Much more secure than other messaging apps such as Messenger or LINE. Also syncs well with your phone's contact list.

WhatsApp is being underrated for now because of the technological age when it arrived. This service is an all-time greatest.

Whatsapp is a site that builds all world together, it also a mature site that you can't chat with me if you don't have my contact.

It is a very good application. The feature I would like to add is schedule whatsapp status and also in whatsapp web view it should notify that someone has already called you by showing missed call alert.

It's really annoying when you keep getting so many fake forwards and messages from random & unknown people who keep forwarding such messages and may get benefits from it.
How whatsapp allow such spam activity to happen and fraudulent people and websites to do such fraud.
And There should be a feature that should only allow an unknown person to send a friend request and not a message directly. And if we know a person, only after adding him or her, he or she should be allowed to send messages.
And also there should be a feature that should allow app user to choose what kind of messages we want to receive and what we don't want to receive.
I felt that people here fool innocent people with some fun and spam activities by misusing the names of Genuine websites and asking them to forward the message to 10 or more people so you would get benefits and miracle happen to the reader. I think such noscense messages should not be allowed on such a social app that has huge usability and following. And also one knows that the app is free of cost and help many people to exchange messages and call each other for free. But It would be helpful if there would be safety and security on whatsapp that would allow people to trust them. I discontinued the services as I was not able to get the solution of so many such bad and negative things happening to me on this app.

As far as I'm concerned this is not the best app for texting. Messages go missing, account gets banned for no reason. Customer Service is absolutely 100% appalling. I mean the worst customer Service I have come across. They are rude, unhelpful and they don't care about customers. They don't care about messages going missing. Find another app for texting

Since last month chat history has been disappearing chronologically. Now trend has changed, every morning I find one or two chat history disappeared. I'm using MOTO G4 Plus mobile and recently got know through google search that there are many people facing the same issue.
Surprisingly whatsapp doesn't revert to this problem as more than 25 mails I have written to their support team. I had tried reinstalling app almost five times and reset my mobile too but nothing changed. I even stopped using antivirus and cleaning app to avoid any confusion.

I use whatsapp to keep in touch with all of my family members who live abroad. Some of them aren't very tech savvy and they still manage to utilize whatsapp to its full potential so that is also a huge plus.

The blog named Novice secrets has discovered a bug that allows to delete groups created on a articular version 2.12 and above. However, the groups can only be deleted. Here's how the hack works, as explained by the blog:

Also Read: WhatsApp delete groups available now: What it gets right, how it works and when it doesn't work

-- Now go to Apps under Settings.

-- Choose WhatsApp and Force Stop.

-- Now go to Date & Time under Settings.

-- Disable Automatic Date & Time.

The feature allows users to recall messages, both in group or individual chat. However, there is a catch. Messages sent. This becomes a problem when you want to delete any message after the the group has been deleted by the bug. WhatsApp has no solution to this problem but a Spanish blog website claims to have.

Ever since importing WhatsApp to my new iPhone, I can't get in touch with any of my contacts. I granted WhatsApp access to my phone's contacts, and I can clearly see my contacts in my phone's contacts database, but WhatsApp doesn't see any of my contacts. I've troubleshooted and troubleshooted this. No go. So if someone asks to be contacted ONLY through WhatsApp, my only recourse is to send them a message via my iPhone that I'm TRYING to connect with them on WA.

An absolute nightmare trying to connect with others. If you have someone's #, why can't you JUST text the person directly through WhatsApp? Why all these hoops that frustrate the experience of... a simple messaging service? Google Voice & WeChat are FAAAAAAAR easier and more direct and more reliable.

I have a problem with using the WhatsApp from my iPhone 7 plus. The voice message can barely be heard! I made many attempts like reset the iPhone and the WhatsApp but the problem still there. I can send voice message via all other apps and iMessage and from the same iPhone and the voice is clear except the WhatsApp. I just tried to use the headphones and it worked. Would you please fix this problem as I heard that many people who have iPhone 7/plus face the same problem. Thanks
