WhatsApp stops showing the content of messages after updating the iPhone to iOS 11.4

The launch last Tuesday of iOS 11.4 in its final version, has meant the end of some of the most irritating problems that we encountered almost daily on our iPhone with the previous version, such as the black point, the icons of the applications that are placed at your leisure on the springboard or the general disorder of the conversations in the Messages application.

But, some leave and others come. On this occasion, we are talking about WhatsApp, the queen application of messaging around the world and the fundamental tool for millions of users when it comes to communicating. After the update to iOS 11.4, many are the users who are seeing how WhatsApp notifications appear completely empty, without showing the sender or the content, or sometimes only the sender.

Apparently, this update or the version of the WhatsApp application (it is not yet known who is the culprit) affects push notifications, those that allow us to receive any notification at any time, be it from the messaging application, a mail client, a game, or an application. To solve this problem we must go to the WhatsApp settings.

Within WhatsApp settings, click on Notifications. Next we must activate the Preview switch. This option allows us to see the text included in the notifications. If this option was already activated, we must go to the iOS settings.

Within iOS settings, click on Notifications, located in the second block of options. Next, we look for the WhatsApp application and click. Next we go to the last available option called Show previews and select Always.

Either one way or another, through WhatsApp or through the iOS settings, we are going to be able to solve this problem that coincidentally has come from the hand of the latest iOS update, but it does not mean that the problem is there, it can also be WhatsApp, an application whose operation sometimes leaves much to be desired.
