WhatsApp has released a new stable update for iOS users, version 23.5.78, which fixes a major bug related to restoring chat history from iCloud backup. The bug caused the app to falsely report a lack of internet connection while attempting to restore chat history, preventing users from restoring backups regardless of whether they were end-to-end encrypted or not. This issue affected all WhatsApp users who attempted to restore their chat history from iCloud backups.
While the official changelog does not mention the bug, WhatsApp has confirmed that the latest beta for iOS, version 23.5.78, includes a fix for the problem. For users who have experienced the issue, it is recommended that they update their WhatsApp to the latest version available on the App Store to restore their chat history without any issues.
It is worth noting that the update is a bug-fix release and does not include any new features or changes to the app’s user interface. As always, WhatsApp recommends that users keep their apps updated to ensure the best possible experience.
