Ratings and Reviews
More privacy and control over messages is needed
If the sender had an option to lock the forwarding of the voice or messages we send on WhatsApp, many problems would have been avoided.
Currently the only option is to limit a message to a single view . The ability to lock the forwarding of messages or voice notes on WhatsApp could indeed help prevent various issues related to privacy and misinformation. It would provide users with more control over their shared content and potentially reduce the spread of false information. This feature could also enhance the security and privacy of conversations, ultimately leading to a more secure and trustworthy messaging experience.
Dear developers
This is a great app however there has been a hack/virus on the platform where just from responding to the sender they get full access to your account. This happened to my mother yesterday, one of her friends had their account stolen and the hacker messaged my mom through her friends account, after a bit of talking the hacker asked my mom about what type of credit card she has. My mom instantly knew something was wrong. The hacker stopped responding and started doing the same thing but using my mother’s account and started spreading the hack/virus to her other contacts, I did 2fa and told all my friends, and my parents reported the issue to the police and the account was locked. She got access back to her account today and did 2fa, I’m not sure how many people got hacked, but plea fix this issue because my mother shared absolutely zero information which means theres a massive flaw with the app’s security. Please fix this asap.
Thank you.
“Channel updates” complain
This app is amazing but i have a complain. This new channel updates haven’t been my favorite at all. If i want to follow celebrities I’d do that in any other platform e.g instagram or facebook or twitter. What’s App should be enclosed to family and friends it’s like sacred space that does not include celebrities or channels. At least put a block on it i don’t want to keep seeing those channels any time I view status. Thank you.
