Whatsapp removes support for old platforms
Table of contents:
WhatsApp is without a doubt the most widely used application on our smartphones, a solution that has changed the way we communicate and that has practically killed traditional text messages (SMS). It has been disclosed that WhatsApp removes support for old platforms in order to simplify its maintenance.
WhatsApp removes its support for old platforms
At the end of the year WhatsApp will no longer be compatible with the older versions of current mobile operating systems. Specifically, in order to continue using the popular application, we are going to need a smartphone with Android 2.3+, iOS, or Windows Phone 8.1 or higher. In the case of Blackberry, even BB 10 will no longer be supported.
A few far-fetched requirements, approximately 99.5% of users will not be affected by the measure. Even so, unsupported systems will be able to continue downloading the latest available version of the application but they will not receive any type of support, so the day will come when they will no longer be able to use it.
