Definitely set 2FA !!. Love WhatsApp. Use it more than any other app. 100x better than SMS! However, it recently was hacked. And the person that did it, tried to scam my friends, family and business associates out of money by saying he was me and needed to borrow money. This was the moment I realized whatsapp support was zero help. I sent them messages and they replied with copied text from their FAQ. It was ridiculous. They did help one bit as it almost felt like they were supporting my hacker. Make sure you set your 2FA. And if you get hacked, delete whatsapp and change the SIM card in your phone. Then you have to wait 7-days for the email authentication to reset. My hacker kept resetting it so it actually took a lot longer. C’mon whatsapp! Figure out how to shut these guys down. Use the power of Facebook and figure it out!

Deactivating my account for no reason. I just got a new phone and a new US phone number I downloaded WhatsApp on my new phone. All my contacts were still there but my chat histories were gone. I used WhatsApp how I would normally use it. There were no chats on the main screen of my WhatsApp, I clicked on the contact of one of my friend’s to chat with and it created a completely new chat (therefore there was now one chat on my mainscreen). Normally whenever someone changes their phone number, it just notifies the other person that the person has changed their phone number. But in my case, it just created a whole new chat with the person. After I texted with 3 people with my new phone (only 3 chats were on my WhatsApp mainscreen), I got a “banned for spamming” message on my screen. After around 10 hours, they said I could reactivate my account. I put in my phone number and just as I was writing my display name, I received another ban. Now I just got my account back a second time so hopefully the same error doesn’t happen! I’m really upset by this and I hope WhatsApp manages to fix it.

WhatsApp Changed for the Better!!. I have used WhatsApp for about a year now, and I love it!!!!WhatsApp is an overall Great and Safe social Media!!! It allows me to be able to communicate with friends and family around the world! WhatsApp is a great way to message and talk to your friends and and family virtually! It has satisfied me 100%! I extremely suggest it. One feature that I’m in love with is, the status feature, it allows you to post videos,gifs,pictures about you and what your doing today, and plus to keep it safe, only your contacts or the people you chose can view it!! WhatsApp is amazing! My friends and I enjoy it very much!! It keeps me in touch with everyone! 😊! I 100% recommend anyone to use WhatsApp, it’s completely safe and free!! 🤩🤩 Sincerely, Kira Robinson

Needs 1 change. I love this app, but 1 thing I wish they would change is their notification system/inability to get calls when I’m on another cal. Sometimes I’ll be on a phone call from my actual phone, and then when I get off the phone an hour later, and if someone from WhatsApp is trying to call me, it’ll say “Missed Video call from____”. To me, it’s annoying how if I’m automatically on a phone call, the WhatsApp video call won’t go through period. WhatsApp should let the video call go through, so even while I’m on my phone during another phone call, and I see someone calling me, I can answer the other. Sometimes it’s important and I need to answer because it’s family from another country, but I never can because WhatsApp automatically tells them I’m on another call, but doesn’t notify me. Fix it. Please. It works with audio calls, why not do this for video calls too?

Not opening a chat. So me and my friend were talking and I put too much emojis I didn’t even get to send I kept copying and pasting u until it makes a long paragraph because I wanted to try something but it just lagged and then I left WhatsApp and went back onto it and clicked on the friend I was texting but it didn’t open. Every time I click onto our chat, it doesn’t open it just lags on her name then I need to get off WhatsApp and on again I also turned off my phone and opened it again and still the same problem. I could open other peoples chat but not me and hers. It does let me go onto her contact info when I long click on her name but when I tried to get back onto our chat it wouldn’t work I even tried to do the chat search and it wouldn’t work. What would only work is the media,links and docs and the starred messages so please try to help me out with getting back onto our chat.❤️

Not user friendly for end-to-end encrypted backup password. What’s app is not user friendly in the case of iCloud backup end-to-end encrypted password. I am stuck in the what’s app after install in my new iPhone. I couldn’t have chance to access my old iPhone so I can’t change the encrypted forgot password. To using new iPhone app needs to allow user to get in their account. For me only allow to check the phone number and it’s directly came to iCloud Restore back up. If I turn off iCloud or my iCloud account also not allow me to get in my what’s app account. It’s showing if I skip to restore I can’t restore backup anymore. Now what’s app is not user friendly. Restore backup what’s app is a user decision. But here what’s app only deciding what we need to do. If it allow me to get in my account then I can change or turn off my encrypted password for my backup. Now I am hate to use apple product and what’s app. What ever user safety or protection need to give some option to check the correct user to use what’s app. In future I won’t recommend anyone to use what’s app and apple product. Best to use text message in any device. End to end encryption is too frustration

Splitting long videos for WhatsApp status. Hi WhatsApp… it’s your boy here. Yeah just wanted to say the app is great, really. Being from Jamaica, WhatsApp is pretty dominant, a great and easy way to connect with people you love. I have no issues using WhatsApp normally, but 2 years ago I discovered I had to manually split long videos myself in order to upload them to my status, I did do it for a time, then I stopped. It’s now 2022 and I still have to manually split long videos if I want to upload the whole thing to my status. I sure do hope the reason you haven’t added a feature to automatically split long videos into segments for WhatsApp status, isn’t because the world will explode if you do. If that’s not the case, then that’s all I’d like to see. Boy would it save me some time. Great app btw, definitely won’t stop using it unless you do something horrible…. Like kill a child

Still not syncing contacts since iOS update months ago. When IOS updated several months ago, one of the features that was affected on WhatsApp was the option to sync contacts. I called Apple then and they informed me that each app provider must update their security profiles to be compatible with the new IOS. There have been 2 updates of IOS since then and still, WhatsApp hasn’t got with the program. Utility of WhatsApp has gone down as I have to research each contact to try to even place a call to them. Numbers that are in my phone book don’t register so it’s difficult to know which contact is which without that extra step in research. Furthermore, I can’t save new numbers directly from WhatsApp to my phone. This is quite frustrating. I have never left a review on this app before and decided that 5-6 months of this is enough. Can you please update your app to resolve this issue with iPhone!

Just a minor issue that’s really problematic. Sometimes my messages can’t go through on time and it’s takes forever for them to receive it. When I text my friends who own Samsung devices, the message won’t go through even though they’re still online. It usually takes about 3 to 2 minutes for the other person to read my message(s). What really bugs me is that once it shows *last seen today at (time)* the message that I’ve sent is delivered, and it’s would show the double check mark. So the person who I sent a message to would only get it if they exit out the app. Plus, no matter how much messages you send to that person, they will never receive it until they exit out of WhatsApp. Please fix this issue🙏🏼. It makes it really hard to communicate, even when it’s an emergency.

New update needs a new update. The new update has made it difficult for those with visual impairments to comfortably use it or has made it so they will ultimately choose to not use it at all. It needs an option to go from the dark version to a light version. The color blocking for the chat list being changed has heavily affected to ability for some to see the separation clearly. There needs to be a better way to report said issues. The AI is great in most cases but there should be an option for live personnel to eventually provide proper customer support when AI isn’t capable of giving the users the resolve they are looking for. Before this update WhatsApp was a 5 star for myself and those close to me. But this update quickly changed that. I’ll gladly remove my 1 star and update it to a better review based on how this review is received. Thank you to anyone reading this and has a hand in a fix for users with the same issue. It’s will be greatly appreciated 🙏

.. I've done nothing wrong and WhatsApp is my main messaging and communication app, use it to study, work and most important to keep in contact with my immediate family members who live far from me in another country, i have never done anything illegal or against their policy on there and I'm desperate to get my account back. And I've not used any unofficial app I've always only used the official app. At this point I don't even know yet if it's a permanent or temporary ban I've sent hundreds of emails since this happened more than 6 days ago, l've tried everything I could imagine to get in contact with support and I've not received a single reply. I have not know from my family for days because of this and is starting to frustrate me more, the only option I have left is keep sending messages through Instagram and Facebook as well and even post this here because I don't know what else I can do since this was obviously done by mistake. I cannot change my phone number because this number in linked to way too many sites.

Banning Of Numbers. I was using WhatsApp alright until i woke up one morning to meet the message that my number has been banned from using WhatsApp. I haven’t downloaded any third party apps and my account is free of scam or any form of spam. No one has reported my account either and all of a sudden my number has been banned. I requested a review but was told there is nothing they can do about it and they had no reason to give to me as well for banning my number from WhatsApp. The only option i have now is to sign up with a new number and this apparently that means i’ll loose my previous texts and chats with friends from my contact and this is really bad!! I tried signing up again with the same number and I was told to wait for 12 hours to be able to verify my number with the one time password (OTP). Even after waiting all that while, I still couldn’t get my account unbanned and I’ve sent various emails to the support team but still no positive feedback. Where is the Credibility??

I have a huge problem with this app. Ok whatsapp why are so you put exit when you have no space literally what if yo have no service I literally had no service and then your like oh no space exit what if someone has a problem and needs my help then I fixed that problem and deleted photos but then I noticed when I clicked on camera or mic it says to go to setting to enable it and I never unable it and then it takes me to the setting where it says WhatsApp and it says nothing to enable a camera I search it up and it says to go to some photo thing so I can turn it on WhatsApp the photos and mic and it shows nothing all it shows is apps that have requested to access to you will appear hear please fix this I did nothing to WhatsApp I like it but this is frustrating

Plenty of room for improvement. As an avid user of social internet media , I found WhatsApp is lacking in many convenient features offered in other apps. I use Facebook when I want to express some thoughts, events etc. But FB Messenger is not efficient in quick text, so I still resort to 20 years old practice in text msg like in Nokia phones. WhatsApp is subservient to the features offered by WeChat. Understood that WeChat is by Tencent in China, nevertheless the features are amazing. The Moment posting functions are like Facebook post. The conversation wether individual or in chat groups are more user friendly than WhatsApp. It allows recalling a wrong message sent in mistake. Attaching files and emojis are awesome. My only complain is that once viewed in one device the message cannot be reviewed in an other, which FB allows all history conversation once logged in. I lived in America over 47 years. I highly recommend friends to use WeChat for daily contacts over other apps.

Eh! I guess it’s good for someone else.. I don’t particularly like the way they do things on this platform. They claim to be secure and all but they are way up in your business for the most part and they are really rude to you if you need help with anything. To me they are just another version of Big Brother like the rest of their platforms are. I barely use any of them anymore because they have a funny way of seeing things that are really important to me. I know that in my country life used to be extremely racist and misogynistic etc but at least we had a little privacy and freedom. Or maybe I am not remembering it correctly. I don’t know, I just don’t feel like I have any of those things on these apps. I’m not even allowed to use profanity in front of an AI! I mean, come on! It’s a machine! I’m sure glad to know we’re about to ascend into the 5th dimension and out of this matrix. Lol I hope it doesn’t get worse than this one.

Awful old and unsafe.. It is asinine that numbers I do not have saved in my contacts and from other countries at that are able to call me and have been calling me nonstop at all hours. It’s entirely archaic to not be able to silence calls entirely and to have that many settings missing from being able to be customized. These creeps have some how found my number because of whatsapps trashy old system and have been abusing the fact that I cannot mute calls separately and have to individually report and block all of them. My do not disturb settings are set because in case of an emergency if someone needs their call to get through to me I will hear it ring the second time. However because of this stupidly underdeveloped app, random strangers from across the world have been disrespecting what should be a feature to keep my family safe and have been calling me at all hours because whatsapp is trash when it comes to privacy and safety and because they are behind on customizing your settings. Now to mention how stupid it is to have this ghetto app integrated onto my actual phones call logs.

SCAMMERS LIVE HERE. This app is full of fake accounts and scammers. Do not believe ANYONE on a dating app who asks you to move to talking to them on WhatsApp. I nearly had my entire account stolen if I hadn’t looked up popular whatsapp scams online first. If you are asked to go to WhatsApp, do not share your photos or your personal info like full name or date of birth or location proper. If things seem fine and then they send an emoji that makes no sense, do not bother opening the message. Immediately uninstall WhatsApp because the emoji will try and crash your WhatsApp and if you force close it without removing it first, it will crash your phone and then the scammer has full access to everything on your phone. I thought everything was fine until this guy sent me a cow emoji on a post about me telling him I hoped he had a good day. When I opened my WhatsApp the entire screen went blurry and I couldn’t maneuver the app, so I just went to the home screen without closing it, and then completely removed WhatsApp. I have had far too many people on dating apps try to get me to just use WhatsApp with very suspicious habits. Do yourself a favor, don’t do it.

