    @WhatsApp @WhatsApp what is the use of such a big company if you can't fix a small problem i.e allowing transfer of whatsapp data from Android to IOS. All other apps can be transferred to ios without any problem and for whatsapp we have to use paid softwares. HELP.

    @WhatsApp im not receiving any notification???? Is anyone else having this problem?

  • ekdikeo Eric B (@ekdikeo) reported

    @wcathcart @WhatsApp someone sends me a voice message, and it's going to get ignored forever. It blows my mind that after the issues WA has had in the past, that anyone uses it. I mean, really, a bug that allowed anyone to impersonate anyone on it, that existed for years, is just mindblowing

  • miguelangel2107 Miguel Ángel (@miguelangel2107) reported

    @prezidentyoung @WhatsApp Bahahaha naw bruh lol the cell service is better in other countries when you use WhatsApp

  • meejaysells 👑Mujaheedah👑 (@meejaysells) reported

    How come people still get to see status I already deleted? As if GB Whatsapp ain't enough, even non users now get to see it. It gets deleted and my end but people still get to see it. Why? Pls fix up. @WhatsApp

  • cam88x Cam (@cam88x) reported

    @crgmat @Apple @WhatsApp Hmm. Do you have WhatsApp protected by Face ID? That can prevent share sheet from working. I’d suggest turning that off (Go to Settings > Account > Privacy > Screen lock), and then restarting the phone. If you want Screen Lock on, I think a restart can temporarily fix it anyway

    @WhatsApp I have problems with my whatsapp business catalog but I have a number from Mexico can you help me?
