The most popular messaging app is banning the use of 3rd party apps today. WhatsApp already has an official app that most people use, but there are some notable 3rd party apps such as WhatsApp+. Users of these apps are finding a message that states they are temporarily banned from using the service because they might have violated the terms of service. This temporary ban is exactly 24 hours and there is no way around it.
WhatsApp is recommending that if you’re a user of any of these 3rd party apps, you should install the official app instead. That is okay for those that haven’t been banned yet, but if you have been banned, you will have to wait the 24 hours regardless.
The developer of the most popular 3rd party app, WhatsApp+, is urging users to use the official app until they are able to rectify the situation. More importantly if you are a user of WhatsApp+ or any other 3rd party app and you haven’t been banned yet, you should still install the official app so that you don’t get thrown out for a full 24 hours.
It’s unclear whether these 3rd party apps will be able to fix this issue. I am leaning on the side of probably not, but we will keep you updated.
