I've got the same problem...
Notifications appears from the top but application doesn't open.

Anyone can help me please?
 
Where are you guys downloading the latest Whatsapp beta ipa from?

Edit: Also, once installed, is it possible to revert back to the official App Store release version of WhatsApp later on?

Thanks

Got the same issue. Signed using InstaSign with my cert and provisioniong profile. Admittedly, this is the first time I've ever tried this but nevertheless reassuring to know more experienced users are having the same issue. 😀

UPDATE: Guys, I think I've found a solution. Make sure that the downloaded .ipa file is not named "WhatsApp-2" or "3" etc. It should be named just "WhatsApp". Re-sign the .ipa with InstaSign and then load it onto iTunes and re-sync with your device. Not sure why, but it seemed to have worked AND this the first time ever I've downloaded a beta software having just registered my UDID and got my certificate and PP. 😀 😀

And BTW, I'm also getting this 'Please update to the latest WhatsApp beta" message on launching the app.

Hi!

I read this whole thread and didn't find the issue.

I bough a UDID-Registration + Certificates

Then I launched ###ign and resign the Whatsapp Beta.

After that I put the App in iTunes but the installation cancelled always at the iPhone.

Have I forgot something?

PS: sorry for my bad english, I'm not from the UK and also not from the USA 😛

Don't use iTunes. Use iFunbox to install self signed certs.
You can manage it in iTunes after it has been installed on the device.
I'll be honest, it's frustrating having people who have no developer background and are installing certificates and profiles from sources that can seldom be trusted.
Having been a closed tester for 2 years and now public for 1, it smacks in the face a little.
I understand that you want whatsapp beta. I get that. But installing profiles and certificates from unknown sources which could be doing anything (tracking, analytics, etc) for the sake of a few days is absurd.
If you don't actually understand the process then you're leaving yourself wide open to who knows what.
Just be careful what you're doing, you might just have a tracking token in your profile ;-)
There is NO GM. There has only ever been 1 "GM" with WhatsApp and that's the app store version. Look back at my post for the latest version,- no update today yet.
- An actual developer and beta tester.

I also tried iFunbox, but it cancelled at 70% with an error -.-

You shouldnt be doing this if you don't know what you're doing. This is basic installing profiles and IPA'S....

Make sure you signed it right and your certs are correct on both your and your provider end. Either will stop the install.
I've also reported some posts that link or reference these services as not only is it against the rules, it's potentially dangerous.
 
Lol they now got people installing beta versions and compromising their security just because they can’t be bothered to release a optimized version more than a month after the new iPhones were released and about 2 month since the SDK was available.

so true

Edit: I've honestly given up hope of seeing it for the rest of October and possibly November. Maybe we'll get it for Christmas.
 
FWIW I also test Telegram. I'm one of the lucky few who can ask people to swap apps though occasionally have to have use whatsapp. it's very tidy, I like it a lot.

Wish I could ask most of the people I talk to to use Telegram but honestly there's so many people I talk to on whatsapp that it's not worth going back and forth between the two 😡

Edit: Still waiting for one of those mass migrations like what happened with MySpace to Facebook

Thanks for the update but we had that info before, turned out to be wrong.

Also, Apple usually review top apps like whatsapp very quickly, if it doesn’t get updated tomorrow, I highly doubt they have submitted anything.
