Same thing happens here, when in the app having a live chat the timestamps work fine, but when i exit and go back into the chat all the timestamps reflect the current time. If i look at the list of different chats the time does still show the last time that contact sent a text. My phone time/date is set ok, and i'm not jailbroken.

another user with exactly the same problem. Any more?
Yes, date and time correctly set on iphone

Jan, why can't you understand that we are not asking you to make time stamps optional. What is bugging us is their placement and the fact that they are wrapped in bubbles, which gives the whole interface a very distracting and messy look. I know, I know, you're too concerned about time stamps' visibility on custom backgrounds. Well, there's a solution: default backgrounds + time stamps without freakin' bubbles AND custom backgrounds + time stamps wrapped in bubbles. Voilà! What d'ya think?

will think about it. our UI is evolving:)

The only request I have is that when I enter via viewing a push message, I go straight to the message. Failing that, at the very least, make the keyboard be up on default. There are too many taps to write a reply.

It works flawlessly otherwise.

Oh, I'd like some sort of username for iPod users. My nephew uses the app but doesn't have a phone number to send a text to. I had to use another phone and add that to his contact card to get it to work for him.

heh.. so you don't want picture xfer and message delivery confirmation we been working on for 2.3? :)

we thought about doing that early on, but the problem is that if you have multiple incoming messages, with keyboard up, there will not be enough screen to display them.

however, if you start a new chat and there are no messages, keyboard will come up automatically:)

I'm really digging this app, especially since one of my friends, who doesn't have text messaging, has it. So we've actually been chatting back and forth since we figured out we both had it.

One thing, that's getting to me is that my push notifications don't work. They work fine with other apps, just this one seems buggy. Her notifications work fine on her 3G. I have tried the Airplane mode method, no dice there. Since it's on my 3GS, I didn't bother to try with the calling the ISP method, and unless I really have to, then I'll resort to the 3rd method of doing a backup/full reset of the phone.

But before that, are there any other remedies I can try out?

Sorry for the late reply, but the second reinstallation attempt fixed it for me.

Prior to trying the suggested methods, I thought I'd give reinstalling a try, did it, but nothing. Still no push.

But the second time around, after your mentioning of reinstalling, I did a combination of things and it worked! My push works perfectly. If I remember correctly, I deleted the app, reset my phone via home + sleep buttons, turned off my PUSH, installed WhatsApp again, turned PUSH on, set to airplane mode for 30 seconds, and after that, it worked.

I dunno if all that helped, maybe it was just the reinstallation itself, but I can't count anything out :D Just glad it working! Thanks for the great app!

what's app is still dropping messages. The badge appears but nothing is there when you go into the app.

AGain, this is happening when i receive and happening to the recipients.

I'd say 17 out of every 20 messages get though with this last update. Before that, was about 13 out of 20.

My warning to all is don't send very important messages you guarantee you want the other person to read as it could drop.

Loving the app, use it as much as the built in SMS app! Any news on if 2.3 has been submitted to Apple yet or even developed?

Check out this review of WhatsApp written by a friend if interested.

I have problems with 3G or 2G.

A message pops up on the homescreen but when i go into whatsapp, it's not there and then I can't send messages, once in 100 times it will work.

On Wifi, it's absolutely perfect.

My Data setting work for all my other apps.

I'm using an Italian Factory Unlocked iPhone 3GS activated in iTunes. It doesn't work on my 3G on O2 UK. Both phones are Jailbroken.

Please help me!

My hubby and I eagerly upgraded WhatsApp when we saw the 2.3 update today but unfortunately we're getting the following error when we try to send messages:

Network Problem
Sorry, WhatsApp encountered a network problem. Try restarting the application and make sure you have a working Cellular or Wifi connection.

We both have full Wifi and 3G signal via our microcell. I rebooted my phone but same problem. Anyone else having the same problem?

Has the correct time for timestamps been sorted out?

Hey jkb, I've been using WhatsApp since you released the first version (yes people, even before Ping, some of you have it wrong saying otherwise), I was using Ping! simply because my wife has an Ipod Touch, but once you added Ipod Touch support I immediately removed Ping and left WhatsApp alone, I have also referred your App to more than a dozen of my friends and they have done the same, so far so good, and the latest update is one step closer to all features that we were looking for since day 1.

BUT, what happened in this version, why can't I update my wife's Ipod? If I try to download directly from her Ipod, it doesn't even find WhatsApp in the AppStore, if I do it via iTunes on the PC it immediately tells me that there is an update, but it won't install it saying that it's not compatible with the iPod, I simply don't understand the logic. If it was compatible before, it should be compatible now, I get the point of the MMS features not been available for iPod, but the Confirmation (S, D, U) it's a great addition even for iPod users. Also, for some reason the last Seen... Typing... and Online info seem to work only once the other person opens the app, if I check now, I can't see the last seen or even if they are online anymore, NONE of them appears that way anymore, even with them having the 2.3 version.

Please check this, thanks.
