The popular social media chat app "WhatsApp" that is being used by millions of people worldwide got an awkward twist last week. As per the sources, WhatsApp users are being attacked by using 'text bomb' messages. Because of the issue, WhatsApp clone script need to be careful in terms of the privacy and security of their users. Why Is There a Need for a Radical New Update for WhatsApp? However, the messaging app WhatsApp owned by Facebook has assured its users that vulnerability has been fixed and soon, new WhatsApp updates will be available worldwide for its users. But this matter is not that easy to solve as there are two serious problems with WhatsApp. Due to these both issues, the text bomb attack is more dangerous. These coded messages stretch WhatsApp into an interminable crash cycle that needs a person to delete and re-download the application. The application can't extend the text bomb strings as it smashes every time it tries.so, if you get these messages and open it as well, the game is over. Not only WhatsApp, but all WhatsApp clones are also taking precautions regarding this recent string of dangerous messages. This issue is covered by the media extensively. The solution to this 'text bomb' Issue There is no specific solution or way to escape from this problem. Still, the only way that is provided in the current situation is to use something else rather than your mobile phone to delete that message and block the sender as well. The other issue with WhatsApp is it doesn't have a separate desktop app. Users have snippets of the smartphone app on their desktop. Hence, you are required to keep your mobile phone connected to the desktop, but if you are unable to open your smartphone app, you can't operate the desktop app too. So, there is no way to eliminate this issue, and it shows that you've been targeted, so go to the desktop app to remove it and block the sender. Please don't use your mobile phone until you get it done. It is both impractical and impossible to do for WhatsApp and WhatsApp clone script users, but it is the only solution left for us till we get any other way to get rid of it. Updates that WhatsApp will Provide Now WhatsApp has integrated gadgets in the late-stage development, and this is crucial for this messaging app as it provides catch-up with the offered features by its competitors like iMessage, Signal, and also Facebook Messenger. If it is released, that means you can remove the messages and can block the sender too. After that, reopen the app, and it will be able to synchronize the database without a dangerous message. But these linked devices are not available yet, so if you get this problem now, you have no other option rather than re-downloading it.

But these backups undermine the whole basis for trademark security of WhatsApp. Yes, here we are discussing end-to-end encryption. It provides a key for message decryption that is held between you and another person. Final Verdict To conclude, we have discussed the whole scenario of the recent issue occurring through WhatsApp. Also, we have told you about the possible solutions and future updates as well. As per Facebook, these future updates like encryption will reduce the chance of messages being expropriated in transit along with the compromisation between networking infrastructure and server. The other non-secure option users have to use WhatsApp clones, but it doesn't provide any cloud backup, and data will be out of the user's control. Using these clone apps will be a security risk, so it will be better to wait for the new updates from WhatsApp.
