WhatsApp Blocks New Device Linking? Dev Tries 4 Libraries, All Fail
Jason-Ping · reddit · 2026-08-17
A developer building an AI voice-note project using WhatsApp automation libraries (WAHA, whatsmeow, OpenWA, WPPConnect) hit a wall when the session logged out and re-linking failed with 'can't link new device, try again later.' After trying four different libraries and five attempts over a week, they suspect a server-level block on the account, not a tool bug. Seeking advice or considering platform migration.