Please move channels off-screen.. Giving 3 stars, only because overall, I love WhatsApp…, but this is simply unacceptable. I am part of a large conservative group of people who is on the verge of getting rid of Whatsapp altogether. Some already have deleted their WhatsApp. This is all taken place since the “channels” were put on the WhatsApp home screen. I was determined to ignore the channels as they were simply an annoyance to me, and kind of in the way of viewing the daily updates of my friends and family. They were an annoyance, but one I could put up with, in exchange for the convenience and enjoyment of having Whatsapp as an option for communication. But then today I came on, and there was an unavoidable pornographic channel right in plain sight. I wasn’t able to find how to delete it either. Unfortunately that crosses a line for me, and many, many others in my life. If you don’t make a change, maybe in the content you allow on the channel icons/cover pics or the placement of the channels altogether within the app, I fear, I may need to follow the course of the many gone before me. Please consider moving Channels off the screen with an option to go to it whenever the user pleases, but only when they choose. Even better though, would be to have much higher standards for what you allow your channels to place as their cover photo. Thank you so much for your consideration!

THESE BUGS ARE ANNOYING!. Firstly I’d like to commend u guys for creating such a fantastic updated version by including voice notes recording to WhatsApp status, to be honest it’s so good. But it’s got few bugs and you’ve got to fix them; 1) once I go offline and I get back online I won’t see any status that was posted while I wasn’t online and it’s heartbreaking especially for business owners like us, we post goods available for sale and most of our customers are unable to see them and patronize us because they were not online the moment we updated our status. 2) As a business owner I have lots of contacts of customers but due to the traffick on the app my WhatsApp hangs really bad I find it difficult to post on my status and if atall I try to it take up to 1hr before my post finally get uploaded. Pls this is really frustrating pls fix it before I start considering abandoning WhatsApp for another social media app that doesn’t glitch. Thank you.

TAG FEATURE SHOULD BE ADDED WHEN UPLOADING ON STATUS.. I’ll suggest that contact should be able to tag people on their status , because sometimes people upload your pictures and you don’t end up seeing it within 24hrs when it disappears ... but if a tag feature is added , I can easily upload a picture and tag whosoever is in it and even though he doesn’t end up viewing all his contact status he will definitely see mine and I get a “thank you” This happens mostly on birthdays when a lot of people upload a picture of you and you can’t view all contact status to know who and who uploaded your picture so you can thank them... but with this tag feature ... contacts can tag who is in his/her story and the person get to see it ... Thank you

Bring back our old stock WhatsApp features including new features too. Please I'm giving WhatsApp 3 star because of the recent iOS update it's not so good to be honest. Talking of the status update I can't select and delete all my status updates at once I can't even search for the particular status I wanna view. It's hard to now navigate through WhatsApp like it used to be like noo we don't want this please return WhatsApp with the old status update style. The new update is cool and stuffs but please there are some things that makes WhatsApp special you're taking them away already Mark! Work with your team and make WhatsApp a better place for us and bring back our old stock WhatsApp features including the new WhatsApp features too. WhatsApp is cool if you retain the old quality but add new features to it. That's why iPhone is still the best still the same old Apple but new features on every new phone released. Mark and the Meta team please create a better WhatsApp.

Suggestion. Hello whatsapp team. Can you remove the feature of not seeing the person online ! As this feature is misleading and not good for relationships and it caused me many problems why you dont let the other person see when the person is online while chatting this was the worst update you have done. Also why dont you add a feature for stopping people from sending voice messages as i dont prefer voice messages. Your only focus is to add features for people to hide o WhatsApp! You lost the main purpose of WhatsApp as it is a chatting application in which i have the right to know if the person is online or not and if they read my messages or not! Why you give a chance for people to mislead others on this application why you add deactivated for people to hide . Why dont you hide your application forever so we find a better one to use instead of an application that causes problem between couples.

Best App Ever!. There is not enough text space to write down everything I love about this app, nor do I have the time to write it all down!! Suffice it to say, I wish I could get everyone in my contact list to use this. For work, we have a record of all of our conversations, which in my line of business, this has been a really good thing for us. Also, you can see when the person read the message. Being able to back up conversations to the Cloud has also been useful. One of the things I’m most impressed by the Developors of this app is that they are constantly updating the app with new capabilities. Like I said, there are several things I could continue to write about how much I love this app. Suffice it to say, it’s one of the best Apps in my phone and I’m a hard critic when I comes App reviews.

Not impressed. I recently bought an iPhone 14 pro max! I switched from a Samsung galaxy note! In my world I am American and my wife is Dominican! We use WhatsApp daily to speak to one another! Often I copy and paste in conversation because my Spanish is mediocre at best! I itch my Samsung phone I could copy multiple messages at one time and paste to my translator to keep up with the pace of conversation! With Apple that piece of functionality isn’t there! I just don’t think the Apple people understand or have done enough research as to why certain things are important. To copy one message at a time has brought our conversations back to the stone ages! I really like my iPhone! But this is consistent in many applications but it really means something when using WhatsApp!

Full communication…period. This was my first time purchasing with this company, and because I am a beginner with wigs I chose wigs that I should maybe have waited for the opinion of My teenage daughter, L O L the bottom line is when I returned. The three weeks was concerned with how the return process worked. From the initiation up until at this point, I’m in the phase of inspection, there has been full communication with this company in regards to the return. This communication was so strong and positive. It invited me to buy another wig which I love and now I am ordering more wigs, thank you very much for a positive experience. This is the site my daughter swears by and truthfully after she finished with her wigs, she gives them to me and I love them all so now I am buying for myself. You are awesome.

Anytime Anywhere App - WhatsApp changed the way we communicate.. WhatsApp will go in history as an App which change the way across the globe how we communicate. Just downloaded as a chat app to connect local friends planning weekend meetup. Now No international calling cards, all my family and friends, I call them via audio and video calls via WhatsApp. For Work, Professional Network, Professional Network, for connecting with people of same geographical area, same interest I manage more than 1500 different WhatsApp groups. WhatsApp you are amazing. I am still waiting for the feature when Admin can delete messages posted by spammers in groups and remove and delete a spammer from all groups with single click. Wrote to WhatsApp Team few times and still waiting for that Admin Privilege. Thanks WhatsApp, you have become “Anytime Anywhere App” for billions including me.

Broadcasting Should Be Made Easy. #1. Bring back the hidden archived chats ! It’s for personal security and privacy ! Staying hidden was waaay better, please bring it back and just find another way of notifying the user if there’s a new message from the hidden archive. If it’s not by default at least it should be put in settings where you could activate & personalize user experience. #2. Selecting a list from your contacts to broadcast a message to is not an easy task especially for those of us who have lots of contacts list. I think we’ll be way better off if we had the option to “auto / multi” select all (256) contacts at once, rather manually doing it, It gets really boring at times. Also increase the total number of contacts who can receive a broadcast message at a time. (256) ain’t enough. Thanks

Bluetooth/Airpod mic update suggestion. I would like to humbly suggest an update in the name of users who use Bluetooth AirPods. The microphones on these devices are terrible for recording voice memos. People never understand what I say. It would be good if it were like Instagram. On Instagram, when you record a voice message it utilizes the iPhone mic instead of the AirPod mic even when using the AirPods. When I am having a conversation with someone via voice memos on WhatsApp, I have to turn off Bluetooth, then record my voice memo. After I’m done recording I have to turn Bluetooth back on. It goes on and off indefinitely until I am done with my conversation. So with that it would be awesome if we had the option to turn off the Bluetooth/AirPod mic only in a setting or just update it to be like Instagram where it records on the iPhones mic and only plays back on the AirPods. Thank you so much!!

Update needed to improve WhatsApp. We should have the option to set our WhatsApp status to be viewable only once. I strongly believe that implementing this feature would greatly enhance the user experience on WhatsApp. Currently, when we share a status, it remains visible to all contacts for 24 hours, which may not always be ideal. Allowing users to set a status for one-time viewing would provide more control and privacy over our shared content. This feature could be particularly useful for sharing personal updates or moments with specific individuals or groups without the concern of it being visible to everyone for an extended period. Overall, introducing the ability to set one-time view status would undoubtedly contribute to making WhatsApp a more versatile and user-friendly platform.

**UNSAFE DO NOT USE**. My account and multiple people I work with all had our accounts hacked on the same day. WhatsApp claims that when you verify your phone number, any accounts still logged in on other devices will automatically log off, and they will have to verify your phone number. This is not true, for the people that hacked our workplace was still able to use our numbers and impersonate us. We have screenshots and a record of the times on Reddit. Not only did they take over our phone numbers, but they also changed the six-digit security pin and the emails associated with our accounts. Customer support does not exist. There is nobody to talk to. You can send an email, but you’ll get an automated reply. They said that you could wait seven days to log into your account without a six-digit pin and delete your account that way. So while you wait the seven days, they have full access to your account and number. WhatsApp is only end-to-end encrypted, meaning all messages are stored on the device that initially sent the message. Everything else can easily be exploited to gain access to your account. This severe security flaw has been used repeatedly with the addition of zero customer support.

Camera takes fuzzy photos every time. WhatsApp in general is fine. But every photo I take in the app is fuzzy; and more zoomed in than my normal photos app. It’s like they are putting camera in video mode and taking a screenshot. I guess this is part of their cross platform library but still, I wish it would let the camera app use more native and high quality functionality. Additionally, it’s wayyy too easy to send things to the wrong person. You can’t remove people from “recently contacted” or “frequently contacted” prompts around iOS for sharing. I’m terrified I will send my girlfriends brother something immodest because his name shows above hers even though our chat volumes are way different. WhatsApp is a globally loved tool but has some pretty strange UX issues given its financial backer and experienced staff. I will continue to use it as most of the world doesn’t have iMessage; but if they did; I don’t think I’d miss the WhatsApp app that much.

I can't send picture from iPhone X. iPhone ex I can't send a picture I can't change anything in the picture I can't write anything in the picture because the frame is a large then I can get the frames bigger the frames of the pictures bigger then the screen please fix this problem because I can't send picture from iPhone X ⬆️ Now it's fixed this is update for this I have other problem sometimes everything applaud when I'm inside the app and I can't make everything move until I push volume up volume down and power to shut down the iPhone this is coming between every week every two weeks inside the app everything is freezing Hello, WhatsApp does not work with me now and I cannot move anything inside it as long as I am connected to the internet, whether through Wi-Fi or through 4G and it does not move until I close WhatsApp, then close all communications and activate flight mode, then enter, do not move inside the application and do not send to anyone

Requested access to photos. I had a pop up from WhatsApp requesting access to all photos. I can't even remember the last time I used the app (it has been over a year) and at the time the pop up was displayed I was browsing in Safari. Since I didn't expect the pop up I mindlessly clicked Allow and then immediately went into settings to revoke all photos access. WhatsApp should not be requesting access to all photos out of the blue. I'm giving 4 stars because the app worked fine as far as I remember. I wanted to report the issue to WhatsApp but have not found a way to do that so am attempting to let somebody know by writing a review. I'll probably delete the app now though to avoid future occurrences. It makes me suspicious of what it could possibly be doing in the background without my knowledge because I didn't do anything that should result in WhatsApp wanting access to my photos.

New Updates Are Trash. First: Before i was able to see the # of people that saw my story without having to log into the actual story….. now I cant… what are you doing? You’re making WhatsApp into a little version of Facebook, did you see how many stars Facebook has on Apple Store? It’s almost -1 on top of the fact you can’t even express yourself cause y’all block our accounts….ridiculous!!!!! Second: I do not want any channels. I stay away from social media not to have to see any of these ridiculous celebrities and their nonsense…. Now i have BadBun ny displayed to be followed…… why? You need to make an option for people to TURN THESE OFF! I didn’t like it on Facebook and I don’t like it here. It’s gotten to the point i don’t even want to have WhatsApp anymore and I’ve had it for over 12 years……. Stop trying to perfect this and perfect the signal and audio/video quality. Some of us are old school and don’t want to look into celebrities…. I only watch my contacts stories…. Third: If you keep adding more “technology” to this app a lot of people will stop using it…. Mark my words…. We liked the SIMPLICITY of the app, how easy it was for us to communicate with our families in other countries…. Now it’s like i said in the first paragraph “a little version of Facebook” we don’t want that….. we want silence and privacy…. Not that we can have all that with y’all anyways…..

