    Have Viber on my iPad. I can't send photos, but can receive them. What can I do?
    Community Answer
    Learn what to do if you see an alert when you send a message or if you can't send. To send a message as iMessage or MMS, you need a cellular data or Wi-Fi connection. If this doesn't help, contact their customer service.
