It is extremely disappointing since Facebook got involved! Please remove all the features and make it back as it was. Nothing works fine when you try to add too much. It is annoying. We do not want to see updates, communities, and other things. All that is needed is a chat, end to end encrypted! Plus that it crashes so many times on calls, and the quality is poor. It became the worst app for chat. People will migrate to other platforms like Signal if you don't have common sense to change it.

Can't get ANY support. When I save an image from a whatsapp chat, the image saves in My Files app, not Gallery app. Tried a number of articles online, Samsung support and reading whatsapp help centre. None were able to support. I submit a support request via website, they tell me to look at the help centre. Great, I've done that, my answer is not there. The automated response email says that responses to their email will not be read. Useful! Same with text. Hope they read this and help.

When the app works it's great, but since the April update it shuts down for 24 hrs every 7-11 days. It will not open at all; I click the app, my screen flashes, then the app closes. When this happens I get a message every 5-10 minutes that reads 'com.whatsapp.AppShell keeps stopping'. This is even with the app fully closed, no open tab on my phone. Because of this, I have to unistall the app every time it happens so I can use my phone without interuption. It's happened 3 times now. It's annoying
