WhatsApp for Infinix Hot 50

WhatsApp has no built-in call recording, and Android blocks third-party apps from capturing the call audio stream for privacy reasons, so even XOS's screen/call recorder usually grabs only your own mic or nothing on WhatsApp voice and video calls. There's no reliable on-device fix on the Hot 50; the only dependable workaround is putting the call on speakerphone and recording it with a second device. See how others solved this on Reddit

XOS's aggressive battery management is freezing WhatsApp in the background. Go to Settings > Apps > App management > WhatsApp > Battery usage (or Power consumption) and set it to Unrestricted/No restrictions, then in Settings > Battery turn off any power-saving mode, and in the recent-apps view tap the lock icon on WhatsApp so it isn't auto-killed. Also confirm notifications are enabled under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Notifications and that Do Not Disturb is off. See how others solved this on Reddit

Infinix ships XOS with preloaded apps (Palm Store, Phoenix Browser and others) that take up RAM and storage, which can leave less headroom for apps like WhatsApp. Disable or uninstall what you don't use via Settings > Apps > App management, clear WhatsApp's cache under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Storage > Clear cache, keep a few GB of storage free, and make sure WhatsApp is updated from the Play Store. Restarting after updates also helps. See how others solved this on Reddit

Several stock XOS components (Palm Store, Folax, the browser and recommendation widgets) push promotional notifications that clutter your shade. Open Settings > Notifications & status bar > App notifications and toggle off each offending system app, and disable any 'Receive recommendations' or 'Get hot apps/content' option inside Settings > Additional settings as well as within each Infinix app's own settings. This stops the ad noise without affecting genuine WhatsApp or other message alerts. See how others solved this on Reddit

Yes. On your old phone open WhatsApp > Settings > Chats > Chat backup and back up to Google Drive using the same Google account you'll sign into on the Hot 50. After installing WhatsApp from the Play Store on the Infinix and verifying your number, choose Restore so your messages and media come back. For an Android-to-Android local transfer you can also use WhatsApp's built-in 'Transfer chats to Android' (Move to new phone) tool. See how others solved this on Reddit

The Hot 50 has a bright display and big battery, but XOS adds bloatware and ad notifications and its software updates are slower, whereas the Moto G45 runs near-stock Android that keeps WhatsApp notifications and background sync dependable out of the box. If you stay on the Hot 50, set WhatsApp's battery usage to Unrestricted and turn off Infinix ad notifications to get closer to that cleaner experience. See how others solved this on Reddit
