ios5 Whatsapp media isn't downloading/sending. How can I fix this?

iMore Question

I have the ios 5 on my 4s iphone, everything is working perfectly except Whatsap where media isn't downloading/sending such as pictures and voice notes. How can I fix this? I don't want to update my iphone to the ios 9 because it'll get so much slower. I just want to fix the Whatsapp app and I can't figure out how. Even sending pictures results a total failure.

Yes I did. And I restarted my iphone several times but nothing changes, always the same message "Failed to download media file. Please try again later." I also tried using 3g instead of wifi, and I checked my storage and there's plenty of space. Unfortunately this version of WhatsApp doesn't have the "auto download" button so I can't try that either.
