I am refraining from giving a 5-star rating as I believe the application requires several improvements. One of the most significant areas for enhancement is the speed of transmitting images and videos. While I can download a 1 GB movie in under a minute, I find that sending a 50 MB video takes considerably longer. Addressing this issue would greatly enhance the overall user experience.

WhatsApp has suddenly stopped working on my Nothing Phone 1. The app won't open at all, and I have a huge amount of important data in it. Reinstalling is not an option as I risk losing all my chats, media, and documents. I’ve tried clearing cache and restarting, but nothing works. This is extremely frustrating, especially from such a widely used app. Please fix this issue or provide a solution that allows me to recover and back up my data without reinstalling.

It was.. nice Now, it has become.. amazing. If I want to video Call my Family, then I would have to Message them first, Attempt to Audio Call once, Message again, Attempt to Video Call once again, Message again, Attempt to Audio Call once again & repeat many more times. After this, the Message is delivered & THEN I can video call my Family. Yeah.. Surprisingly, this Offer applies only when I want to call my Family. Restarting Phone doesn't help. Sometimes, I have to Normal Call. Thanks, Whatsapp
