Whatsapp uses the toast notification feature in Windows Phone.
It uses less battery by receiving a push notification from the Server to show a notification in your phone when you app is not running at all.
As an workaround in this case you can only disable this buzz by disabling the "all other notifications" in "ringtones+sounds".

From the Windows Phone WhatsApp app, you can only send messages, pictures from the pictures hub, audio notes and videos you have taken from the WhatsApp app. There is no option to send a song (and I'm not sure if you can receive one unless its recorded using the audio note option in the app).
Having said that, to access any file (picture, audio or video) ...

What you're referring to is a restricted partner API. And I don't think it's currently available to WhatsApp.
You could request that WhatsApp implement contact tiles, so you can pin contact tiles that open directly in WhatsApp.

Make sure the time and date on your Windows Phone are correct. If they are not, you will be unable to purchase or download apps.
To change the time and date, look in Settings > Date+Time. You may need to turn off the "Set date and time automatically" option to set the time/date manually.

You could delete all messages in a conversation or messages for set time periods by going to info in the app bar menu for a conversation and then clear chat history in the app bar menu of the info page.

It's pretty much a RAM usage issue. I once got that problem on my 520, which has 512 MB of RAM, just as your 630.
So, restart your phone, open WhatsApp, leave it for at least 30 seconds, let the messages be up to date, then start using. Using WhatsApp immediately after opening it causes it to crash sometimes.

After update 356 of whatsapp, the pictures get saved to Other Pictures folder in Photos. I was wondering why the pictures weren't automatically getting saved to the Whatsapp folder like my old files. On closer inspection, they were just being saved to a different folder. I do not know how to change this setting. But at least there is a backup.

This backup is stored somewhere in the phone's internal memory. You can restore a backup through the WhatsApp application if your phone isn't damaged. Additionally, you can email chats to create a safe backup, but you cannot use it to restore your chats on your phone.

Couple of things to try before you reinstall whatsapp.
Check Battery Saver and verify Whatsapp is Allowed to run in background.

Here's a tool that can open WhatsApp backups made with Android. I assume the Windows Phone Backups are created the same way so give it a shot.

Unfortunately there is no Windows Phone settings menu to delete the cache of 3rd party apps. You could try to delete individual (voice) messages, but of course that might be a lot of work.
The easiest way at the moment would be a reinstall.
Also, you should consider contacting WhatsApp directly about this issue - for them it should be easy to offer a ...
