Why Can't WA Send A Message: Here Are 7 Solutions

YOGYAKARTA - WhatsApp is an extraordinary platform for sending and receiving messages using your phone's Internet connection. If your contacts are not available for phone calls, they will definitely have a few seconds to read and reply to your WhatsApp messages.

But sometimes, WhatsApp fails to send your messages. Or you may not receive messages that your contacts send you. Either way, that's a very annoying problem, especially if it happens quite often.

Rapid tip: If WhatsApp doesn't work well and you can't send or receive messages, this could be a server problem. Check the service status to see if WhatsApp is down.

If no known problems affect the WhatsApp server, maybe the problem is on your side and you need to take further steps to solve the problem.

Since WhatsApp relies on your mobile data or wireless connection to send and receive messages, the first thing you have to do is make sure your connection is stable. Bad Internet connections can delay your messages.

How to check your network connection:

This is what you can do to solve your phone's Internet connection problems on Android and iOS.
