A recently discovered bug in the beta version of WhatsApp prevents some users from using the app due to an unexpected “green screen glitch” When affected users try to open a conversation, the screen turns bright green and the app freezes to block their messages. The issue, which was mainly reported in beta version 2.24.24.5, has caused frustration among users as WhatsApp, one of India’s favorite messaging apps, faces issues with usage
This green screen glitch is unlike any other display problem: it not only covers the green tint but also fills the entire screen with green, making the app unusable. Recidivism attempts have not shown consistent results, but users report that open conversations continue immediately, making the app work. Some beta users have noticed other issues next to the green bar, such as the app crashing on startup, adding to frustration.
Using a beta version provides early access to features but leaves users prone to bugs as developers recognize and address potential issues before they reach the general public Although with a beta examiners have studied minor errors although they have highlighted the risks associated with emergency systems on this important issue. Android Police discovered the bug in one of its tests, although it wasn’t triggered by any effort, suggesting that the flaw could be related to specific systems or device states.
The good news is that the bug is currently only available in the beta version of WhatsApp, so users of the stable version are unaffected. Those affected have two options: wait for the patch, which may come shortly after seeing a full report, or downgrade to the previous version. However, getting rolling again can be tricky because WhatsApp betas are bundled differently than standard APK files, making downgrades more difficult.
For now, affected users may need to be patient or revert to the old version if possible. Users can expect a fix as soon as the WhatsApp development team can work on the solution, restoring full access to their favorite messaging app.
