The bug is stated to be present in the WhatsApp beta for Android version 2.19.27, and this bug, which picks random messages in the reply section, is present in group chats only.

On Januray 30, WABetaInfo tweeted, "New bug in WhatsApp beta for Android 2.19.27:
- Reply a message in a chat.
- Exit from the chat and open it again.

The reply context still has the last message you wanted to reply to.
Do you confirm? Reported in my Discord."

According to a Phone World report, whenever users open a group chat and swipe to reply a message and exit the WhatsApp chat after the reply has been sent, the next time when they open the chat, a random message from the same chat is picked in the reply section.

The bug spotted on the app has made the users uncomfortable and worried, as it has gained the most popularity among the prevailing social media platforms.

In another significant development related to Facebook`s plans of integrating chats among Whatsapp, Messenger and Instagram, the company's CEO Mark Zuckerberg has said that this is going to be a long-term project.

After announcing Facebook`s fourth quarter results late Wednesday, Zuckerberg reportedly stated that they were early in thinking through the integration plan, adding "There`s a lot more that we need to figure out before we finalize the plans. This is going to be a long-term project that I think will probably be to whatever extent we end up doing it in - a 2020 thing or beyond."
