Ratings and reviews

This app has gotten worse and worse with glitches and its driving me insane. Every single time I try to play a voice clip the App just closes and goes dark and then I have to reopen it multiple times and try to play it multiple times before I can finish a voice clip. It's insanely annoying and has been doing this for over a year now ... I'm always updating the app and it never helps the issue

Can't open any chats, it immediately crashes the app. Tried restarting the app, clearing cache, restarting my phone, and reinstalling the app and no matter what I try I can't open any chat with any person without the app crashing. This has been going on for months for me now and to not be able to communicate on a communication app is definitely a severe issue that needs to be addressed.

Over all very good and fun app to text. But with the new update it kinda downgraded. They added an area of suggested channels to follow and it's very annoying that you can't close that section making it "all in your face type thing". Also they got rid of the option to look at all your statuses at the same time and now have to tap one by one to see them.

What's new

• You can now find and follow Channels to receive updates about topics you care about. Tap the ‘Updates’ tab to get started.
• Notifications for groups now indicate if you were replied to or mentioned

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