Recently formatted my phone. Reinstalled whatsapp n the imported the backup.
It seems very slow and buggy. After 1-3 mins of usage, the app starts acting up and after a minute or so autocloses.

Has anyone experienced the same?

I’m planning on reinstalling to check whether that fixes the issue. Asking here to see if anyone has experienced something similar and/or has resolved it.

    Maybe that’s it. My dad’s current phone does run an old Android version, so that might be why local backup restore worked. The WhatsApp version was up to date though. I can confirm local backups work on Android 8 and Android 11.
