## New app update (🟧 TEST: [3.1.0](https://homey.app/a/com.whatsapp/test)):

> ⁉ Big stability release. Updated to the final WhatsApp SDK release candidate (rc13) — first SDK update since November, packs 6+ months of upstream work. Combined with internal fixes targeting the high-CPU and “future messages” crashes some of you have been reporting since last releases.

> **Changelog:**
> 
> **NEW:**  
> **1:** NEW: WhatsApp SDK update to 7.0.0-rc13 (final release candidate)  
> **2:** MAJOR: Update app to NodeJS 22 (requires Homey v12.9.0+)  
> **3:** **Memory improvements, prevent app to crash on load. Cache became to big and caused CPU/RAM issues (going back to version 1.39.2 only possible with repair)**  
> **4:** Add new condition flowcard - Text Starts With …
> 
> **FIXES:**
> 
> **1:** FIX: high CPU usage and crashes caused by “future messages” pile-up  
> **2:** FIX: reconnect storms with overlapping reconnect attempts  
> **3:** FIX: device store filling up over time  
> **4:** FIX: 30 second delay on sending messages when the device was reconnecting  
> **5:** FIX: stale state surviving a logged-out / clear-session event  
> **6:** FIX: infinite query timeout causing memory growth  
> **7:** FIX: pre-key cleanup at startup could crash on installs with very large stores  
> **8:** FIX: parsing LID to phonenumber (SDK v7) (phonenumbers were encrypted this fixes it)  
> **9:** FIX: Poll card now only has 2 required items  
> **10:** FIX: Pairing issues  
> **11:** FIX: Text condition  
> **12:** FIX: reply Code token (due to LID parsing this got corrupted)  
> **13:** FIX: issue where loaded state was too old and instance tries to load 2000+ messages which are no longer relevant  
> **14:** FIX: “Waiting for this message” — when WhatsApp asks for a retry of an older message, we can now answer it instead of leaving the sender stuck  
> **15.** : FIX: pairing code not showing  
> **16.** : FIX: memory issue on startup
