WhatsApp will not work on these smartphones from January 1: Check list, what to do

If you recollect, WhatsApp ended its support for some devices last year. The messaging platform is doing exactly the same for some more smartphones this year as well. The support for WhatsApp is ending for some iPhones and Android smartphones at midnight of January 1, 2021. But why? We will explain the reason behind ending WhatsApp support for some devices.

WhatsApp basically wants to end its support for devices running on outdated software. The aim is to provide users with the best in class chatting experience. Starting January 1, 2021 iPhones running on iOS versions older than iOS 9 and Android phones running on operating system older than Android 4.0.3 version.

But why?

The decision to end support should not worry you because most Android phones we use run on OS version older than Android 4.0.3. Similar is the case with iPhones, most of the iPhones run on operating system older than iOS 9. However, if you do have a mobile device that run on an older operating system you must ensure to update it to the latest software version. If not done, you will not be able to use WhatsApp anymore, starting January 1, 2021.

To check which operating system your mobile phone is running just head over to the Setting menu. To check which OS your iPhone is running just head to the Settings menu, then to General and Information option, Software and you will be able to see the OS running your iPhone. For Android users, just head to Settings, then About Phone to see which Android version their smartphone is running on.
