Apple recently released the iOS 12 to all the iPhone and iPads which (according to Apple) made the iPhones almost 30 percent faster than before. This upgraded performance comes with lots of problems too like some apps stopped working because of a compatibility issue or something.
One of the problems which we faced in our iPhone X after upgrading to iOS 12 is that WhatsApp keeps showing blank white screen. The app is not crashing but at the same time not showing any content or the chat list. The messages and notifications keep coming like before but opening the notifications take us to the same blank white page.
