[Android Apps and Games] Gambler_3:
Please tell me why does this app continuously makes backup after backup and never over writes old backups? Within a week this app starts taking about 50MB with JUST duplicated backup database files. This is the sort of thing which is a noob nightmare that something they dont understand starts taking lots of space. Is it just me who is experiencing this?

And my second problem is with the latest update.

Why is the smiley window so small now if the message is big? It wasnt like this before the smiley window used to cover up the msg and it was perfectly fine. Now you have to press back and dismiss the keyboard to get a clear view of the smileys. Please dont fix what was never broken. :)

Lastly I really want you guys to implement a feature and that is to be able to select a separate notification tone for different contacts. Facebook messenger recently implemented this and I would really like to have it in whatsapp.

[Android Apps and Games] LeoPosas:
Emoticons don't will show over the keyboard, hide the keyboard.
[Android Apps and Games] Gambler_3:
It doesnt even have to come over the keyboard, it can just occupy the first 3 lines of my msg really it only needs to show the last 2 lines I dont need to see the whole msg while I am putting a smiley.

Hiding the keyboard is not a good solution it wasnt like this 2 versions back I had no problem with a huge smiley window opening over everything else.

And I used it on an SGS3 and there was no issue due to the massive screen and resolution, enough space above the 6 lines of text for smileys. But what about users with 4" screens and 800x480 resolution? It's not good when an app like this tries to favor the higher end phones its not like 4" is small. There needs to be an option for the smiley window to open up like it used to previously to make it easier for smaller screens so everyone would be happy.

Is this an official whatsapp thread or should I send my complain somewhere else to be better heard?

Im sorry, but i'll not stop the updated if we don't have a official changelog for every build from whatsapp team.

If you want to know what's new, see it by yourself, you'll miss anything.

It was a rhetorical question. And the emoticon made it more obvious
[Android Apps and Games] romsfan:
You could learn some manners yourself and go be ungrateful somewhere else...

If there's no changelog probably the update is only for minor issues relevant to specific devices. If you're on wifi just update and move on with your life. If the update had something relevant you would be able to see it by using the app.

Whatsapp is not that complex, just chat with some people and check the settings. If you see anything new, there is the change you've been looking for...

I have, I am positive I followed the correct procideure, as I have been able to recover conversations from a third phone, but with a November file.

I think Whatsapp has changed the way it saves files, and it does not recognize the newer ones. That is my feel, but I really do not know.

Anyone has an apk version 2.7 or so? I think it would help me to install that version, recover, update and save.