A huge bug on iOS version. Today I updated the latest version and I am able to write the review. I reached out to help multiple times regarding this issue but of no use. Such useless service. Now about the issue, you messed up something with iOS version. I am unable to change my number on WhatsApp. It always says I am not using the official WhatsApp, when I reached the help, your team gave me a link which redirects me here again and I don’t see any option to install as I already have the same app installed it allows me only to open. Till yesterday I could not even write this review. Whenever I clicked on write review, it used to say I am not owning this app. As I updated the app today, I am able to write the review now that means your team fixed something with this update. Next issue, as part of the above issue I took the backup my chat history to iCloud and deleted the account, hoping that will clear any glitches but while doing it WhatsApp completely deleted the backup from iCloud. How can WhatsApp delete my backup without asking for confirmation? This is ridiculous. I should be able to download the chat history with any other number.

PLEASE HELP. I need to communicate with friends and family outside the country. I just got a new phone, and I choose to make a new WhatsApp account, it worked perfectly fine for the first three days I had it, then I accidentally deleted the app, so of course I downloaded it back. The a screen pops up that says "agree to terms and conditions", I press yes, then another thing appears and has a little thing to put your number in,when I put in my number, a tab popped up that says "NUMBER CONFORMATION", then states my number, and says "is your phone number above correct?" I press yes, (because it was) and the it just goes back to the original screen before that says "WhatsApp will need to verify your account. Carrier charges may apply." I don't know what this means and why it says that. I've never done anything wrong and it's a brand new account and number. I use this app ALL THE TIME for texting my friends and even work. Please verify my account WhatsApp and then let me access it. PLEASE

Don’t update... Am begging you. With this stupid new update, Let me just try to be brief: •You can’t delete multiple statuses anymore, you have to delete one by one, it’s a very long and exhausting process if you post a lot •You can’t mute statuses anymore, it’s now impossible •You can’t preview a status, thanks to the update, it’s also now impossible •You can’t search for someone’s status, you have to scroll till you find them, feel sorry for those with over 500 contacts •Channels are being forced onto users, literally you can’t enable or disable them, they’re always there and they’re annoying to look at, I follow no channel and I wish I could get rid of the channel tab from my WhatsApp, no one and I mean no user in there right mind asked for channels, this was WhatsApp, not Telegram not Instagram, WhatsApp is a place for close friends and Family, not a place for me to follow Celebrities and Companies... we already have enough apps for that. •If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it - When will Companies learn? To be honest I feel like they might charge users and make all the features they removed a premium subscription. The greed Big companies have nowadays, it’s no longer about user experience, it’s now about how to milk the most money out of a user’s pocket. I won’t be surprised if they do this •They added useless features that people will never use and removed useful features that people use on a daily

Incredible. I really love this app. It's incredible how you can talk with anyone around the world without paying actual money. There’s nothing wrong happening with my version, the camera works well and shoots good photos. There are some things that would make this app the best messaging app. The first one is that when you mute a group chat there should be an option that allows you to mute it forever, same goes with the real-time location. When you create a group, others shouldn’t have the option to kick you from the group, and there should be an option to make someone not be an admin without having to kick the person and adding them again. Also, I really want the GIFs to have their own spot so you don’t need to go to Photos and Videos and then click GIFs. Also, make a DRAWING option. Well, that’s all. Thanks for this amazing app.

App issue. 😵🤚🏻Hey whatsapp! I'm having a problem . I've uninstalled whatsapp for one reason and that is due to lack of storage..but later when I went to appstore to install whatsapp again, It appears that the app is already been installed before i even install it again..so there's an open button but when i press the button it didn't open..please help fix this problem or could anyone help me with it..the app does not appear in homescreen either..but when i went to general in the settings and then to storage and type 'WhatsApp' on the search bar it turns out that the app is still there but the thing is that the logo has changed to an error file that look like it's being installed...when i taped on it and did ofload stuff and all it still didn't fix the issues..and just below ofload option there's an option to delete the app and that still don't fix too..restarting my iphone still don't fix any of this.. please help me fix this.

WhatsApp freezing on iPhone X. recently I've been having some trouble with it on my iPhone X. It freezes once I open it and no matter how long I wait for, it doesn't unfreeze. Force quitting the app, restarting my phone of powering the phone off then putting it back on after some time doesn't help. sometimes have a few seconds after relaunching it to move around before it freezes again and that It helped me resolve it the first time it happened by deleting over 40 GB of media from chats. Now it's started freezing on launch again and I can't even successfully delete any media from my WhatsApp to try to fix it. have a lit of free space on my phone by the way, so I'm not sure what the cause is. It happens so suddenly. One moment I'm using it, the next moment, it won't work no matter what. still see the notifications from messages coming in, but can't do anything about them.

Banning issue. I started using WhatsApp because a couple of friends used it. I created an account with my personal phone number and I sent three messages to a friend saying that I have finally gotten an account and for them to have a good night. That was all. The next day I see that my account is “not allowed to use WhatsApp”. I think oh maybe it has to do with some privacy or contact restrictions I have on my phone. No. I look through all restrictions I could possibly have, none are turned on. All I sent to that friend was notifying them that I got the app and for them to have a good night. No cursing. No explicit language. No explicit photos. Nothing that would trigger their terms of service yet I got banned. I tried deleting and re-downloading the app, but when I enter my phone number the ban message was still there. I appealed to get my account unbanned earlier today and granted I may get a reply from them later. But it is still extremely annoying that this happened. I’ve seen other replies, talking about the same thing. Can someone please tell me what I did to get my account banned because I have absolutely no idea.

My WhatsApp issues.. I’ve got a lot of problems with my WhatsApp app. First of all why every time i add stories then when I went back and deleted em other people still can see em? Today’s been 3 years since I started using WhatsApp but it still the same why i have to update my WhatsApp app every once in a while? And the main thing I noticed is even when I blocked someone i can read their stories and the can read mine as well sometimes i got very upset and one thing i also noticed is when I’m talking to someone on WhatsApp my background always looks black or blank and it won’t let me do nothing. Please guys do something with this app that will makes everyone happy. I use WhatsApp more than any other apps out here please fix these issues for me. Thank you 🙏🏾

Love Everything except.... WhatsApp is an amazing chatting app that conveniently connects you to a broad chat base of your family & loved ones, friends and acquaintances alike at a quick setup without having to generate unique ways to connect with each other. It has a plethora of other cool features like ability to make voice and video calls etc. and now even make payments to each other for a dinner you shared but did not pay for... BUT all this power without the possibility to lock the app or have a password access is a waste of opportunity to complete the offering by WhatsApp. I really feel THEY ARE RATHER LATE. PASSWORD PROTECT OPTION at starting the app window IS MISSING AND should have been there like yesterday ... it’s a simple feature addition but gives many people the safety they want to protect their communication and today communication is everything!

From Bad to Worse. What was once a wonderful secure platform is fast becoming a laughingstock ever since it was touched by Facebook. So thoroughly disappointed. Relatives abroad had told me that Facebook is phasing out WhatsApp but demands that we give them all our contact details; I’m not for that. Apparently, In the UK, WhatsApp was given customers until the first week of February before they close an account if the customer refused to except terms to the detriment of customer privacy. Now there is a delay to this change? It’s still going to happen so why the delay? Could it be that this delay is to collect our information anyway without a permission, anyway? I have now started looking for a replacement to WhatsApp. I am sorry to be parting company with you but it isn’t the secure independent platform it once was and the quality has progressively deteriorated. To be honest, if I could opt for zero stars that would be the level at this point. I’ve been trying to speak to others over the platform but I’ve spent more time trying to reconnect or redial and it’s just not worth it. Another competitor bows out.

WhatsApp- A Great End to End Encryption Platform. I am particularly fascinated with WhatsApp because of its versatility and agility as far as social media platforms are concerned. It takes customer privacy and security into great context and go out of their way to protect that customer information from 3rd parties and hackers. I have never heard of a hack or security breach into WhatsApp security systems. Overall the App has been great and has eased the way the world has connected via talking and sharing digital and graphical data. The only downside to WhatsApp is that when you lose your device or are out of storage and uninstall the app, you typically lose all your previous chats and data. I would have been great if WhatsApp had an option for optional storage space for sale, for folk to backup their communication and social media data. Thank you

Appalling Experience! Arbitrary Number Suspension by WhatsApp!. During my recent travel to a foreign country, WhatsApp shockingly suspended my phone number without any valid explanation. As we're aware, in many parts of Europe and Latin America, businesses rely heavily on WhatsApp for customer communication. In fact, I was explicitly advised by the hotels in Peru to use WhatsApp as the primary means of contact during my stay. Right in the midst of providing crucial information to the hotel for my pickup arrangement, WhatsApp abruptly disabled my number. I promptly submitted a review request to reinstate my number, but to my utter dismay, WhatsApp not only failed to address the issue but completely banned my number! I found myself stranded in the remote mountains of Peru, desperately needing to contact the hotel for pickup. Unfortunately, the hotel didn't answer my phone calls, and I couldn't communicate in the local language. To make matters worse, this happened just as the sun was setting. The timing of WhatsApp's arbitrary number suspension couldn't have been more disastrous, leaving me in a state of extreme distress with no means of reaching the hotel.

Too easy to call people by accident. The app is really great and connects me with my contacts all over the world. It makes it easy to stay in touch. You can text and even call for free. Doesn’t get any better than that! The only thing I would change is how easy it is to call people by accident. It happens all the time. I wish they would hide that button behind the profile page. This is mostly a texting app, do we really need that button on the first page?Even on an iPhone you have to first click the i button from the message page to call someone. It’s smart. Another issue is that the app distorts the quality of pics and videos after they are sent. I often receive videos with delayed sound and fuzzy images. I have to ask my contacts to send me those through other apps so I can actually get the proper sound. Please fix and it will be the most perfect app!

Have an issue witmy whatsapp account. Suddenly i was unable to open the application and I tried again and again but it work and i am ao worried about datas and deleted the application and restored it again and it worked fot one hour and of course all my data history was not in the application and whike I tried again to restore the backup from iCloud it suddenly stopped functioning again and it shows a message that you have been temporarily banned and you will be able to use WhatsApp after six hours and when six hours was over I opened the application and with a minute it again gave the same message you have been temporarily banned and you will be only be able to use WhatsApp after six hours and this is still the same situation I am facing and i am much concerned about my data's last history I have important informations and attachments which I am unable to get back . And actually I am not sure if my account was hacked or it's mistake of WhatsApp.

They Now Banned Phone Numbers Everyday. Before, they don’t banned your phone number until maybe so much people report your phone numbers maybe when you are broadcasting fake things or maybe scammers that are sending spam messages or fake messages to scam people, but right now, since this new person took over WhatsApp, they will just seat down, and you will be logged out of WhatsApp, you will see a display messages telling you you have been logged out because someone has logged into your device in another place. They will now display (Verify, or Cancel ). When you verify, you see a message telling you , you your phone number has been banned from using WhatsApp. This is so bad , it’s not nice at all. You can’t just seat down and begging to banned people’s phone numbers for no reason. Same thing they do to you ok facebook, your facebook will not do anything bad , you will see that , your facebook account has been suspended. Not nice at all. It’s annoying. Please , Mark Zuckerberg, stop this.

Privacy concern. WhatsApp is one of the best messengers, the fastest and most efficient, but I have a problem. I can not stop showing a call made through the application in the search history (spotligth) of the iphone. it doesn't matter from where you delete the call, not even deleting the contact at all from the iPhone, It always appears the last time you called that contact in the spotlight search if you call it with WhatsApp. This phenomenon does not happen with the native application of iPhone calls, deleting them from the history deletes them from everywhere and there is no trace of it in the spotlight search. This little detail does not happen with WhatsApp. I have had personal problems because of it, I hope you know what Iam talking about and solve this. Regards.

Whats wonder. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the creators of WhatsApp. Your incredible creation has truly made a significant impact on people's lives, allowing loved ones to feel closer to each other, regardless of the distance. It brings back memories of a time when making international calls to my home country used to cost a staggering $3.40 per minute and that was in the 90’s money value. Thank you, WhatsApp makers, for making communication more accessible and bridging the gap between loved ones.

Piece of advice. In your next update, you should include a search option in the community section. People would be able to search for communities around them with also already having the option to create one. For example : The search could be like ( football community, basketball, hiking, camping, beach, cruising community) and so on.. This would help people find communities where they feel like they belong.

Add a ‘like’ button, give option of prioritising some notifications over others. It would be really great if you could use an emoji /thumbs up etc symbol to agree to someone. Instead, if you’re in a big group, you get every tiny boring notification just because someone needed to show they agreed with something, when you could have had just something like a ‘like’ button. The consonant notifications in group chats are very annoying. I know you can mute, but you never know if something is important or not until you’ve read it. If you made a like button and then an option to mute notifications for reactions (likes, dislikes etc), it would make this app a lot better, thank you.

