Welcome back to Tenorshare everyone.
I just update my iPhone to iOS 16.4, and then try to share the new feature with my friend
on WhatsApp.
The moment I was typing, it crashed.
Then I open it again and again, and it keep crashing.
And I find out many people were having the same issue like me.
It is the WhatsApp and the Apple problem, it will be fixed when WhatsApp or Apple release
a fixed version.
When will it released?
Nobody know.
