Ask Siri to send a WhatsApp to a group

Hi ItsThommo,

Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities. We understand Siri won't send a WhatsApp message to a WhatsApp group after the latest iOS update. Since the issue is isolated to WhatsApp, we recommend going through the steps in this article even though the steps are for a slightly different issue: If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open.

"If an app on your iPhone or iPad doesn't work as expected, try this.

1. Close and reopen the app

Force the app to close. Then open the app to see if it works as expected.

2. Restart your device

Restart your iPhone or restart your iPad. Then open the app to see if it works as expected.

3. Check for updates

To see if updates are available for the app, open the App Store, tap your profile icon, then scroll down to see if updates are available. If updates aren't available for the app, update the software on your iPhone or iPad.

4. Delete the app, then redownload it

Delete the app. When you do this, you might lose data that was stored in the app. Then redownload the app. Then check to see if the problem with the app is fixed.

• If you found the app on the App Store, contact the app developer. If the app is made by Apple or came with your iPhone or iPad, contact Apple Support for your iPhone or for your iPad."

Take care.

I have the same problem, and it don't help to delete and reinstall Whatsapp. Also a restart don't help.

Since the last 16.4.1 Update Whatsapp is unusable with messages to groups and generelly answers to someone.

Please fix it quick

Thanks

My family members & myself have the same problem as Thommo & Donald.

Siri is unable to send a message to a WhatsApp group.

is this an apple issue or a WhatsApp issue?

This problem has been around for a while now, is there any more info we are going to get on fixing the problem?
