I recently downloaded WhatsApp on my iPhone 12 and it keeps saying that it’s unofficial and I’m not receiving any confirmation code when I report the matter to WhatsApp they saying to me that I have unofficial application with a link on it and when I use the link to download the official WhatsApp it’s leading me back to the one claiming it’s unofficial, I tried to delete the app and redownload more than 10 times now but still in vain sadly

well mine is now okay , it also used to say it’s unofficial WhatsApp untill i tried to register my WhatsApp with someone elses number then it sent an sms for code then i tried with my number again that was when it sent me the code also . I think my problem was “eSim” maybe my iPhone wasnt recognising that i had a simcard moreover there are some number from my previous network provider that cannot reach to me via calls since i moved from another network provider to a new one .


in all I think the eSim is the problem but not the phone .
