Watch out for the link shared on WhatsApp! Spoils the app and conversations

Although it is not normal, we are used to seeing something as simple as a link or file causing problems in SMS, WhatsApp or other applications. These abnormal behaviors give users headaches. This behavior hits WhatsApp again, but all at once with a simple link that accesses any conversation.

Another big problem for WhatsApp
This is it Another case It can affect almost any WhatsApp user.  Sending a simple link in a chat means that the recipient is left with the app with unstable behavior and this causes it to close automatically due to internal issues.
The cartoon this time is that it is not a word or a link created in a special way, but something native to WhatsApp itself.  We are talking about the link wa.me/settings, which should open and give access to the settings of this messaging application.  The truth is, it puts the app into a cycle of trouble.

Simple link to give problems in the app
The biggest problem is that after the app behaves strangely and simply closes, the user will try to open the conversation again.  When trying to access to delete the message, the problem returns, entering a loop that the smartphone cannot control.
Thus, even this behavior can be avoided, the user is permanently banned from that conversation and unable to exchange more messages.  All others can be accessed and WhatsApp can be used, as long as the conversation in which the link was shared is not accessed.

Solution to remove the message from the conversation
From what has been tested, this situation affects both WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business.  Moreover, the bug is not limited to the latest version, it is also present in older versions of the app that are still used by many users.
The only solution found so far to overcome the problem is to access WhatsApp via the web version, which must be registered.  Once in, you can access the affected conversation and delete the message with the link that was sent.  These web and desktop versions are immune to this link blocking the Meta Messages service.
