    Hello...

    Sorry if this is common knowledge. I did a quick search, but a quick answer wasn't forthcoming.

    Is there a quick and easy way for Whatsapp to work on BB10. I used the Passport until Whatsapp stopped support, and I was forced to move to an Android device.

    Android device stopped working, and I've got to pick a new phone quickly....Can't wait for the Key2....Would love to go back to Passport....but Whatsapp constitutes 50% of my usage.

    My wife and I would get stressed by the continual messages/threats from Whatsapp stating the App would no longer work on device......Would only go back if there's a permanent solution.

    Thanks in Advance...

    You can download WhatsApp directly from WhatsApp's website. The android version works on the Passport. In order to send or receive pictures or videos, you will need to insert an SD card into your device and download WhatsFixer from BlackBerry World. Just follow the steps. I'm using the actual, full version on my Passport right now. No worries.

    Yes, I've had the issues mentioned in the link. I've deleted the message thread and started a new one and it worked but it's popping up with other contacts now.

    Not sure if I'll do anymore whatsapp updates.

    I had only once this problem in my Classic. I restarted the phone and the problem disappeared.

    Also what I found out is whenever you want to update whatapps (andriod version) you should stop the program in device monitor before updating...since I'm doing this everytime there is an update it works fine