Great app. Needs more archiving options.. I love this app to keep in contact with overseas friend and family. It would be great to be able to permanently archive an active group chat. Turning off notifications and muting the chat helps as long as you’re not actually using the app. However if you’re using it the number of messages still appears next to the chat and the chat always stays at the top of your list. The only other way to not see the chat is to leave the group which can be awkward. Please make this a feature in the next version. And also a way to organise chats under different categories/tabs would be awesome.

Disappearing Messages in Group Chats…. Hello Team, We now have Disappearing Messages feature in WhatsApp, where we can set the older messages to auto-disappear after a certain time duration. In Group Chats, once it is set, this gets set for the complete group, I.e., all members of that group. Now, a certain Group Chat can have LESS importance for few Members, and can have MORE importance for other Members. Members in first category want the messages to Disappear, but the members second category do NOT want the messages to Disappear. So, suggestion is, is it possible to enhance the feature, so that individuals in the Group Chat can set their own Message Disappear timeline preference based on their need, without affecting the other members of the group. It’ll be similar to “Delete For You” and “Delete For Everyone” options available while deleting a post in the Group Chats. Happy to clarify, if there are any queries. Regards, Sumant

Amazing app, but could use some work.. I think whatsapp is great but I’m the camera they could add some filters. Not too many, just stuff like black and white (mono). As well as this they could add a like button on the Status section. So even if you don’t want to comment, you can still like it. This is so the person knows that you liked the image or whatever. Because when you see the views on your status you don’t know if people actually liked it or not. But over all it is a great app. Especially because you can see if someone has read your message or not.

Change the default setting of automatically downloading all images into your photo album for on iOS. This feature has been one of the most annoying aspects of WhatsApp. Everytime you download WhatsApp on your device, you are always subject to the default settings when saving your data on your device One of this features is how by default WhatsApp will download any image or video shared in any conversation which you are apart of into your camera roll photo album. This results in images and video which I do not possess appearing into your camera roll. The reason why I don’t like this is because you are not in control of what people share and it doesn’t mean you want their content saved in your camera roll. It’s particularly annoying with GIFs or Memes which are not actually funny and rather offensive. I would like Facebook INC to change this feature to do not download all images and video from conversation as the default preference.

Spam has become a big problem. I’ve used WhatsApp for years and it has helped me to keep in touch with friends and family across the globe. But over the last 6 months I’ve received various spam messages from unknown numbers. The messages are in perfect English and the profile photo is always a young Asian woman. Most people I know in Australia (partner, family & friends) are experiencing the same thing. It’s getting out of hand. My partner and I just received an identical message, only the number was different, both profiles included a photo of a young (different) Asian woman. If WhatsApp doesn’t do something to stop this I won’t continue to use what was once an almost perfect app/experience.

It needs to have iPad cross platform. I love this app, I didn’t use it a while ago but I really think it’s great. I recommended it to a friend and she got it to and also like it. But I only have one problem it doesn’t allow iPads to get the app. Now I have a phone but at the moment I want to be able to use my iPad which for starters has a much bigger screen and allows for more movement. Even when u tried to use an airdrop to try to get it on my iPad it didn’t work. I think getting it on iPad would be great and then my other friends can also get it cause most of them use iPads

Excellent app for communication. All the features are perfect. One kind request. We need an option where it will enable the admin in a whatsapp group to block a particular troubling contact number. Incident: few teachers have created a group to share the educational details the link was shared publicly. One unknown person joins using that link and keeps on sharing bad irritating information and links. But no one is able to block that contact including the admin. If there is a option to sort this it will be great. Thanks ☺️☺️☺️

Thank the Nerds!!. Finally an app that does exactly as it says. Its got very good support. Picture is usually very clear and if your network is good then the app performs brilliantly. Its sound is crystal clear. Its only drawback is it doesnt have pictures to choose from in app so your constantly having to go to your own saved stuff, or use gif apps. All in all well worth downloading now, what are you waiting for you already have the written invitation. Its the only communications app you will ever need.

When used for good and not evil is a great communication tool. The old saying ‘it takes two to tango’ sums up my stance regarding using this app.. although it may be used slightly out of context, my experience has highlighted that the messaging/responses/and sometimes forwarded conversations or even altered images really can’t beat a face to face conversation (IRL or video chat if you must). Dealing with another 3 or 4 understudy’s in the wings, idling the shadows (like a peeping Tom, Mark or {insert name here} highlights both the good and bad points of some of the security features in place within Whatsapp. Suppose that’s what I signed up somehow in the fine print of terms and conditions. 🤫🤓🤪

Great app! Available on more devices please?. WhatsApp is honestly one of my favorite ways to text my friends and there’s very few bugs. It’s a great quality app and I’ve had it for about 3 months now and I haven’t had any problems that weren’t fixed by an update. The only downside is that I recently broke my phone and can’t see the screen at all but I don’t have the money for a new phone just yet, it would honestly be great if it was possible to have WhatsApp expand to iPad and iPod just to make it easier for people that can’t get it because they don’t have a phone or their phones are currently broken. Please expand this to more devices. Thx

Enable Poll Function and Deletable Unread Message. Thank you WhatsApp! It has been such a great tool for communication so far, I thought that it would be great if a poll function can also be integrated in the group chat — especially useful when trying to organise event etc so people can quickly choose the dates etc... or the going or not going rsvp function like we have in Facebook messenger? Also is it possible to have unread messages to be deletable forever for all recipients? It seems that it is currently only deletable within certain minutes after its being sent?

Great for home and International. Works off your phones data plan if you don’t hook to wifi. Data rates will apply as per your phone plan so if you use up your data you will be be charged. When you go international always make sure there is available free wifi and hook to it prior to using Whatsapp, that way you won’t use up your data plan (which happens really quick when outside your own country) and there won’t be any charges. It’s the only app I use when I travel.

Switching between phones!. Hi! Undoubtedly this app is something part of our daily life now and after all these years of technological advancement - it’s a shame that transferring from an old iPhone to new one could so painful !! Whatever the app suggests doesn’t match the reality at all and it’s a very very annoying feel given other popular app like such of WeChat was so quick and easy between the phones to transfer ! I did back up on iCloud and some messages / group chats are missing when transferred but then i had to fall back to old phone - reinstall and get on with usual business chats. I request the concern people to address this issue urgently & see how to make UX of this particular feature more reliable and practical . Thank you and best of luck !

Great for overseas however..... This app is brilliant for overseas travelling and holidays, or just to message friends and family in other countries, as it doesn't need the use of mobile data, only wifi. This could be even better if it didn't need wifi because you could use it out and about. And with a multiple photo selection because one at a time is very hard for large amounts. Overall it is great. I am using it to message family while I am away in another country. I have wifi and it uses no mobile data unless you choose :))

Love it but please add this feature. I really love this app to the extent that I can’t imagine living without it because it’s where I can contact all my friends and relatives who use it very easily! Thank you very much However I’m frustrated that I can’t send videos of large sizes. It’s really frustrating to like a video and benefit from it and then you can’t share it with your lived ones just because of the size limit. So if you could fix that that would be VERY appreciated :)! Thanks again for the lovely app!

Great app but international?. I have done a bit of research on whether whatsapp is free internationally. I am still too unsure that i won’t be charged, and i find the app’s description to be very inconclusive. It says INTERNATIONAL CALLS AND TEXTING FREE but it has the * symbol. Then you scroll down and it says *Data charges may apply. What the hell does that even mean? I’m tired of searching for the true answer and I don’t want to take the chance and lose money. There is no conclusive answer anywhere. I would like to be able to move past instagram dms and talk to my friend internationally using my mobile data, because using my mobile data to go on instagram takes up a lot more data than going on whatsapp. Please can you give me a straight answer?? I would really like to contact my friend more often. Thank you very much, Isabeau (note: this app has been very good for all my other friends who live in australia and my city, especially contacting those who have androids, or just catching up with old school friends in a group chat. I love using whatsapp I would just like to know about the international thing.)

Required modifications like GBWhatsap. Why official WhatsApp don’t offer the features that are available in GB WhatsApp? The modifications I heard in GB WhatsApp is very convenient for users as they provide modifications like reverting the deleted messages, status seen without coming in the list of viewers, changing wallpapers for individual chats etc. I haven’t used it yet as it will be illegal I think to use the modification of original app. But I really hope that WhatsApp could update some coolest features in its new updates as today the most young generation tries to find those modifications in GB WhatsApp and got tricked by fake websites offering those features. Very few in real get success in installing the legitimate go whatsapp.

Flagging my number even though I’ve never had an account before. Would rate this 0 stars if I could. My number got flagged as cannot make an account due to spam (I have never owned a WhatsApp account) I wasn’t mad, surely it was a mistake. I requested a review and they restored my account saying it was an accidental flag, tried to use it, it flagged me again, I was annoyed but I requested a review once again and they said the same thing and “restored” my account. Third time trying to use the app, it flagged my number again. I have to use this for my University work and I am behind on my assessment majorly because of this and I am so upset. I might fail my assignment because of an app not letting me use it, out of desperation I used a friends number who also has never used WhatsApp, and it flagged my account again. I need someone to get in contact with me about this ASAP.

Whatsapp update experience. When you alert your customers that there is a new version, and the current version is about to expire, and you provide a hyperlink for the customer to press thinking that it will take them to the AppStore to update said version, please ensure that link actually works in redirecting customers to the AppStore to update the app. Instead, all it did was exit the app and customers then needed to open AppStore and search for the app… Really frustrating and not helpful. Please improve the experience for the next one.

Excellent app but.... Secure, calls, video calls, txt and group txt. Excellent for international use as only a WiFi connection is required. My only complaint is call and video calls connect too quickly. If you accidentally tap on someone’s name there is no time to disconnect the call and they will receive a missed call. It would be better it was like the iPhones where connection took place after a second or so to give you time to disconnect.

Encryption - end to end. WhatsApp provides great platform for communication for individuals and groups - most users I know believe it is vaulted both ways ie end to end but this is not the case - my understanding that encryption can be lifted in Australia to various authorities on ‘ national security ‘ interests under issuance of a warrant - the trouble is warrants so issued - it is my belief - are handed out like lollipops - without due diligence and consideration for the principles of a Parliamentary Democracy, Rule of Law and Privacy and the consequences when interested authorities abuse the powers so invested in them !

Add photo info!. Hi WhatsApp, This app is really great, I use it everyday and is exactly what I need! It is a basic app for messaging, but with so many advanced features! However, I think a really good improvement for this app would be to have information on photos you send. So if you click on your photo either on a chat or status, you can find out who saved or took a screenshot of it. This would be very beneficial for many users, and enhance the app even more! One more thing that would be great to be able to do is delete photos, even if everyone has viewed it. Every person I’ve talked to wants this feature, and it would be helpful for personal, non business related chats. So once everyone has viewed it, you could still go back and delete it before more people save it. I would love to see these as an addition for WhatsApp, as it is such a great app! Thanks for your time!

Great but…. Read the review. Ok a few things. I love this app it’s amazing for me to text my family and friends. However when I don’t have much storage left it shuts me out of the whole app. The other day I was in a sticky situation and needed to message a friend on WhatsApp who I can’t message on normal message apps. But I didn’t have much storage and it had locked me from the whole app so I couldn’t message her until I deleted so many photos. Another feature which would be a great add on to the app would be timed texts. If you don’t know what I mean by that I mean messages that you can choose when you want to send them by putting them ons timer and they send at that later time. Thank you.

Privacy. The privacy on WhatsApp is incredible, I know you probably don’t have time for young girls but basically my whole year level agrees to make it more like snap, not fully copy right but try and change the status so it isn’t so embarrassing when you add to it👍 Also if you do change it we have all agreed to spread the word, you know tell everyone to get it because it’s better than snap, hahahaha!!! Also you should add a camera simble next to all the chats so you can just click on that and send a specific photo to each chat, instead of changing it in settings every time😫 another good reason is because Snapchat is 17+ or something so basically no one is allowed it, if you include these simple things then it might just be the next big app, isn’t that what you want??? I know exactly what your thinking why would any idiot like me waste all of this time just for a comment? Well because it’s not just me talking about this, it’s the whole freakin school!! Even the teachers, I am only 16, I don’t expect you to just go and change it but at least try!! Why save the best till last, it’s worth a crack isn’t it?? And if it doesn’t work, just change it back no biggy, and I know I have no idea what I am taking about it’s probably a lot harder than I think it is but just have a go!! You only have one life so why not try and live it instead of trying to survive it??? Yours Sincerely, The great idea!!

