I can not push WhatsApp to private profile. Help please

Dboy

Good afternoon to all,

I have installed WhatsApp on main profile. Disabled it in order to push it to the private space. But the app does not appear on the list of the available apps to install.

Why?

Thank you for your help!

Enable it for 1 minute then transfer it over.
Install play store in private space then install WA

If you disable it .. the icon disappears from the app screen and I bet this is the thing here too. There is no need to disable it .. just turn off the permisisons in your owner profile if you want to use it only in your private space.

Thank you to both. I am still unable to install it. The problem is that I installed WhatsApp in the private apace and then deleted it. Now the system does not allow to reinstall it. It happened with another app too. This is the "bug".

Do you know how to fix it?

Many thanks again

Pretty sure that your issue is cause your app is disabled. I have personally deleted an app from Private Space and reinstalled it back just fine. I would do the following .. install the app in your owners profile and make sure it works (you will have to reenable it). Then add it to the Private Space using the usual method. Then I would remove all permissions from the app in the owner profile and use the Private Space version. That should do it. I personally do not use any META apps anymore as I got zucked and they are a no go for me. I agree with Johnnyloans above .. you will need to have it run in the owners profile before you can install it over.

You gave me an idea!

@Dboy Did you check to see if your app is disabled or exists at all under: Settings > apps > see all apps > very top pick private ?

Something else you can try: Delete private space entirely and start again. Backup anything you have there.
Settings > security > private space > very bottom is delete PS
