If on the stable channel the news for WhatsApp arrive at a relaxed pace, on the beta one the situation is decidedly more eventful. Yesterday we told you about how version 2.22.8.3 of the beta for Android has begun to introduce reactions to messages, and today it is already time for another update with version 2.22.8.4. Which, however, is not convenient to download: but let’s proceed in order.
First of all, it must be said that the latest update is unique since it reintroduces a function that disappeared with the previous one, but at the same time removes another one among those recently implemented. Specifically, the possibility of pausing the vowels also landed on the green robot at the beginning of March after having mysteriously disappeared with the beta 2.22.8.3 is reintroduced here.
What disappears, however, is the preview of images and videos when they are sent as documents, an adjustment to the interface implemented in February that made the procedure more organic, and that at the moment has been removed for obscure reasons. The fact that the possibility of pausing the vowels during the recording underwent the same treatment but was then restored makes us think that the same could also happen for this other function, even if it is only a hypothesis.
I confirm that some users are experiencing random crashes after installing the new WhatsApp beta for Android 2.22.8.4 update.
If you have updated, please wait for the next update as usual. If you are on 2.22.8.3, don’t update. https://t.co/XancpXezrY

BETTER NOT UPDATE
The problem, however, is that version 2.22.8.4 of the beta for Android is better not to download it at all , as we told you at the beginning. In fact, WABetaInfo has confirmed that some users have experienced random crashes while using WhatsApp following the update: which is why, if you want to continue using the messaging app without problems, you should wait for the next update round. and pass this hand.