Great but room for improvement. I use Whatsapp all the time to communicate with family and friends around the world. It’s incredibly convenient and simple and for the most part, has been an absolute pleasure to use. With the latest IOS 11 update however, I’ve noticed the app has become a lot more laggy - particularly when I’m typing a message and I switch to and from the emoji keyboard. The app will often freeze for 15-20 seconds as soon as I have switched from one or the other which I am finding terribly annoying. I would also love if we were able to use Whatsapp on a computer without it needing to be synced to your phone in order to function. Other messaging apps (iMessage, Facebook Messenger, LINE, Kakaotalk) allow this - what’s up, Whatsapp? Otherwise a great app. A couple of minor improvements could be made but it is useful nonetheless. Probably my most-used app!

Unread messages within chats. This app is good and all the improvements have made it better over the years. Can you make a provision for keeping unread messages within chats unread? Currently what happens is that if I open a chat all the messages become read yet sometimes I may want to read upto a certain point and continue from there later. This kind of feature is available in Telegram. Best regards

Badges… fix your app, Meta!!!!. Unread messages badges still disappear if you open the app and then close the app before you open the message within the app. Even worse, if you are chatting to someone and you receive a message in another chat but close the app before you read it, there are never any badges on the app on the home screen! And before I have a Karen telling me to check my notification settings, it has nothing to do with that. The badges work, they just disappear before the messages are being read. This is a known software fault in WhatsApp. It’s been broken for years and there are thousands of people reporting the same issue. I remain unsatisfied by the this app and Meta.

BIGGG ISSUE. First of all, the whastapp customer support is close to NONE. Horrible customer service. The BIG ISSUE is that there is no number/account safety. You can loose your number so quickly, i change my simcard because im in an area that i need another simcard and in the time of 3hours i lost my 4 years account with all my clients loosing a lot of money. When i try to comunicate this with support was imposible. They didn’t even gave me the chance to set an automatic message to my chats or contacts that i was changing number, i didn't even want to change number! Just the sim card for signal. I changed simcards 3 times since i had that account. Now is lost there is a teenager girl on my profile picture talking with my former contacts. If there is any other company there that lunch something similar to whatsapp there and some of my friends are using it, i will switch in a heartbeat.

Latest update malfunction. Hi First of all, would like to say great app, brings the family and friends closer. I am really enjoying this app and thankful for that. But after latest update, my app won’t show any notifications and I won’t know any messages or call until I open the app. I tried changing the notifications settings and reverting back to default, yet there is no change. If you could please find me a solution, I would highly appreciate it. Thanks.

Assigning Purchased Ringtones. I am writing this because,, the suggestion from Apple support, which was to provide feedback, lead me to the App & it’s, Auto Bott’s suggestions for resolving the issue. The issue- Not being able to assign a Purchased Ringtone to contacts on WhatsApp. This had already been established in my discussion with Apple support. 5 BIG ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️for great support by 🍏. Sadly, “Meta” chose to not be supportive. Not a big surprise, not even a little surprise.🤨😔🙄 It’s yet another example of a organisation who believes that, it can treat people with contempt. All I wanted to do was provide feedback that would, in the opinion of both myself and the 🍏support team, added another beneficial feature to the app. Maybe 🤔 they might read their reviews, let’s hope they do. 🤞🏼🙄🤷‍♀️……….

Great but.... Great app but I hate how when I go into the app because someone has messaged me - wether I click on the message or not it would the little 1 that says I have 1 new message disappears. If I forget to open the message - because the one disappears I forget and don’t open the message. I had a message from 3 months ago. I opened the app to do something g unrelated to the message. But because I OPENED the app NOT the message itself- the little notification disappeared. I didn’t remember till recently that I had this message. Please fix this-

Great app!. I think the app is great, but when I look at the messages it has grey and blue ticks, 2 grey ticks means that it has been delivered and 2 blue ticks means that it has been read. The only thing I think they should improve the app is to make as many blue ticks there is as people. Eg. if I have a group chat of 8 but only 5 people have read my text then it should have 5 blue ticks, but if all of the people in my group chat have read it they should make it one tick but another colour like red or something so I know that everyone has read it. But other then that I think this app is Awesome

Whatsapp backup password prompt countdown needed. I have an issue with the disabling of the main Whatsapp system when the password for Backups is being requested. Not me specifically but some elderly family members who were out and about suddenly couldnt use Whatsapp to communicate without having to recall their password (which they didnt have at hand, so effectively lost whatsapp for several hours) There should be a warning or a countdown to let you know the prompt is going to happen shortly, but doesn’t immediately disable whatsapp.

Standard helpful feature missing - please consider implementing. Whatsapp is my go to for communicating with friends & family around the world. The most & only annoying thing is that once you open the app the unopened messages notification badge disappears so it is easy to miss unread messages (whether unopened or marked unread). All other apps keep the notification minus those messages you have dismissed. I would love for this to be improved by the development team as it decidedly makes the app less user friendly & less helpful.

It’s good and nobody is gonna read this. WhatsApp is good and better for sending stuff quickly but it has slight problems such as when I send a photo it goes all blurry and pixelated also it doesn’t say when someone downloads an image that you send which could be a problem for some people Wow hello someone is actually reading my review that’s ✨✨✨amazing ✨✨✨ because you’ve made it here HIII your amazing I would totally give you my number so you can talk to me on WhatsApp but you know stranger danger BYEEEEE 🏠🏡🏘️🏚️🏗️🏭🏢🏬🏣🏤🏥🏦🏨🏪🏫🏩💒🏛️⛪️🕌🕍🛕🕋⛩️🛤️🛣️🗾🎑🏞️🌅🌇🎆🎇🌠🌄🌆🏙️🌃🌌🌉🌁

Auto Chat Backup Not Working. 1. Chat backup used to happen daily when plugged in and connected to wifi. Since the last major release, this has stopped working. Only manual updates work. 2. Add more notification management Please add a way to suppress/silent subsequent messages from the same person/group within a short period. People tend to send messages as they type these days, rather than write a massive paragraph and send at the end. Would be good to have the option to only push notify once every 30 seconds perhaps from the same sender.

Need to be add very important feature. Hii, WhatsApp i want to suggest that please add a new feature to check a particular date chat in this feature we can check any information from our chat which i had before a month. In the absence of this feature sometimes we want a information which we have shared via chat with someone or we want it immediately but it takes too much time to find. So, it will be easy to find if just open a particular chat and search a particular date and get all within a min. I am looking forward for this update. Thanks

Save your excuses. You have some nerve saying people have a lot of confusion about the new privacy policy. No one is confused. We are downright outrageous. So much for promising to keep WhatsApp walled off from rest of Facebook. They made it seem like nothing’s changing now only because data sharing with Facebook had already begun in the policy update in 2016, only then there wasn’t a momentum for switching away from big tech. No point in sticking with you when Signal keeps messages encrypted PLUS no metadata logs, let alone sharing. There’s still a massive user base now on WhatsApp but won’t be long, at least not for privacy conscious users. After all the same founder of WhatsApp made Signal too. Facebook ruins everything it touches. Learn the lessons

Fantastic and would recommend!. Wow! I was honestly very surprised when I got this app that it was going to be this useful and fantastic! I would never not recommend this app to all of you! This app is great for these times especially because you can still talk to friends and family! CoronaVirus is terrible so talking to your friends on This is great! Would recommend to everyone! I would say 7+ for this app! If your parents are worried about this app for you then show them this comment! This app is great for all ages! Recommend by...

Problems with iphone12. I’ve just updated from my iPhone 6 to an iPhone 12. I never had any problems phoning friends overseas on the iPhone 6 but having tried to phone someone in another country this weekend,I could not get through and I don’t know what it said because a message appeared very briefly on the screen before I could even take a screenshot. How can I address this to allow me to communicate with my overseas friends and family with WhatsApp? Normally, I would give this a very high rating but from going to something simple on my older iPhone to now an issue, has just been very frustrating. I have tried to address the problem but it has been very time-consuming and unsuccessful.

Needs an Apple Watch app!. Calls through WhatsApp do not work on Apple Watch. I cannot tell who is calling me which forces me to take my phone out of my pocket to see who is calling. When my phone is on silent this can be rather annoying as I may miss the call entirely. Even Facebook Messenger has the same problem even though it has an Apple Watch app! This could probably be solved by sending a simple notification to the Notification centre when phone calls are being received. If possible, a Garmin-watch-like system would be nice with options to decline or answer calls. I’m not sure if that’s possible with Apple’s SDK but I’d at least like to see simple notifications.

Worst Support of any application. I have emailed to support that in iphone i am getting two different ringtone like for voice call and for video call i am getting two different ringtone and there is no option to change them because video call tone is so scary which i never set and I can’t change it even though i change my ringtone in settings but still it is not changing. When I emailed the support they told me to change message tone 😤 they didn’t even listen to my problem even i have emailed them back and they told we already have gave you solution please refer to it. How come this big messengers company lack in support for user Very disappointed 😔

Great but needs more flexibility. Could you please add more mute settings?? A 24 hour and a 48 hour option would be amazing - 8 hrs to a week is a bit too far of a jump, and not really practical. For example, 48 hours would allow me to mute my work conversation on my days off, allowing me to separate more for my mental health. Right now, my options are mute for a week and risk forgetting to unmute it in time for my next shift, or having to repeatedly mute for 8 hours over my days off if I want some separation, becoming more stressed every time I do - it’s one extreme or the other. Please, some more options would be wonderful. Thank you.

Can you please explain. When we have to update whatsapp how come we go on the App Store and it says this app does not updating I don’t know if this is only my phone or this happens to some one else but could you please fix this and also when our phone is ringing why do we have to open whatsapp to answer a call why can’t we just answer the call outside of whatsapp Overall your app is amazing but if you could fix these things then I would be very grateful

Additional feature?. Hi developers! WhatsApp is super useful, it’s my go-to messaging platform. I use it almost daily, and have rarely ever had problems with it. Clean, simple, easy to use, aesthetically pleasing interface, WhatsApp is great in a lot of ways. One of my issues with WhatsApp, however great it may be, is that the features regarding image sending and editing is extremely simple. I understand that you don’t want to make it too complicated, it is a messaging platform and not an art platform after all. However, I’ve noticed that when trying to mark up images and draw on them I’ll often have a particular colour that I used that I want to reuse, but there is no tool to grab a colour and use it again, and this has been quite frustrating. I’m not saying that you should incorporate extravagant colour pickers or a way to save old colours, that’s unnecessary. I just think it would be extremely beneficial to include a button (perhaps an eye dropper) below the colours that you can use to pick colours from an image or previous lines to match. I’d really appreciate your consideration, as I think it would be very useful. :) Thanks

Voice notes don’t record when connected to Bluetooth device. I love the voice note feature in WhatsApp and use it constantly to connect with friends. However something that happens regularly is that one of us forgets we are connected to a Bluetooth speaker or headphones and then a whole voice note records without sound. It would be GREAT if WhatsApp could build in a feature where it notices if Bluetooth is connected and gives a warning or won’t go ahead with recording the message. Please! Thank you! It’s so sad to speak your heart deeply for 15min only to realize it went into the void. Thanks guys 🙌🏼

Vert. 6 Aug 2018. Love the app, but have found that Siri does not work with this app. When asking Siri to send a message to a contact using WhatsApp the reply is always the same “ mmmm couldn’t find Pat or John or whoever in your WhatsApp contacts” It doesn’t matter which contact name I choose it’s always the same reply. I have checked all my settings, given WhatsApp access to my contacts but still Siri, comes back with the same response. I thought at first it might be my phone (iPhone 6) but after trying it on my friends phone (iPhone 6) same thing Siri could not send a message or ring a contact using WhatsApp on her phone. On her phone the response was the same. I have tried different ways of asking Siri the question. 1. Using WhatsApp ring Pat. 2. Ring John using WhatsApp 3. Dial John using WhatsApp 4. Using WhatsApp dial Steve 5. Using WhatsApp call Steve. 6. Call Home using WhatsApp But I get the same answer “Sorry WhatsApp couldn’t find John in your contacts who would you like to call?” 😪 Regards: Trev

Cut Ties With Oppressors. Switching to better alternatives like Signal. Whatsapp and it’s connection to Facebook’s deal with Jio in India supports those that oppress of minorities - this is not something I can support.

