Ratings and reviews

After this update I am unable to scroll through my stickers. The moment I attempt to scroll down, even if I'm scrolling as slow as possible, the screen jumps back up to the top of my saved stickers. It's as if there's a glitch preventing me from scrolling any further. Also, the app is constantly crashing. I'd be typing, and mid texting, my screen would freeze, and the app would have to be closed and reopened in order to work again but it doesn't even work for long before it crashes again.

The app in itself is very good. But one thing is missing from the ios version. If i want to share multiple photos at the same time, say i want to mail them. It is not very convenient. In the iphone, you just select all and then press share. But as soon as you selsect more than one, the option of share dissappears. If whatsapp can add this feature in the next update, it would be so convenient. Other than that the app is just very good. Would have got a five if it

UI/UX The app has a non-intuitive and old interface. The Community tab in the top-left part of the UI is small and hard to reach. Finally, viewing who viewed a message is also non-intuitive (swiping from the right of the message would be better). FEATURES Inability to share large files of any kind (mp4 , pdf...). Inability to clear individual private and group chats. Media quality. BUGS The profile picture failed to load; Default message timer had to be set manually for all contacts;

What's new

• “Search by date” is now supported from within chat search. Tap ‘Search’ from contact or group info and select the ‘calendar’ icon to toggle to date picker.


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