WhatsApp is rolling out bug fix updates for desktop users. This is to fix push notification issues between WhatsApp desktop clients. They have been complaining about the issue of push notifications when using the stable version of WhatsApp Desktop. Now the instant messaging app has fixed that bug with an update.

In fact, even rapid research on Twitter confirms that many people could not receive push notifications and were looking for news and solutions,” WABetaInfo noted on its page.
“WhatsApp officially pushed out a fix in WhatsApp Desktop beta 2.2219.2 update some time ago, so beta testers may have already received notifications as this problem is finally fixed. Still, it seems that the same fix is finally coming on the stable update with build number 2.2218.8. If you are also facing similar issue, please open WhatsApp Desktop and update to the latest version available.”

Is. Since the release of the beta program, no one has complained about critical bugs in the beta version, so it’s really safe to install.”
Meanwhile, WhatsApp is also adding detailed response information for automatic albums. It is given to beta testers. Android beta testers are getting it now whereas iOS testers had it before.
“When using the older version, it was not possible to understand which photo or video reacted to without opening the automatic album. Thanks to the new beta version, detailed feedback information is finally available and beta users can already see a media thumbnail within the feedback information screen that indicates which media has a reaction to the album,” WABetaInfo said.
