⚠️ Known Issues

Warning

Status Update Feature (POST /api/status/update)

The WhatsApp status/story update feature is currently experiencing known issues and should be avoided in production:

• Text statuses with custom background colors may not display correctly
• Media statuses (images/videos) may fail to upload to WhatsApp servers
• The feature is under active development

We recommend waiting for the next release before using this endpoint in critical workflows.
