Review: While WhatsApp for Android excels in many areas, one aspect that could use improvement is the stability of group calls. I've encountered instances where the call quality deteriorates, leading to dropped calls or poor audio/video performance, especially in larger groups. This can be frustrating, particularly when trying to have important discussions or catch up with friends and family. Although WhatsApp regularly updates its app, address

This new update has connection issues, when i switch from wifi to data the messages don't send and also even if the phone's connected to WiFi and if someone texts me alot of times the notification doesn't show up or shows up later. I have turned off battery optimisation for this app so it can auto launch and keep running in the background but the notifications still don't show up. Hence I've come to the conclusion that it might be a bug.

I've been using this app for quite awhile and the problem is not leaving even after getting an update. When i get a message i can not read as the chat bar of the senders have turned white suddenly one day. Before that the whole chat became white, which made it completely impossible to read or send texts. Please fix this problem and turn the chat bar of the sender to black again. AND the delete option also disappeared along with it. •PLEASE fix this problem as quickly as possible.
