I can't send or receive messages My contacts name does not appear Notifications do not appear WhatsApp does not open or close by itself
Raise your hand who has not sent a WhatsApp today. The most used messaging app every day is not without flaws and today we take care of it. We tell you which are the most common WhatsApp problems and their solutions..
I can't send or receive messages
One of the application problems that users encounter the most is not being able to send or receive messages in the application. If this happens to us, we must take into account the following:
- WhatsApp crashed? Visit this page and find out if the WhatsApp service is failing.
- Do you have coverage? Make sure you are in a covered area
- Airplane mode? Look in the notification bar: if we have an icon of an airplane, we have this mode activated and the networks do not work as they should. Turn it off.
- Does our operator offer stable service? See if you can surf the Internet, for example. Your provider may be having problems.
- Failures of your device? Restart the mobile if you cannot send or receive messages. Most errors like this are solved in this simple way.
My contacts name does not appear
Has it ever happened to you that you open WhatsApp and your phone number appears instead of the names of the contacts? To solve this problem we must grant permission to the app to read our contact list. To do this, we must go to the settings menu, look for the application and enter its permissions.
Notifications do not appear
This WhatsApp problem may have its origin in the battery saving mode. There are phones that suspend the background activity of apps to last a little longer. And in order to receive notifications properly we have to make sure that WhatsApp is always working , even in the background..
WhatsApp does not open or close by itself
The best way to solve this problem is to uninstall and install again. If you do not want to go through this, another solution is to clear data and cache of the application . If we opt for the latter, once done we must enter our account again with our telephone number and access codes. We also need to make sure we don't have any pending updates in the app store. In this case, we update and try again.
