WhatsApp users alert! WhatsApp will STOP working on these smartphones soon, check full list

 

WhatsApp is all set to stop working on various smartphones after Diwali. It was recently reported that the Facebook-owned messaging app would not work on the older versions of iOS – iOS 10, iOS 11, and some Android phones from October 24.  

If these reports are true then you will be blocked out of WhatsApp and will not be able to send or receive messages, photos, or videos on your old phones. WhatsApp has taken this decision due to safety reasons and to ensure the security of the user.

Several WhatsApp in-app features will no longer be available for iPhone users who still use outdated iOS versions. WhatsApp, from time to time, also does this to Android mobile phones to keep them updated.
