Really tired of the way video circles work. When someone sends you like 10 in a row, the chat scrolls automatically and closes the circle you've been watching. And you gotta start watching from the beginning, because there is no functionality to fast forward it. That's getting more and more annoying. Also since channels were introduced a lot of spam came with it, casinos, dating, commercials.

Worser and worser. Beside the very bad security, now cannot open the app. It requires to login to google if not it does not continue. Very bad ergonomy: Cannot find a way to always answer calls in audio only even when receiving video calls. I don't want the speaker to start when I receive a call which happens when answering a video call. And not easy to see if that's a video call as there is a very small notification area with some small text to answer or deny.

I've been using WhatsApp for years now, and it's definitely been a game-changer for keeping in touch with friends and family abroad. The ease of sending messages, making voice calls and sharing media is undeniable. However, I've experienced some frustrating glitches lately – messages delaying or not delivering, occasional freezes and drops during calls. The constant updates can be annoying too. In terms of security and privacy, WhatsApp has made significant strides.
