WhatsApp update notification keeps popping up with no actual update available

My WhatsApp version (26.29.76) is expiring in one day, but the App Store only shows “Open” instead of “Update”, even though newer versions exist.


I’ve already checked my Apple Account, refreshed the App Store, restarted my iPhone and confirmed that iOS is up to date.


I need help resolving this urgently without deleting WhatsApp or risking the loss of my chat history.