No more privacy. Great and amazing experience until the new privacy policy comes in effect which gonna snatch privacy Starting switching to other app

What's Up with WhatsApp?. Current version is crashing to Home screen repeatedly.

Go to hell :). Thanks to the new privacy policy, we are done with the most boring messengers app in the world!

Becoz of new privacy policy. No privacy

Where’s dark mode?. It works fine. But where’s dark mode? Surely it can’t take this long to implement it? The app sticks out like a sore thumb.

Delete it NOW!. Whatsapp is selling your data and using your private chats and photos for god knows what delete it and move to signal NOW

DARK MODE PLEASE IOS 13. Please can we get a dark mode for iOS 13 ASAP

Pure crap’ fact that we have to deal with fb as well. I’m annoyed that WhatsApp data is being shared on Facebook, some of us like privacy what kind of nonsense is that.

Spyware. Owned by Facebook so you know they’re spying on you.

Recommendation. One annoying thing with whatsapp is the absence of control over accepting a group invitation. Anyone can create a group and add you , giving you no choice to accept or decline . Additionally, the option to block a group just like u block a single user should be available.

No support for dark theme. Support iOS 13 dark theme.

Privacy policy change. No longer face the option to block Facebook from sharing data with WhatsApp. No longer using this app. Breach of privacy

WhatsApp. I love WhatsApp so much I would recommend it to everyone I give it 5 star rating for chatting app’s

Overreaching privacy policy. Asks for far to much personal information.

Missed Call. New updated.. I cannot receive missed call notification...

Needs dark mode. This app seriously needs the option for dark mode. How does it not already. Please update this app to have it. It took apple a long time to finally develop a dark mode option yet it’s taking even longer for this app. It’s almost 2020, get with the times.

Facebook ruined it. Was great, but sharing data with Facebook is a no from me.

Zero stars. Zero stars for forcing us to share data with Facebook. Switching to Signal after 10+ years with WhatsApp. What a shame!

Now shares data with Facebook. The new policy change has user data shared with Facebook. I suppose it was inevitable, but a hard pass for me. Uninstalled.

Compromising personal data.. Compromising personal data without consent.

Dual account support for iPhone XS/ xs max. Please bring in options to run two accounts on 1 phone as the phone is dual sim itself

No Privacy. After I had to accept them getting my contact info, locations and all that stuff I deleted it. I’m not on any social media platform except for Signal now. At least Signal stays encrypted and doesn’t want my info.

Privacy Policy. It’s not new for any social media app for Data collection but, whatsapp should have give a option to opt that it didn’t.

Worst privacy policy. I don’t want you to share my data with any other app, I am going to uninstall your app!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Thanks WhatsApp team.....

Privacy thieves. With this new and stupid decision to crap on our privacy. Goodbye WhatsApp and goodbye Facebook altogether

Great policy. With the addition of their updated policy where they sell all user info to their daddy Zucky, Whatsapp/Facebook are now the worst app an individual can have. Absolutely disgraceful

Dark mode on ios 13. Apple has introduced dark mode in iOS 13. Pls implement dark mode functionality in WhatsApp too that can get controlled by the OS level feature.

I don’t want to share my data with fb. I don’t want to share my data with, I’ll be moving to signal

Harvest personal data. The latest update will harvest all your personal data to facebook

Facebook: It’s not my job to make your business model work. Simple: my data is mine. You forcibly make me disclose it to serve your business model? I’m not a vehicle to make you more money. Everyone - use “signal” if you want an iMessage alternative.

Massive privacy concerns. If you want to share all your data with Facebook and their partners go ahead. I’m deleting this. It’s your information, don’t be the product. There are better, more secure apps.

Not secure. It is not secure

New privacy agreement. Please comment on new privacy regulation. Why so much sharing of information feel like our messages, data, all the information is not safe on whats ap.

Complaint about the new privacy policy. The new privacy policy requires every user to share their data with Facebook and they don’t have an option to opt-out! We have the right to decide what data we want to share and what we don’t! I know WhatsApp is a very widely used application but what Facebook is doing is not right!

Privacy concerns. Unfortunately, cannot continue given the new privacy terms coming into effect on Feb 8th.

Worst app, and data stealer. I’m a what’s app user since 2012. I’m uninstalling now bcz they trying steal my data and share with Facebook. Don’t install this app.

Morally bankrupt. Facebook's privacy policy is incrementally getting worse and eroding user trust. I don't wany personal messaging to be used for Facebook's advertising or their shady agenda of political manipulation.

Security Updated???. Your most recent update, which was supposed include the security update following the NSO group spyware and rolled out Monday May 13/19, makes no mention of it. I am aware Facebook (who owns Whatsapp) has made a server-side change to address this significant security breach however I would like to be informed/assured that the latest Whatsapp update rolled out does in fact address this serious issue.

Absolutely deplorable terms of service. Monolithic companies like this must be shut down. No reason for a user to trust them anymore.

Oct 30th still waiting for dark mode. Where is dark mode? Why is it not compatible with ios native dark mode and why does the app not have an in app dark mode toggle? Did Whatsapp miss the global memo?

Facebook Is Spying on You. WhatsApp is no longer viable for privacy purposes. They’re going to start collecting your metadata as of Feb 2021.

Unsafe. Facebook introduces a new mandatory update to give away even more data of yourself that they can sell. Disgusting.

New update Terms and Privacy Policy. I uninstalled the app. I don’t want to share anything from WhatsApp to Facebook.

Emojis. I think this app is WONDERFUL! But there is some emojis missing, for exemple the GIRAFFE emoji! Some people like me, love giraffes! So please, can you make an emoji giraffe?

Recommendation. Bring the dark mode in whatsapp too....!!!!!!

The same stupid thing of every month. Lots of updates every week for nothing, this is the same app since beginning. Don’t update it anymore if you do not have absolutely nothing to update.

Facebook data grab. On the 8th of Jan 2021 Facebook changed the terms of service for existing users with a popup that went no way to describing the massive data grab (Facebook now have access to your contacts, numbers etc) that users were promised wouldn’t happen when they acquired the app.

Could not pass initial setup. Cannot send SMS to my phone. This really deserves O stars

Update. I have been using WhatsApp for few years now ! Love it ! Yet I have a major issue with this STATUS thing there are some statuses that I’m not interested at all in seeing ( irrelevant , boring etc ) but the friends posting them I actually like them and there is not a tool to be able to remove the status and not being able to see it at all ! Now you can mute them but does not block their statuses at all you keep seeing the freaking status even being mute ! Can you developers make an update where the statuses can be block for certain people without having to block completely the person from WhatsApp please? That would be awesome ! Since muting the status does nothing you still be able to see the status !

Status and new update. I think the only problem WhatsApp have now it's reducing picture quality on status , the way it reduce pictures and videos quality is so bad that one will have to upload and delete so many times before the videos posted can be a little bit clear, pls try and do something about that and also your new update now is so annoying that someone cannot click on the particular picture I posted on my status to delete unless I have to view from the beginning then get to the one I want to view or delete before I can delete or view my post on status, pls kindly take it back to the way it was before its more better and understanding

No Free Samsung to iPhone switch. I wish WhatsApp would actually verify your number and log you back onto your account instead of making a whole new account once you install the app. Exactly how you would do when using the app on a laptop, computer or tablet, just do the same for another phone. The backup didn’t help at all since Samsung is Google Drive and iPhone is iCloud. I’m using my own phone number for WhatsApp so I don’t see why nothing got transferred except for some groups and even then no messages came with those groups either. Really upsetting and I don’t want to pay programs to transfer my WhatsApp data. The app should be more stable than that. This app has nothing to do with the fact that Samsung and Apple don’t want to work together to make transitions easier.

Not working since last update. My app is not working since the last time I updated it, it keeps saying that it needs to recover de chats but when it gets to 10% says it failed, I hit try again and it happens all the times I try. But sometimes when I open the app, it opens all my chats normal, I can even text some people, but then a few moments after it happens all over again and stay stucked at the recover data page. I use whatsapp to work, I have all my chats and people I need to talk to over there, I can’t erase the app and download it back cause if I do it, I will lose everyting, but at the same time it doesn’t work, I need help from the support to help me fix it please!

Starting to hate this. Hey whatsapp it is very important that you guys check out what is going on with this app because recently I’ve been having trouble getting notifications on WhatsApp even calls I can’t even get them when they call me I am getting very tired and I want this issue resolved I just want to let you guys know that when my phone turns off or when the light goes off on the screen and if someone tries to text me or call me does my phone does not ring and I do not receive a notification..... so when I turn on my phone with the home button I really can see the notifications pop up one by one each phone call that I missed pops up as well so what is going on can you please fix this issue please thank you.

Disappointed. I do not like the fact that u guys can just band people for no reason and my WhatsApp I had before was just close friends and family my number was band for a large amount of reports and my personal people will come to me if there’s an issue they won’t report me I am a mom of 3 and I have a clean record very civilized and family oriented I am disappointed in the way I was dealt with and it’s unfair for a person with good morals values and standards have to deal with the fact WhatsApp also messages me saying my number was reported but can’t show no evidence of this so call crime I did when in fact it’s a crime to block someone number and never investigate saying they have to protect the persons who reported me and can’t show me where I went wrong on WhatsApp so my number was deactivated because of something I have no proof of doing I am an honest lady not fake and not spamming on WhatsApp very unprofessional

Customer support is NON EXISTENT!. Edit: was asked to contact their development support!! Guess what?? I got the same automated nonsense replies!!! ABSOLUTELY FRUSTRATED!!! I have been using WhatsApp for years to be honest but recently my back up feature just stopped working it would be stuck at “preparing” for hours and even a WHOLE DAY!! I am running latest iOS version; the app is up to date; I have tons of free GB in my iCloud+ , my iCloud Drive is on (tried the part about turning off and turning on again) but STILL no back up !! Even tried deleting the whole WhatsApp out of my frustration and isolation and then starting new from scratch ! STILL did not work ! Lost all my conversations and STILL no back up is working !! Through all these steps contacted support and all I get are simple two cents replies : “we will check with concerned technicians” / “send screen shots” / “we will get back to you” etc etc Not much help there ! At ALL!! Been weeks Still nothing ! Really disappointed !

What’s app. So this app is great I love it! But the only catch is my dad, he won’t let me do anything and if I have something he doesn’t like he will yell at me and sometimes hit me to, for example: I’m not aloud to have friends he hasn’t met and I’m not aloud to talk to the ones he met outside of school, he constantly goes through my contacts and yells at me for the littlest things he treats my all the guys in our family better than the girls, he also controls my mom but she can’t really do anything about it. I don’t know what to do, I know this isn’t relevant to the app but I just want to tell someone, I don’t know what to do about it does anyone have advice? Also this has been going on for years and it’s only getting worse.

WhatsApps 1 problem. WhatsApp is a really awesome and fun app my best friend made me download and I had known about WhatsApp for a while before I got it but for some reason I didn’t really get the point. But now I’m so happy I got WhatsApp! I can send video messages and cute stickers to my bffs and to anyone anywhere around the world for FREE! And it doesn’t need as much as reception. Another thing I enjoy about WhatsApp is that I can finally do group face times!!! And since I have an iPhone 6 it doesn’t work on FaceTime, by that I mean whenever I try group face time it never shows any faces so I need WhatsApp. And with all that being said I can probably say this, I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO MAKE A GROUP CHAT!!! It’s super annoying because I try making group chats and it disappears!!! SO VERY ANNOYING! But that’s the only complaint I have so ya!

Great reliable, secure app! Only ONE gripe.... I absolutely love just about everything about your ‎WhatsApp app… And I use it all the time to communicate with my two world traveler daughters (and my son) who are literally spread out around the world. I only have one single gripe with ‎WhatsApp, and it is the ONLY reason that I am rating it four stars instead of five. I do not understand why, (with all of the resources available to the developers of an app like this that is so popular), you do NOT have an iPad version of this app available! Everyone in our family who has an iPhone also has an iPad (and there are many), to allow them to see and manage all of our photos and videos in the larger display format. I do not believe that we are particularly unique out there… Please, get the Apple SDK for iPad, and do the work for Pete’s sake!

