I am extremely disappointed with WhatsApp. My WhatsApp account was suddenly banned on 25 August without any clear explanation. I have been using WhatsApp regularly for many years and have always tried to follow the platform’s policies.What is even more concerning is that after my first number was banned, I purchased a new mobile number, and within just a few days, that second number was also banned. Having two different numbers banned within a period of only four days makes me strongly believe that this may be an automated error or an issue associated with my device/account rather than any intentional violation on my part.I request WhatsApp to please conduct a proper manual review of both accounts and explain the reason for these bans. Losing access to WhatsApp without a clear reason is extremely frustrating, especially when the service is an important part of everyday communication.Please investigate this matter and restore my account if the bans were made in error.

There is a bug in the app which came in the recent update I think. The people whose numbers are already saved and are having a chat history with me are suddenly being shown as either their phone number or the name they have picked. But this is frustrating because these are people who are already saved with specific names in my contacts, now I’m unable to find them and have to remember that now i have to type out their phone number to get into our chat. The problem is that this issue is very random and there is no basis as to which all contacts have been affected.

Overall, my experience with the native Mac app has been completely fine. There are some minor visual bugs here and there, but I don’t mind that—like come on, WhatsApp is free for everyone, so it's alright.However, there is a MAJOR flaw with how this app handles live voice calls. I use a wired headset connected via the 3.5mm combo jack on my MacBook Air M4. Because I have to analyze lossless audio always, my system's hardware clock is set to 96,000 Hz. While WhatsApp voice messages record my mic perfectly, live WhatsApp calls completely choke on the higher sample rate.The app's real-time audio processing seemingly forces aggressive downsampling, which turns my voice into compressed, distorted garbage for the person on the other end. I shouldn't have to manually throttle my Mac's entire master audio clock down to 48kHz (ruining my audio output quality) just to make a basic phone call without sounding like a robot. Please update the audio engine to properly support and handle higher microphone sample rates!

I've been using WhatsApp for Mac for quite some time now, and unfortunately, my experience has been far from smooth. The application seems to be plagued with numerous bugs that significantly hinder its functionality.One of the most infuriating issues is the frequent freezing and getting stuck during usage. It's incredibly disruptive, especially when you're in the middle of an important conversation or trying to quickly send a message. This consistent problem severely impacts the overall user experience.Another major concern is the app's tendency to automatically shut down unexpectedly. This is not only inconvenient but also raises questions about the stability and reliability of the application. Having the application close abruptly can result in lost messages, and it's an unnecessary hassle that users shouldn't have to deal with.The lack of timely updates to address these issues is disappointing. It seems like the developers need to invest more effort in optimizing the application for Mac users. A more stable and reliable version is essential for those who rely on WhatsApp for seamless communication.While WhatsApp's mobile version is widely popular and generally stable, the desktop version for Mac falls short of expectations. Until these bugs are addressed and the application becomes more reliable, users might find themselves frustrated with the overall performance. I hope future updates bring much-needed improvements to make WhatsApp for Mac a more enjoyable and dependable messaging platform.
