3 Causes of “Waiting for this message. This may take a while” message on WhatsApp

KOMPAS.com – The notification reads “Waiting for this message. This may take a while” or in Indonesian means “Waiting for this message. This may take a while” frequently encountered by WhatsApp (WA) users.

Usually, the notification appears when the received message cannot be displayed or appears, and the user is asked to wait for some time.

As reported KOMPAS.com on Thursday (2/6/2022), here are 3 reasons why the “Waiting for this message. This may take a while” notification appears on WhatsApp:

1. Just reinstall WhatsApp

One of the causes of the notification “Waiting for this message. This may take a while” in WA is that the contact you called has just reinstalled WhatsApp application.

This makes the end-to-end encryption feature of WhatsApp unable to encrypt and send messages to other users, so the recipient will receive the notification.
