  • craigcheers123 craig cheers (@craigcheers123) reported

    @WhatsApp why is my WhatsApp not connecting ? 5 times I’ve uninstalled and resinstalled this is the only app with issues.???

  • DilliDurAst Shivam Vij 🇮🇳 (@DilliDurAst) reported

    .@Whatsapp groups should have an option to add moderation. Admins should be able to approve every message. Disapproved messages don’t go through. This will help keep WhatsApp groups on-topic. I’m only asking for this as an option.

  • dsouza_paul Paul (@dsouza_paul) reported from Mumbai Suburban, State of Mahārāshtra

    @ShashiTharoor @WhatsApp Wonderful, but how does it help eliminate international shame and ridicule becos of that vile picture???

  • ng3870698 Naveen Gupta (@ng3870698) reported

    @PraveenPhotog @ShashiTharoor @WhatsApp You realise that this service is not the only way to get the certificate. You can totally choose not to use it & can still get the certificate.

  • anilGFPL anil (@anilGFPL) reported

    @ShashiTharoor @WhatsApp Vaccination & certification is based on mobile no!!! It doesn’t relate Adhaar No. This simply creates total confusion & this is not a well thought method. If I have changed mobile no. Or there is a problem with regd mobile no. Done???
