Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions for Lead Wave WhatsApp automation desktop application. If you encounter problems, check this section before contacting support.

Device Connection Problems

QR code won't scan

Solution: Ensure you're scanning within 30 seconds of QR code generation. Make sure you have a stable internet connection on both devices. Try refreshing the QR code if it expires.

Device shows as disconnected

Solution: Click "Reconnect" in the Devices module or restart the application. Ensure WhatsApp is working on your phone and you have an active internet connection.

Message Sending Issues

Messages failing to send

Solution: Check recipient number format (include country code without + sign). Verify device connection is active. Ensure you haven't reached WhatsApp's daily sending limits.

Delayed message delivery

Solution: WhatsApp may rate-limit accounts sending too many messages. Try sending fewer messages per minute. Stagger bulk campaigns over time instead of sending all at once.

Getting Support: If you need assistance beyond this troubleshooting guide, check application logs for error messages, restart the application, ensure you're using the latest version, and contact support with detailed issue information including screenshots and steps to reproduce.
