If you are unable to send or receive WhatsApp messages and it’s not due to a widespread outage, there are a few things you can do to troubleshoot the issue on your end.

The first thing to check is your internet connectivity. Poor or unstable internet connection is one of the main reasons for WhatsApp message delivery and reception failures. You can easily check your internet connection by opening a new webpage or doing a Google search. If your internet is working fine, then the problem is not related to your internet connection.

Another possible cause of WhatsApp connectivity issues is weak wireless connection or poor data connectivity. If you suspect this to be the problem, try moving closer to your Wi-Fi router and see if the situation improves. If not, a simple restart of the router might solve the problem. If you are using mobile data, consider going to an area with better mobile network coverage.