They don’t value YOUR privacy.. Whatsapp new private policy is basically sharing all your info to facebook, it wouldn’t be shocking that they were doing it all along without telling us. Money hungry corporations want to sell our information and not value our privacy. That’s why Telegram and Signal has received record numbers of new daily users, we’re all witnessing the death of Whatsapp and the birth of a new messaging app that actually values our privacy. Since Facebook has bought Whatsapp, Whatsapp has been a app of full controversy but also a app that is lagging behind new innovation, WiFi Calls are laggy even though your WIFI is strong, and fiber internet. Even though your on a 5G+ Coverage and Whatsapp WiFi calling still lags and disconnects. Whatsapp needs new updates and new innovation and improve their service and most importantly improve their “encrypted” connection and if they care, our privacy. They won’t do any of it, just move to Telegram or Signal, and these apps are GREAT.

Great app!. Hello I would recommend this app because it works perfectly. It’s easy to add your contacts. I have been using this for a while now mostly to communicate with relatives but from time to time some close friends. And it’s amazing! Ok so this is for the developer so I have a recommendation could you add a feature on the calls like when your calling somebody could there be a button to where you can share your screen? It would be quite helpful for many people, so it can be very beneficial. Ok, anyways if your thinking of getting this app I totally recommend it. Have a good day! Oh one more thing for the developer this app takes a lot of storage is it possible if you could minimize that? Ok thanks bye!

TRASH. I downloaded the app since I was leaving the US to travel in Europe. I had the app for about a week when my account got banned. I attempted to dispute but they continued to ban my account. I have used several other messaging apps with no problems. I have never been banned before so this is surprising since I was just messaging family and friends to keep in touch while traveling abroad since I cannot use my AT&T data to avoid over priced charges. It’s also wild knowing all the drug dealers that use the app that my account would get banned. lol. So far whatsapp has been TRASH! Idk, maybe download the app months before leaving the country to avoid an unnecessary interruptions? Not sure. Of course this app does NOT have a customer service number and only refers you to email or to read terms of condition but it never states the reason for banning my account?! They can just look at my messages and realize it’s normal text. But meh. So far TRASH for me.

Best app ever but.... I use it 24/7, it is amazing, works pretty well. I only have one request, please let us be able to disable the camera sound from settings. Just like you can disable the sound it makes when it takes a picture in apps like Snapchat. The only way of getting rid of the noice made by the camera is by turning your ringer off. I use the camera a lot so after a while the sound becomes annoying, leaving me no other choice but to turn my ringer off. Problem is I need the ringer on and it has already happened to me that I miss several important calls or can’t locate my phone when calling because I forget to turn it back on. It would be lifesaving if you could do that please, I don’t think it’s something complicated. It’s a rather simple request. Other from that, great app

Looooooooooooove it!!!!. I absolutely love WhatsApp. I’ve been using it for a little bit over 2 years but have known about it for a little longer than that. I first started using it when me and my brother travelled over sees for the first time and wanted to keep in contact with our family back home everyday so they would know we were ok. I immediately fell in love. I love the fact that you can text, call(both voice calls and video chats) and send pictures for free (regardless of where you are in the world), which saves you a lot of money. One of the things I like the most is that you can send a lot of pictures at a time, whereas you have a limit with regular text messages. I will definitely be using WhatsApp for a LONG time😊

Absolute Waste of a App. If I could give a 0 star rating I 100% would. I downloaded WhatsApp so i could talk to my parents while there were away on vacation across the world. I wake up this morning when trying to call them to a message saying “this account is not allowed to use WhatsApp” and after trying to log back in it won’t let me get past to entering my number page. I know for a fact I didn’t break any stupid guidelines either so the people behind this god awful app just randomly out of the blue decided to lock me out of my account. So if the people behind this app actually take a look at feedback (which clearly they don’t considering they have multiple complaints about this issue) I just want them to know they failed as a company and they should be ashamed and they should be focusing on either A: trying to fix this terrible app. Or B: just take it down from the AppStore so that they don’t waste anyone else’s time.

Review. I hope the developers see this review and like it. I’ve always love WhatsApp. The app is really convenient and it has slog of options to personalize each message thread and profile. What I believe is missing is more control of who can video or voice call a person. There should be an option to block random phone calls. Maybe have an option to set a time frame of when and when not receive video or voice calls. Maybe also add an option of “never” or only allow calls from saved contacts. Lastly, I think that if you have contacts, the contact phone that is set for that person should instead of a profile photo. Not a lot of users puts a profile picture.

It’s a good app but here is how it can be IMPROVED. WhatsApp is a great way for me to keep in touch with my family and friends from around the world. For me, WhatsApp is the go-to app to text my cousins and uncle and aunt in India. The only thing WhatsApp lacks is a WhatsApp iPad app. Other apps like GroupMe have an iPad app. I want to see a WhatsApp iPad app soon. I know that the iPad doesn’t have specific features required for the iPad but there should be a way to have WhatsApp on iPad. I have tried to email the support team about this issue but I got no response! If a WhatsApp iPad app is out of the question, at least optimize WhatsApp for iPad! If there is no WhatsApp iPad app, I may have to delete my account. I would have given it five stars but insisted I have the app a four star rating because of a lack of an iPad app for WhatsApp.

Great BUT…. This app is amazing and always has been BUT I recently saw the ability to “follow” celebs or whatever and this is NOT what is app is about. We are so inundated with social media already, I don’t come to WhatsApp to follow celebs or get updates! I don’t think I’m alone in feeling this but NO ONE WANTS THIS APP TO TURN INTO FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM, TWITTER, TIKTOK, SNAPCHAT or anything similar! The very least you can do is give us the option to hide all the stupid new updates and keep WhatsApp as it was intended! Nothing is wrong with the app so stop trying to “fix/improve” what doesn’t need it. This is like the last safe place from all the stupid social media platforms at this point. They all have a time and place and WhatsApp should not be it! Thanks if anything if Facebookland is actually reading this.

Status features up dates. I would love to see WhatsApp up status features options , Now once you and another person have each other number saved we can view each other status which is nice but I think it would be a good idea to have a open status where people can view your updates without having your phone number . Keep the old status option but also add a new option where people can follow you like instagram . ( Overall WhatsApp is great ,it allows billions of people to communicate with their family far in different countries by video or voice without paying for unnecessary long distance phone plan and phone card ) WhatsApp is the best but there’s room to improve

Why we can't actually mute a contact?. The only way to silent a contact video call is put the phone into silent mode!!! Why we must silent the phone for just one app? It rings even when we turn on do not disturb!!! Apple says this is a third party app problem and they can't do anything, so I'm asking you! Please fix it! My phone keeps ringing and the problem is WhatsApp. I can't silent this app calls and the only solution is put the phone in silent mode!!! I don't want to miss calls that are made out of WhatsApp, on the other hand, this app won't be silented in any other circumstances. Even after I mute a contact, there is still ringtone when that contact calls and my phone is not in silent mode !!!!

Bad chat backup system. I’ve been using WhatsApp for a number of years now, lately I’ve been having a lot of issues with chat backups, I have them set to backup weekly, but I find myself having to go back in and press the backup now button because it tells me that a connection error occurred and it couldn’t do the backup, now I’ve lost everything, all my chats, pictures, everything all because the stupid backup wouldn’t load fully, it got stuck at around 36mb out of 900, now I know it’s a lot of data but I haven’t had a problem before with large amounts of data backups, I gave it about two or three days to sort itself out, well it didn’t, I had to erase and redownload the app and when I signed back it, it said that I didn’t have any backups, and now I’ve lost everything I had, I am very upset and will consider a different app if this isn’t fixed

Very very good. I never ever write reviews because who has time for them. But I've started to use WhatsApp a few months ago to talk to family and friends in a different country and it's amazing. In fact almost all of my friends (high school) and cousins and older family members use WhatsApp to talk to one another. It's free and there is no dumb "well the app is free but you have to pay for extra stuff" it's COMPLETELY FREE. I'm able to see when the text delivered, when the other person saw it and if it's a voice message then when they listened to it. You can also replay voice messages. You can also do stories on it like snapchat which is kinda cool. Over all it's really great, it doesn't have glitches and it isn't slow. I 100% would recommend

Stickers, media, links, doc & roll adjustments. I’ve been using the WhatsApp since a long time ago, I still believe that the are a lots of things need more improvements, when you chat you can’t go back to the point you need, you should scroll and sometimes it crash & all your efforts will fade away, this should have an option that makes go back to the event you want or by choosing a photo from your media or a scroll option on your chat page. After saving you personal stickers from other apps on you favorites you cannot save them in categories that you want or create, this also needs some modifications so you can save them in your own categories that make you act faster & easier. Hope we can see these options when the updates come Regards to the team & their efforts.

iPhone X individual wallpaper still doesn’t work. I have the latest version of WhatsApp on my iPhone X with the latest iOS 15 as of writing this review. Since the individual chat wallpaper feature was introduced back around December 2020, it has yet to be available on my iPhone X, despite it working properly on my old iPhone 6. I contacted customer support regarding the issue multiple times but they send me unrelated emails referring to internet connection issues and other random stuff before finally replying many emails later, that this will be fixed in a future update; a few months later, the feature is still missing. Very disappointed. Other than this issue, the sticker packs are nice when texting and the app overall is quick and responsive. 3/5

Add dark mode in app. Everything is cool, however it would be lovely if WhatsApp had a setting within the app where you have the option to have everything in dark mode. I have an iPhone and in order to have the dark theme on WhatsApp you have to change your overall, general settings for the entire phone meaning every application would then have a dark theme. I don’t necessarily want my entire phone to be on a dark mode; I only want certain apps to have a dark theme (WhatsApp is one of those apps that I want to be in dark mode). So again, WhatsApp should have a setting that makes it possible to switch between light and dark mode, exclusively within the app so users have the choice of having WhatsApp in dark mode without having to have other apps or their entire phone in dark mode.. Thank you!

Status Quality. The status feature of WhatsApp is a nightmare - from ruining the quality of pictures to messing up the audio of videos regardless of how long the clip is (30 seconds or less) it is just terrible. It would be great if you could add an audio to your status update - I have and seen other people too create an Instagram story to screen record then upload on WhatsApp. Everything else about the app is fine but this feature is what sets WhatsApp apart from other platforms. I can text, FaceTime or actually call my friends and family on any other app but since I travel a lot, a majority use WhatsApp more than Instagram and Facebook so I can keep them updated and entertained on my status. Since I can share my Instagram stories on Facebook, and so on, it would be nice if I could share it directly to my WhatsApp or create it on my WhatsApp entirely.

No IPad Version Forcing Me Out. I love whatsapp, I use it to connect with all my friends and family around the world. But, as the owner of a design company, the app has hit a brick wall on what I thought was our forever stroll into the sunset. Im currently digging around to figure out which app to switch to because whatsapp is not at all compatible with my iPad. As a design company, the iPad is the ultimate tool for design communication. For my international team we use WhatsApp to communicate, but it doesn’t work for iPad. I know there’s a clunky third party web version, but Im looking for something smooth and easy. I know these reviews fall on deaf ears, but in general it seems a little absurd for the biggest messaging app in the world to not have an iPad version. This affects me daily and it’s pushing me away from this app. Looks like it’s gonna be slack or signal for us moving forward…

One start so it can be read. Not sure if this is a problem of iPhone or WhatsApp but there’s an issue that is so annoying. When reading iPhone notifications if you found a WhatsApp notification it doesn’t show if it was a call or a message (if you have show preview disabled). If you click the notification and it was call, then a callback is immediately placed and you don’t want to do that. There should be a way to show you on the iPhone notification if that WhatsApp notification was a call or a message. Hope somebody can pay attention to this. Thanks Update. Apparently after the latest update the problem is not present.

Ripped Off Again On This App. This is the second time being ripped off from this app. And nobody does anything about it. The last one just happened 45 minutes ago when I sent the person $45 that I had in that account. The person lied and gave me the wrong address to pick the product up and so I got scammed out of $45 from this person . I have all her messages and it will show what I’m talking about. The person uses one name on your site in another name on a different site and two different phone numbers. I will include a picture of her phone number and her name. But if you look into this and see in my account and the money I sent her it’s a totally different name . Unfortunately on this review it will not let me post a photo or screenshot.

I wish it had more personalization... WhatsApp has everything from funny stickers, to keeping updated with status, and been able to chat with your friends, and family. The only thing that it’s missing is more personalization, and better video and photo quality. The only reason why I started using telegram was because of this 2 things, and let me tell you how amazing it was when I got there and my videos and pictures looked amazing when somebody sended them to me. The other thing is the personalization telegram has so many personalization features starting with been able to change chat color, and Ui color, and changing the app icon, and chat background. So please WhatsApp add personalization, and better quality for both photos and videos. We all would be very happy!!

