To set up the new feature, you need to head over to the settings menu of the Viber app and select “Viber Local Number”. Viber is rolling out the service in the US, Canada, and the UK with more countries coming soon.

Viber will allow you to get a local based virtual landline or mobile number where anyone can call you at local rates. Viber claims 1 billion registered users, making it one of the largest chat apps in the world and today the company announced its latest feature - Viber Local Number (VLN).
