Hi, same problem. I run on 16.3.1 on iPhone 13 Pro max. I had this problem since 2 weeks ago. Tried everything as well as to restore iPhone and WhatsApp. And doesn’t work. I tried hard 3 times to get help both from Apple and WhatsApp but didn’t get any help. Is a huge problem for who uses WhatsApp WA as a business tool. I’m spending a lot of time to copy and paste the same messages. But what is still make me angry is WhatsApp team completely ignore me. Until I found this forum, I thought I was the only person on planet having this problem. I searched on spanish browsers and it seems nobody except me does have the same issue .

hi all. yesterday I spoke with Apple for 2nd time, and that refused the problem as the 3rd party’s issue. I wrote again to WhatsApp team, copied and pasted what I wrote here end this is their answer( I share with you) Hi,  Thanks for your message.  We are sorry to hear there is an ongoing issue with WhatsApp. This issue has been escalated to the appropriate parties and we are working to get this fixed.
