Help with Viber on iphone 4

[kdeerman]

I am out of the country, and I am using Viber to communicate with my family. Everytime I send a text, a window pops up telling me to Turn airplane mode Off, or use wifi to to access data. I need to keep airplane mode on to preserve battery life - I have no cellular service. Wifi is on, and my texts are going through, but this message keeps popping up, and I have to click OK to finish my texts. It pops up 2-3 times every time I send a text. It is very annoying. Does anyone have any idea how to stop this?

Thanks

Maybe I don't get it... but if you have no cell service, why stay in Airplane mode, esp if your wi-fi is working correctly? I'm not sure how this would help your battery life. Help.

Ok, Thanks. I have it in airplane mode because I thought the battery would drain a lot faster if the phone continued to look for a signal. I will turn airplane mode off, and see how it performs.
The funny thing is that I have been over here for 6 weeks, and it just started this pop up message yesterday.

Thanks

I am not sure either how airplane mode would be assisting in preserving battery life.

Thanks guys,

You were correct. I've been using it with Airplane mode off, with no battery issues.

Thanks.
