What changed in Whacka — 12 September to 12 October 2026

Everything that changed in Whacka between 12 September and 12 October 2026 — what it is, and where to find it.

Earning from your app

Sell inside your store app — 1 Oct. The Google Play and App Store versions of your app can sell subscriptions, credits and unlocks through Apple’s and Google’s in-app purchase. App tab → App stores → Sell inside the app. The stores take their own commission; Whacka takes nothing.
Ads in your store app — 1 Oct. Add AdMob ads to the store version (App stores → Show ads). Since 11 Oct, the app-ads.txt file AdMob checks is served for you automatically.
Ask someone to pay — 30 Sep. Can’t pay by card? Make a link; whoever opens it pays once on Stripe’s page, and the plan or credits land on your account.

Operate — 30 Sep. One page to run a published app: what needs doing, the people using it, messages, data, insights and health. App tab → Operate. Some rooms are plan features: the users list and “send to everyone” on Pro, Insights on Pro, Health on Ultra.
Your data, on every plan — 9 Oct. Operate › Data shows every record: browse, search, delete and restore on every plan; CSV / JSON export from Starter. Records change in the app or through the chat — never in a second place.
Download your app’s users — 7 Oct. Operate › People: the users list downloads as a CSV — email, name, joined, last seen (Pro).
Email on your own domain — 10 Oct. If Whacka runs your domain’s DNS (bought here, or connected by nameservers), paste the records your email provider gives you — Google Workspace, Zoho, Microsoft 365 — into the domain panel.
www works too — 27 Sep. A domain you bought or connected serves both yourbrand.com and www.yourbrand.com.

Make tools for your Telegram group — 17 Sep. @whacka_bot makes attendance, a sign-up with a seat limit, a khatma or a graded test for your group in seconds — free, nothing to install — and builds custom apps on request.
Games get Fast, Standard and Best — 28 Sep. The same model choice as apps.
Paste a screenshot into the chat — 16 Sep. Ctrl/Cmd + V puts it straight into your message.
Buy several credit packs at once — 1 Oct. Pick a pack, set how many, one checkout.

Notification sounds — 17 Sep. The Google Play and App Store versions can play one of eight sounds: four alerts and four adhan voices. Web apps keep the phone’s default tone.
Camera and microphone only when used — 2 Oct. Store builds ask for the camera, microphone or location only when your app actually uses them, and the Android file picker now offers the camera.

Outside services get time to answer — 11 Oct. When your app calls another service, it waits 25 seconds — or 120 for long AI replies — instead of 10.
Safer by default — 6 Oct. The platform refuses writes that come from other sites, and uploaded documents such as SVG or HTML files are served from an isolated host.
