The Rakuten Viber team asked Ukrainians whether they get nervous about unread chats, both incoming messages and sent messages that have gone unanswered. Over 40 thousand users took part in the survey on the official Rakuten Viber Ukraine channel.
If there is no answer
The results of the survey showed that about half (49%) of Ukrainians get nervous when they do not receive a response from their relatives or friends. In addition, 16% of respondents worry about the lack of feedback, regardless of who they wrote to.
Another 3% of respondents feel anxious when their work-related messages are ignored. On the other hand, 27% of respondents do not pay attention to unanswered messages, and 5% are not familiar with this feeling at all.
