Viber no tray icon

I've lost my viber try icon since maybe 2-3 week after update

also main app window doesn't show up when double clicking the "icon".

Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

Re: Viber no tray icon

Qt5 5.4.0 has problem with tray icons, it's broken presently and I don't know when and if this will be fixed.
It seems there is not much love for tray icons nowadays with developers, I don't know why.
The only way I see at this time is to use Qt4.
You should report this to the Viber developers, and see if a Qt4 version of this appli may be built.
Report it also to the AUR package maintainer.

^ Yep, seeing this with other Qt5 apps as well. Some of them add workarounds for specific panels. Maybe all the Qt5 devs use Unity or GNOME3 or something.
