Ratings and reviews

I like the app, but something about searching for music when adding to my status is kind of bothering me. I was wondering if you can make it able for us to search for music with the artist and song name at the same time because when I search for a song it's hard to find it because a lot of songs have a similar name or when I'm searching for an artist but can't find the song because they have too many songs. please improve it.

the sound of clicking and sending voice notes got activated automatically after an update and there is no way to turn it down. Me and thousands more are getting crazy on the Internet, there is no way to solve it!!!! I have had my phone on vibrate for many years, no joke, I haven't had the sound activated in years, and it still makes sounds. even if I put it in silence mode where everything is muted, it still makes these sounds!! conversation tones are off and the app still makes the sounds!!

WhatsApp is by far the best messaging app. The only issues are: 1) we can no longer tell when audios are heard by receiver (not sure if theme color affects, but this is a big deal) 2) Info and copy options r in a menu instead of shortcut button at top (along w/reply etc), even though there's still space for it. Makes it inconvenient considering how often those features r used. 3) It would b MUCH better if the read/played time was a timestamp, instead of how long ago, so we don't have to the math

What’s new

• You can now add a custom Member Tag to let everyone know your role in the group chat. Open the group chat, tap the group name and scroll to the members list. Tap Add member tag and type in your role to show people who you are or how you’re known in this group.


These features will roll out over the coming weeks. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
