Whatsapp notifications are not coming through on Samsung galaxy s8 unless I go into the app

[AC Question]

It seems to be happening more and more, however whatsapp messages are delayed and not coming through as soon as I get them. I only get them when I either unlock the phone, or more common is I have to actually go into the app.

I've tried checking to see if its a power saving setting, or if there is something blocking whatsapp, however can't seem to find anything.

Anyone else getting this? Any ideas on how to fix?

Going to uninstall and re install whatsapp to see if that's the issue.

This works....need to stop battery optimisation for google..google actually lets the messages come through.

I prefer optimization versus throttling the whole OS like Apple.
