Can’t link to iPhone 6
Shahadh Mohammed
WhatsApp is the greatest messaging app ever created. I have nothing wrong to say about it. I use an iPhone Xs as my primary device and I use an iPhone 6 as a secondary device which I use for work and stuff but I used same WhatsApp on both the phones (linked by web) and right after the feature was introduced (linking WhatsApp to another phone) I used like that and it’s very easy and efficient. After that they announced that they are gonna drop support for iPhones with older iOS version (iOS 12 or older). I had no issue till yesterday. My younger brother mistakenly deleted WhatsApp on my iPhone 6. So I downloaded it again but can’t link my WhatsApp to this phone. It would be very helpful if you can give that feature back. Because it was already there in it. I hope your team would give that feature backThank you.
Privacy
Honey ros
I would like to give feedback regarding the online status feature on WhatsApp. Whenever I make or receive a voice call or video call, my status automatically shows as “online.” Because of this, people assume that I am actively using the app and expect immediate replies to messages, even when I am only on a call.This creates misunderstandings, as others think I am ignoring messages while being online. It would be very helpful if WhatsApp could provide an option to hide or control the “online” status during calls, or allow users to disable the online indicator completely for better privacy.Please consider improving this feature to give users more control over their online visibility and personal privacy.
We update the app regularly to fix bugs, optimize performance and improve the experience. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
