For a private messaging app it's getting worse and worse, especially with the sudden appearance of the invasive AI tool overnight, which I am unable to switch off to my greatest disappointment. I don't need it and never will I make use of it, so it would be great to be able to have the option to turn it off. Plus, it doesn't make the layout of the homepage look better :/ Just no

The app is great and it has been super amazing of all times. However, the recent update on key board tabs bar or button is really irritating. It no longer allows you to skip to the next line when typing rather it has become a shortcut button for sending. Sometimes you end up sending the message you didn't intend to when you tap on it accidentally. How I wish you restore our tabs key in the chat box when typing. I will be grateful. š

This is an all round great app. Would be 5 stars but I have a major issue that started a while ago. About 2 days ago, after sending 2 videos successfully, no videos would send anymore. I cleared the cache, I deleted all the media in every "sent" folder in WhatsApp's media folder. And yet still, no videos want to send. it loads and keeps on loading, not even making progress, on my notifications bar it says for example "Sending 3 videos". But they don't. Truly disappointing WhatsApp.
