Issues
WhatsApp update fixes locked chats and filters issue
WhatsApp has released an essential update for its beta users, which fixes an issue with locked chats and filters. The new update is available through version 2.24.19.35 on the Google Play Beta Program.
The fresh beta update addresses an issue found in the previous beta version, 2.24.19.16. This beta version brought the Meta AI Assistant feature to help businesses by providing personalized insights and creating content for their catalogs, including images and ads.
However, users of this update encountered a major issue as the locked chats and chat filters stopped working properly. Mainly, users found that locked chats were missing from their interface, and they could not use filters to manage their conversations.
Several WhatsApp beta testers tried to fix the problem by restarting their devices or force-stopping the app, but these actions did not resolve the issue. This bug makes it difficult to access important conversations and navigate through messages.
Fortunately, WhatsApp has now fixed the issue with locked chats and filters through its latest beta update. After installing this update, users can once again access their locked chats and use chat filters.
If you are also testing the WhatsApp beta version on your Android devices, install the latest update to enjoy a smoother and error-free experience.

Conversations with Gemini Live can also be downloaded as transcripts. It’s great to witness Google opening up its latest AI advancements for the entire Android ecosystem. It’s another reason why Apple should have opted for Gemini, rather than ChatGPT.
We expect the Galaxy S24, S23, and S22 series will start getting the update soon. The rollout has begun but availability will expand gradually. We assume a broader availability in the next couple of weeks, including iOS devices too.
