From February 1st These Smartphones will not be Able to use Whatsapp
I have made mention of this in my previous post , and this serves as a reminder stating that starting from February 1st, 2020, WhatsApp will no longer work on the below devices.
WhatsApp will no longer work on any iPhone running software older than iOS 8 will no longer be supported and neither will any Android device with version 2.3.7 installed.
WhatsApp said in November 2019 that “Because we no longer actively develop for these operating systems, some features might stop functioning at any time,’ the company said in a blog post announcing the cut-off dates.”
To continue using WhatsApp on your device you need to upgrade your device to the latest OS.
Then check for Update. If an update is available for your device, it will be upgraded to the latest version of Android. Just make sure you are not rooted before you upgrade your device.
