Whatsapp keeps crashing after I updated to iOS 17.3.1

Updated to 17.3.1 this morning and whatsapp is now not playing along. Everytime i try to opening it crashes. I deleted whatsapp and reinstalled still does the same thing. Is this a bug from the update?

Man everytime an update comes either IOS or Whatsapp it breaks something.

Team can you please resolve this issue at earliest. I tried everything- restart, reinstalling WhatsApp, TURN off face id , turn of icloud but nothing works. App crashes the moment we try to open it

iOS updates generally aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. WhatsApp issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.


Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors.

First of all, after the last update before this one, everything i had written in Ulysses, was GONE. Writing of two years GONE. No one can seem to tell me where it is and they keep saying check the cloud. IT IS NOWHERE! THEN THIS. Whatsapp literally deleted group chats I had with potential clients and friends and THEY ARE JUST GONE. Apple keeps telling me my storage is low but I'M PAYING FOR ICLOUD. Google is still storing photos and THIS HAS BEEN TURNED OFF FOR A YEAR! FIx this! But removing anything that I purposely save in icloud, never to be found again, is NOT COOL. I'M CONSIDERING JUST GETTING RID OF ALL APPLE PRODUCTS. NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE WITH SAMSUNG WITH MY WHATSAPP OR WRITING TOOLS.

Right? FIrst update a month ago, they lost all my writing. It was just gone. And it was on Ulysses that uses icloud. LIterally i can put key words in the search engine and it's as if I didn't write 5 pages of a book, just gone. Everything else was back to a prior version.

Then whatsapp eliminated my group client chats and nowhere to be found and y'all want me to trust the cloud? FO. Why, it takes things without ever returning them to normal.
