If you want to continue using WhatsApp or Hangouts, do not install iOS 8

WhatsApp iOS 8

There are many followers of Actualidad iPhone You are asking us about the stability of the first beta of iOS 8 and we are still analyzing all the sudden problems that arise when using it. Meanwhile, we can advance an important fact: if Whatsapp forms an important part of your day to day, so better than do not install the first beta of iOS 8 on your iPhone.

Applications such as Facebook and Twitter will continue to function normally. For its part, version 6.0 of Instagram is not compatible with the beta launched by Apple on Monday. WhatsApp is the application that gives the most errors when using iOS 8 beta 1. You will be able to respond to individual messages, but it is most likely that after a few minutes of using it it will start to close suddenly without you being able to continue interacting normally with your contacts. WhatsApp in the first beta of iOS 8 It will also cause problems when accessing groups: in my case, there is a group that I can access, but when I try to access another, the application does nothing but suddenly close and it is impossible for me to read or reply to the messages.

I have consulted with other people who have installed this beta of iOS 8 and their experience has been exactly the same, therefore, it is not advisable to install the new Apple software if you use WhatsApp constantly. If you finally decide to install it, you can always continue using other alternatives, such as iMessage.

By the way, if you are thinking of using Hangouts as an alternative, forget it, because Google's messaging app doesn't work at all with iOS 8.

    Hello. For those of us who work whatsapp, especially in groups as you say (I mean the author of the post), you can solve it by going to whatsapp settings and then selecting the option to empty chats. It will work for you until the group / conversation is filled with messages again. This is probably due to a memory leak. Greetings!

    In my case, iPhone 4 I can forget about IOS 8, so this year it's time to renew the iPhone 6! yeah!

    Indeed that was exactly what happened to me. Some groups and conversations let in (always the same ones) and others not. So go down to 7.1.1 again.

    Line does work although it closes sometimes and the stickers do not work and Telegram works perfectly! It looses the bars and the keyboard but operating it did not give me any problem.

    regards

    For those with the whatsapp problem, it is solved by emptying the chat and problem solved

    It's true!!! With iOS 8 the App Store does not work… You cannot download anything, not even the updates… Does it happen to someone else?

    It is a shame about whatsapp, emptying the chats I do not see a solution, it is to delete stories that if you have them it is because you want to save them

    Everything is solved by turning off the iPhone by keeping the on / off button pressed and the home button pressed until it turns off. Then we turn on again and everything works correctly !!!!

    There has been a tweetbot update and it now works perfectly on iOS 8.
    On WhatsApp. Yes we go to configuration and delete all conversations, we continue to have groups and conversations working, although we lose the history

    Luis nothing happens to your iPhone, if you cannot edit the photo is in icloud and not on the phone, try choosing a photo that you cannot edit, press the share button (square with arrow) and click save in reel after this your photo can be edited in addition to being easily recognizable by a heart next to the edit button that allows you to mark it as a favorite ...
