WhatsApp will be cancelling support for some iPhones and Android devices by May 2025.
WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps with approximately two billion monthly users, including Nigerians.
Meta, the parent company of WhatsApp, is making changes to WhatsApp’s compatibility with operating systems, meaning some older smartphones will not meet the necessary operating system requirements.
The iPhones expected to be affected include models released in 2013 and 2014, such as the iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus.
Also, Android phones unable to update to version 5.0 (Lollipop) or later will also be affected. Some of the android phones include Samsung’s Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Ace 3, Galaxy S4 Mini; Motorola’s Moto G (1st Gen), Razr HD, Moto E 2014; HTC’s One X, One X+, Desire 500, Desire 601, LG’s Optimus G, Nexus 4, G2 Mini, L90; and Sony’s Xperia Z, Xperia SP, Xperia T, Xperia V.
WhatsApp stated in a statement that the changes are part of regular updates to ensure the app stays secure and functional while working with newer phones.
