What if it’s not full? The account is “temporarily suspended”.
Third-party apps not available on the App Store
In recent days, news has spread that WhatsApp suspended users who broke this rule

Applications developed by third parties. Using these apps is against the terms of service, so those who use them will have their accounts suspended.

Even with everything, one is always careful to install profiles to access applications of dubious origin, better always stick to the App Store.
