WhatsApp accounts put under review, blocking users for 24 hours

Multiple WhatsApp users, including many in India, were locked out of the app on Monday evening after their accounts were placed 'under review' for 24 hours without any warning, blocking all features. The outage surfaced around 8 p.m. IST, and affected users saw a message saying their activity and device info were being checked. WhatsApp acknowledged the disruption, saying it sometimes gets account enforcement wrong and works to fix it quickly, though it did not explain what triggered the reviews.
