    @WhatsApp I'd appreciate help with deleting my WhatsApp. Your 'update' means that I can no longer access my account. I cannot delete it myself, as when I try to 'update', my phone gets stuck on 'pending'. I have uninstalled WhatsApp from my phone. Please advise.

  • cooper61944825 Corduroy Hobbs (@cooper61944825) reported

    Why does @WhatsApp not charge a monthly subscription fee? ~2B MAUs not monetized. I’d easily pay $5/month for the service and I’m not the only one… is this short-termism and the zuck vision for WhatsApp is far greater? Explain it to me like I’m a child. $FB $META #zuck

    @Meta @WhatsApp new beta version sucks! Been struggling all day to use Whatsapp web and need to repeatedly login again and again, older conversations + media never loads. Please let users have an opt out option so we can use Whatsapp as we should, some of us rely on it for work.

  • juancpgo Juan (@juancpgo) reported

    @WhatsApp It'd be nice if in WhatsApp Web we could switch between conversations with a simpler (or custom) keyboard shortcut. Cmd+Ctrl+Shift+Tab is way unfriendly. Cmd+Up and Cmd+Down would be my preference.

    @WhatsApp Pls help. My brothers account is hacked.

    @WhatsApp It'd be nice if in WhatsApp Web we could switch between conversations with a simpler (or custom) keyboard shortcut. Cmd+Ctrl+Shift(+Tab) is a finger twister. Cmd+Shift+Up/Down would be much nicer.

  • bearfiesta_ Bear (@bearfiesta_) reported

    @thomasharris @Co_Mill @WhatsApp Meta had a major data breach in September that effected WhatsApp. The iCloud breach happened the same month. They both have that problem, any big platform will. My argument isn’t that iMessage is better it’s that it’s not any different than WhatsApp in the form of data security.
