Hello.
I try to make application in app inventor, with message that is written in the textbox to be sent via viber or fb messenger, but I cannot set up the activity starter.
I do it with watsup but viber or fbmessenger doesn’t work.
Can I have a bit of help ?

You may try using any of the web APIs to use with 3rd party apps. Please see the link below about getting started with APIs in App Inventor.

Also, here are some more useful links in the document.

I haven’t tried using activity starter for messaging as you mentioned. Maybe you could post a tutorial about how you id it.
