Latest known WhatsApp problems on Motorola Moto G73

1

No WhatsApp notifications on my Moto G73 lock screen since the Android 14 update — how do I fix it?

First confirm WhatsApp notifications are on under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Notifications. Then go to Settings > Notifications > Notifications on lock screen and set it to Show conversations and content (not None or Hide silent notifications). The Android 14 upgrade often flips lock-screen notifications to hidden or silent, so also make sure WhatsApp's Messages channel under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Notifications has Pop on screen / show on lock screen enabled.

WhatsApp notifications aren't showing up at all on my Moto G73 — what's wrong?

Set WhatsApp to Unrestricted under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Battery so Android stops killing it in the background, then inside WhatsApp tap the three dots > Settings > Notifications and re-enable message notifications. If they still don't appear, open Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Notifications, toggle the Messages category off and back on, then reboot the phone. See how others solved this on Reddit
3

Why are my WhatsApp notifications delayed by minutes on the Moto G73?

Delayed notifications on Motorola devices almost always come from aggressive battery optimization. Set WhatsApp to Unrestricted under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Battery and turn off Adaptive Battery under Settings > Battery. Also disable Moto's Sleeping apps / app pausing feature for WhatsApp if present, since it suspends the background connection and only delivers queued messages once you reopen the app. See how others solved this on Reddit

I'm not receiving incoming WhatsApp calls on my Moto G73 — how do I get them to ring?

Open WhatsApp > three dots > Settings > Notifications and make sure call notifications and the ringtone are enabled, then set WhatsApp to Unrestricted under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Battery so it can run in the background. Critically, go to Settings > Apps > Special app access > Display over other apps and allow WhatsApp — without it the incoming-call screen can't pop up when the phone is locked.

5

My keyboard won't show up or acts buggy when typing on the Moto G73 — how do I fix it?

Clear the keyboard's data via Settings > Apps > Gboard (or your active keyboard) > Storage > Clear storage, then confirm the default input method under Settings > System > Languages & input > On-screen keyboard. If the keyboard only misbehaves in one app like WhatsApp, clear that app's cache under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Storage and reboot, which clears up most input-field glitches after updates.

WhatsApp keeps asking for my password instead of using the fingerprint on my Moto G73 — how do I fix the fingerprint unlock?

Inside WhatsApp go to Settings > Privacy > App lock and toggle Fingerprint lock off, then back on after re-registering a clean fingerprint under Settings > Security > Fingerprint. If it still falls back to the device PIN, set WhatsApp to Unrestricted under Settings > Apps > WhatsApp > Battery, since a battery restriction that fully restarts the app is what triggers the password prompt.

How to install WhatsApp on Motorola Moto G73

1

Choose how to download

On your Motorola Moto G73 you can get the official app two ways: from the Google Play Store — the easiest option, since it keeps WhatsApp updated automatically — or directly from the official website. You can download an APK file, by clicking a link “Download WhatsApp directly”.

2

Open WhatsApp

Launch WhatsApp from your home screen or app drawer and accept the Terms of Service to start setup.

3

Verify your phone number

Enter your phone number. If your Motorola Moto G73 uses dual SIM, pick the line you want WhatsApp tied to, then enter the 6-digit code it sends by SMS — it usually fills in automatically.

4

Restore chats and finish setup

Restore your chat history from Google Drive (use the same Google account), add your name and photo, and tap Allow for notifications so messages and calls arrive reliably.

Stay safe: only ever install WhatsApp from the official Android source. The Download button above already points there — modified copies (GB/Plus/Aero WhatsApp) can get your number banned.

Hi! If the SMS will not arrive, you can choose the call option to hear the code, just make sure your number is entered correctly.
