  • UKZak Zak Doffman (@UKZak) reported

    @ArtemR @WhatsApp Yep. WhatsApp totally played down this issue when I spoke to them. They said nothing about looking into it or trying to fix it. More important to focus on changing terms of service and rolling out new Facebook monetisation schemes obviously.

  • PyroClaire Dr Claire M Benson 🔥 (@PyroClaire) reported

    @WhatsApp Hi. Am horrified to see, after changing my number, that i've been added to a whole bunch of group chats I never joined (I assume they belong to the former owner of the number). How do we fix this??

    @WhatsApp are u man gonna fix this daily Wi-fi connectivity issue anytime soon ? We been reporting since October 2020 and nada. Ur competition has doubled over the last year and yall just fooling around. Updates and allowing notifications don’t seem to do shyt as suggested.

    Hey @WhatsApp it's 2021, how about a reminder option help with the volume of messages? #idea

  • red_tones れなと (@red_tones) reported

    @AndroidAuth It's such a huge wonder how one needs to stay online on their mobile to stay connected to WhatsApp web when the @WhatsApp service itself is not even secure. Damn, Telegram does a better job.

  • thevicarswife The Vicar's Wife (@thevicarswife) reported

    @incunabula @WhatsApp The problem is that if you like using asterisks to *emphasise* your text, you forget to use two and get bold instead.

  • indialegalmedia India Legal (@indialegalmedia) reported

    The said issue isn't a competitive issue. The CCI has jumped the gun and directed a probe. It's mere amplification: Salve @WhatsApp @CCI_India @apnnewsindia
