The app works great overall. However, it has some relatively small issues which tend to be very annoying. When listening to a voice note while my ear is on the phone, the screen goes to black immediately as expected. However, it goes back to be active after a bit even when still listening to the note. This causes the audio to stop and the UI to be reactive to the touch of my ear. I've experienced this issue for a while now. Looks like the screen gets back to active after 30 seconds.

I had never had issues with WA but I just tried to restore my backup in a new phone and it didn't work, so I lost years of chats and photos since it logged me out from my other phone. And now, messages are disappearing randomly when I close out of the chat. I can still see the message preview in the chat list, and the receiver is getting the message, but it's not showing up on my end after sending. I have tried to troubleshoot multiple ways but it keeps happening. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

I like everything, EXCEPT! THE fact that you cannot change or customize the bubbles and the entire theme within the app itself. I wish there was a way to have themes created for the app, that could be installed and have custom themes built. Like for example, Samsung phones, have themes that you can download. This allows you to custimze the theme make it more personable, rather than always having the same old green bubble. It just looks sooo outdated
