinstated if they join the Community again (unless they are promoted).
