        Yes go to the openstore, download the app "Waydroid Helper" (You can also download there whatsweb and TELEports) , then open it and click on "Install Waydroid" and normally it should work fine after that. You should not need to run any terminal command.

        If it does not work you can also try to uninstall and install again from the waydroid helper app, and if really it did not work, and also reboot the phone and/or upgrade Ubuntu Touche it if applicable.

        Then you can install within the Waydroid container the official APK of whatsapp that you can find on their website.

              @XPran You're on a very old version of UT! We are now on 24.04 at the latest; 20.04 also still works well.
              I would recommend to run the installer and upgrade to 20.04 that way. Make sure to leave the "wipe user data" box unticked.

              Also, avoid using any commands that contain apt. It's not supported.

                Uff yes this very old, make sure to upgrade the system before anything else if you want to have a decent experience. For this reason you don't have a good experience of the system.

                You may have to do several upgrades in a row, as you probably won't be able to go directly from 16.04 to 24.04. Or you can, indeed reinstall a fresh system, with the installer could be the easiest option. And if you don't have any data on the phone you can wipe userdata when installing to have a completely factory-like install (but you will loose all data!!), but if you have userdata that you want to keep make sure to leave the "wipe user data" box unticked and it will be preserved.

                I would recommend installing 24.04, as it works well on Vollaphone 22 and hardware acceleration works significantly better than on 20.04 form my experience from my experience, and it will avoid further major upgrade later.

                I'm very surprised you have this version if you bought the phone only 8 month ago. Was the phone new?

                  Why wouldn't you advice to update to 24.04 ?

                    I don't know how good that currently is on Volla22. I'm not advising against it, mind you. I simply don't know.

                        Google is dumb...
                        Use UBports installer to fresh install 24.04 on you device.
                        Don't tick the erase personal data box.
                        You may need install adb drivers for installer to detect your device.

                            It's on bottom of each devices page also.
                            See the "How to install Ubuntu Touch OS" part on link I put.
