You can then access your hidden chats with a PIN or by using Touch ID on your iOS device. What this gives you is the option to hide certain chats with certain people from showing up in the app's main screen.

Hidden chats are now also a part of Viber. Once that happens, you'll see a new padlock icon in the chat UI, which confirms everything is encrypted. The rollout of this new feature will be completed within two weeks.

Our mission is to protect your privacy so that you never have to think twice about what you can or cant share when youre using Viber. Like always, end-to-end encryption means no one can intercept your messages (be those one-to-one or group affairs) or calls, not even the app's maker. Communities on Viber bring people together Take part in a conversation on any topic you’re passionate about. With the latest version (that's already available in both the iTunes App Store for iOS and the Google Play Store for Android), all of your communications are end-to-end encrypted, provided all the people in a conversation have the new Viber iteration. Viber is the app in question, and it's no small deal, this, as it currently has more than 700 million users. Earlier this month, WhatsApp has announced that everything you communicate through it can now be end-to-end encrypted, and today one of its biggest competitors has done the same.
