The Instant messaging app WhatsApp Monday put multiple accounts, including those being operated in India, “under review” for 24 hours, news agency PTI reported. It also blocked all the features of the app, prompting several users to flag the issue on social media.
The users noticed the disruption around 8 pm IST as they started facing the issue without any prior warning from the messaging app by Meta.
The app displayed a message on screen that read: “Account in review. Date requested: 3 Aug 2026. Your account activity and device info is being checked to make sure it follows our terms of service. We will notify you of the result typically within 24 hours.”