Watsapp incoming voice calls/ video calls not ringing. To be more specific. Currently using iPhone XS (iOS 16.5.1) latest. WhatsApp also the latest version. From past 3 weeks having i am experiencing this: Outgoing calls a working fine and able to send/receive text but If someone call me on watsapp, it won’t notify/ ring. And when the person who is calling hangs up it goes straight to missed call. Watsapp incoming call only ring when either its minimize or open. And yes. I’ve tried everything such as: Reinstall the watsapp Reset the network settings on iPhone Background refresh is ON iPhone is not on DND and not on silent. Notifications are ON Reset Notifications settings on Watsapp Did try watsapp support. Nothing new that i didn’t know abt. Hopefully it gets fixed.

Complaining. PLEASE READ I NEED TO KNOW IF THOS IS JUST ON MY PHONE..... So I really love the app, there’s nothing really wrong with it except that, well, idk if it’s just a bug in my phone or if it was the recent update... but when I enter the app it takes a looong time to actually be able to enter the app. Let me explain... when I enter the it’s just few miliseconds till the app randomly kicks me out, and the worst part is that it’s not only once, at least TEN TIMES till I can actually use this app. Sometimes I even have to turn off my phone just to send a message. Since I’m from another country I don’t use the message app, so WhatsApp is the only way to fast communicate with someone. Some people I know also have the same problem so I don’t think it’s just my phone. Please let me know if this is a bug on my phone or it was a problem with the update.

I keep getting kicked out.. I didn’t doTouch the stars above so if says if it says five that was already there.I love the service up until now I’m not sure what’s going on. What time I click on WhatsApp it just disappears. I came to the App Store to see if I need an update but it just says open and when I click on it is gone!Poof!. I wonder if I was being canceled like Facebook,Twitter and other social media companies cancel people who disagree with. Their view point. It happened for a while until one time I was able to get on there and write a message to let a family know what was going on and then it happened again.I surely hope that what’s up I have not joined the other social media companies who are the side to control free speech.

Massive improvements, faster development to WhatsApp!. WhatsApp is on a roll! After years of slow development and lack of features, it has improved considerably the last year: Disappearing Messages (7 Days) View Once (disappearing) Archive (to mute groups from disturbing you) Media Upload Quality (option for HD) And more features are incoming: Link Devices, Voice Message improvements and so forth. However, a few more features could improve the app considerably: a /Poll feature for groups so members or work groups can vote. Folders on top of the screen (to differentiate groups or classify them). /Pin more than 3 chats. A new UI to freshen up the app. Otherwise, WhatsApp seems to be on the right track!

Traveling Abroad. Our 17 yr old daughter is in Costa Rica right now, traveling w/a group of other high schoolers for a 10 day trip & ‘Whats App’ has kept us in contact(w/Wi Fi of course)so we don’t have to pay outrageous phone fees. The first night we had a little problem trying to talk on a call; kept cutting us off + there was a delay. So then we tried a video call but we only got to ‘see’ her for a few min before the video went black(we could still talk, but apparently the Wi Fi was weak). •WE JUST got off of a phone call w/her and for the most part there was no problems, but towards the end our call(about 12min), it was breaking up. I would refer the APP to anyone who’s planning on traveling(especially w/kids or teens) so your phone bill doesn’t get jacked up!

Common sense?. So I recently received a phone from a friend of mine and bought a SIM card from Walmart on prepaid to activate it on AT&T network. When I did I began receiving text messages about the previous number owner so I called and changed my number. Afterwards I had two asian customer service representatives call me, and when I explained the circumstances of what happened in my life over the last year, they hung up on me. Today I went to create a Facebook account with my new number and it is linked to my new number but wouldn’t you thinkAn app that’s based for secure communications, would also be kind of working with a cell phone company to be notified when a number of changes from one person to another to help Prevent identity theft?!? I’ve had nothing but problems with Meta and also Facebook for years misusing my personal information… Literally it helped people like Bryan Kohberger stalk me… where is your sense of accountability?

Unexpectedly Easy, Love the Encrytion. My title pretty much says it all. I hold out on downloading this for a long time because I had for some reason imagined it would be really complicated. It simply could not have been easier to figure out. There is nothing to figure out. It is simple and intuitive. And I am thrilled with the announcement that all messages are now encrypted. And free international calling? I had no idea that was a feature. I wish I had known this when I travel to Europe it would have a lemonade it the whole saga of getting international Sim card and figuring out how to connect etcetera. Also, now I will never again have to glitchy Skype with my cousins in Colombia! Highly recommend this app. I guess I did have more to say than the title.

Scammers on WhatsApp. Yes it’s a good app I like the app very easy to use the only bad part for blind people it is hard to navigate voiceover on iPhones yes but it’s a good app very fun to use and everything like that but the only problem is you have to slide through all the apps or messages that you have the chats but basically once you get through that and you find the chat you want or you swipe down to the notification and you were see the notification from the person you want physically have them send you the message first then you go to the notification and you by law you have it from there and then you can get it fixed and going from there it’s a good app I’ll give it five stars actually give a nine stars or 12 stars or 15 it’s just a good app and you know it’s seen every day

Great, but missing one key component. I have been using WhatsApp for years and have never had any issues with it. I’ve really enjoyed the single chat and group chat options, and I appreciate that you can stop a message midway and start listening again where you left off rather than having to always start from the beginning. HOWEVER, I recently purchased an Apple Watch Series 3, and was highly disappointed when I learned that I cannot receive or reply to my WhatsApp messages through it. I use WhatsApp more than any other messaging service, so the fact that they don’t provide an app for the Apple Watch is highly disappointing. I really hope this is something they will reconsider and make changes to quickly. The world is quickly advancing in technology and will only keep moving forward - WhatsApp needs to keep up!

reaction emotes on notifications. I've been using WhatsApp for a while now and I love the app. However, there's one feature that I think would greatly improve the user experience, and that is the ability to add reaction emotes on notifications. With this feature, users would be able to quickly react to messages without having to open the app, making it easier to manage conversations while driving or in other scenarios where opening the app is not feasible. I believe this would be a valuable addition to the app and would greatly improve the overall user experience. Thank you for considering my feedback. I look forward to seeing this feature added in the future.

Please adjust the chat pattern. In as much as WhatsApp is a great app and I enjoy it please I will that you adjust the chat pattern and I will explain why. Each time I get about 80 messages and I choose to reply in descendant order (from button to the top) I got to realize that after sending a message WhatsApp brings me back to the top which I have to take some time to scroll back down to where I started from instead of just clicking on the next message after the one I replied honestly it’s stressful doing that when you have loads of messages and you want to reply first to the people who sent earlier. Secondly please try as much as possible to include PIN MESSAGES. It helps alot for groups as a good reminder to some relevant Announcement. Also the like button or comment button will be highly appreciated for groups. I HOPE YOU GET TO READ MY MESSAGE AND ADD SOME IMPROVEMENTS WITHOUT FINDING MY WORDS OFFENSIVE. Thank you WhatsApp and I appreciate your app.

Love WhatsApp!!!. This is the most user friendly texting App! It is so easy to send messages, videos, phone calls, voice messages, use voice to send texts and stay in touch with other individuals and groups with chats and broadcast lists. It’s SOO versatile. This is the main way of communicating for most countries outside the US. We lived in Ireland and Panamá for the last 13 years and all those people and the surrounding countries use it. It’s so wonderful. We hope the US will catch on soon!! We use it for our families, friends, and prayer support groups. The school use it with official and unofficial class chats, staff chats and important school info, including emergency schools messages are sent there as well, because everyone has it! I love the search features to find important info and the ability to star favorite texts and photos that I don’t want erased. The ability to slide a message or photo over and make a comment on it is brilliant. Copy, pasting and forwarding is so easy too. As I try to communicate on messages and Facebook, I get frustrated with it’s limitations. I so prefer WhatsApp! Thank you, WhatsApp, for doing a great job!

App not allowing chats with new numbers. I have not given Whats App permission to access to my contacts. Thus the process of initiating a new chat involves typing out the telephone number of the messaging partner. However, recently, no new chats can be initiated as What’s App keeps giving an error message, after entering the messaging partners number, “number is not on what’s app”- when it clearly IS registered. Tried this on more than one device where I‘m using what’s app (and no contact access granted). I cannot help wondering if this is some sly manner to force users who haven’t granted the app access to contacts, to force them to do so? As I have no plans to grant the App access, if it’s not resolved I’ll be uninstalling the app. Signal is a superior product I’ve been using (from the days of Text Secure!) in any case, just the user base of WA is larger- for the moment anyway. WA- it would be advisable to address this matter, your privacy issues are hard to bat away but this is a total deal breaker.

Horrible design flaw. WhatsApp has a ridiculous design flaw that needs to be changed immediately. The "Autodownload photos/videos" feature on the iPhone has a severely annoying feature in group chats. While I want things downloaded, I DO NOT WANT THEM ADDED TO MY PHOTO LIBRARY. The reason why is that I was in a large public group, and a spammer joined an started posting porn. This was auto-downloaded, added to my photo library, and then auto-transferred to another photo library. As a result, a spammer ended up adding a bunch of porn to my photo library, which was then uploaded to a second backup, and almost ended up with it uploaded to social media. I had to spend hours clearing multiple libraries of this crap, and I still cannot be 100% sure I got everything. To be clear, I want to be able to see images that the group posts, and I want to be able to download and add them AT WILL. But the automatic addition to my photo library is an insanely stupid feature I never would want.

OOPS! Sorry. I was scrolling down the pages in the app and my finger accidentally landed on the stars button for rating What’sApp as I scrolled the page. There’s no way to undo. I rthink I saw one star flash, but it shows three stars, which is at least better, but not enough for What’sApp which does sooo much. Imagine an app that performs so many tasks, avoids so many charges. is not laborious to use, AND is FREE!!! I’ve had other opportunities to rate and have given it 4 stars. That’s the most stars I give unless the app solves an intractable problem, is the only one, or first/best one to do so, and is perfect. Don’t want to dilute the 5 to preserve its value. When I’ve used more of What’sApp I may rate it a 5. It’s close. So if you’re wondering who is the dummy who rated What’sApp an odd 3, it’s me. Sorry.

Notification Preview Update. Hello, I’ve been using WhatsApp for years and it’s great as we all know it, but just today I don’t like the way a message notification appears since I turned off my ‘show preview’. It will usually show the contact name who sent me a message without knowing what he or she sent to me about, but right now I’m having an issue where the notification only shows ‘message’ and it doesn’t tell who sent me a message and of course I don’t know what’s in the message since I turned off the preview from my settings, but I really don’t like what’s going on, if this is an update, please I’m really hoping WhatsApp could do something to make it like what was it before, thank you, I would really appreciate if anything is done.

emanuel. yes, i get to connect with my ex boufridbd who is struggling with alcohol, still. he was in a coma after i had left germany to be back and united with my children here in NY. i thank god that he helped me through my hard times living without my children. i thank god that he gave him a second chance in life.

Latest update of Locked chats. 1. Cannot forward texts from open chats to locked chats. 2. Locked chats are all locked with a single lock and hidden together. Each chat can have individual lock instead of a common one, as all get unlocked in one go. Can still be hidden together at one place, no harm there. When user wants to open a specific chat from locked chats, only for that chat app should present an unlock option and let the user enter the pin/ lscan face ID. 3. The locking chats feature is good, but released prematurely it seems. Please improve this feature. 4. Please remove the channels’ feature from status updates screen, this is a simple chat application. No need to make it a social media application. What’s the point of bringing Instagram-like features in a simple chat application! So pathetic to have this channels’ feature in WhatsApp.

Whatsapp is always improving and getting better. Whatsapp is a great tools for friends, family and businesses. The continuous improvement of the apps is great too as well. So many new features added and so on. Nevertheless there are other great things that are being taken a way from the apps that need to be reconsidered for great and greater experiences. Not sure if it’s a bug that would be fixed or deliberately done. Few things I noticed are; 1) The inability to fast forward or rewind voice messages. This is very handy function as sometimes we just need to quickly get a point from a voice message we have previously listens to and so on. 2) When viewing status that has audio we have the ability to increase the audio by using our phone volume keys and able to set it to the desire volume. But now it’s volume is static once you push the button at the start of the status it added audio that can neither been increased nor decreased. Please try to look into this as it’s embarrassing having your phone on highest volume in public places and be unable to adjust it. Am using an iPhone 8 Plus incase these issues are only on certain devices. Thanks
