I’m experiencing a very frustrating issue with the latest version of WhatsApp. My contacts appear correctly in my phone’s regular address book, but when I open WhatsApp, the names are completely mixed up or assigned incorrectly. For example, someone saved as “A****” in my contacts shows up as another unrelated contact in WhatsApp. This is not only confusing but also makes it hard to know who I’m messaging, which is a serious concern for both personal and professional communication.
I’ve confirmed that this isn’t an issue with my device or how I saved the contacts—everything is accurate in the native Contacts app. This looks like a bug introduced in the most recent WhatsApp update, and I’ve seen many others report the exact same issue today, so it’s clearly not an isolated case.
This situation is extremely annoying and is starting to cause real stress. I kindly ask WhatsApp’s technical team to urgently investigate and fix this bug, or at the very least release a statement acknowledging the problem. People rely on WhatsApp for everyday communication, and this kind of error breaks user trust. Please address this issue as soon as possible.

I’ve tried deleting and re-saving their numbers, but nothing ...
I recently changed my phone number but forgot to deactivate my old WhatsApp account. As a result, my name, profile photo, and other personal information are still visible on that account. This is a serious privacy issue, because if that old number is reassigned to someone else—and they install Whats...
Since this morning, I have been unable to make WhatsApp calls with one specific contact. I am using an iPhone 11, and the other person is using an iPhone 16. Both of us have the latest WhatsApp version installed. When we try to call each other, the screen just shows “Connecting” endlessly, and the c...
My new WhatsApp number was suddenly flagged as spam, even though I’ve just started using it and haven’t done anything inappropriate. I was simply using it to share the number with contacts and make video calls, and out of nowhere, access was restricted. This is completely unfair and frustrating. I ...
