Whatsapp To Stop Working On Some Iphones
(MENAFN- Khaleej Times)
Some older iPhones may soon stop supporting WhatsApp as a recent update from Apple states that the instant messaging app will no longer function on some old iPhones.
According to Mashable India, the messaging app will reportedly discontinue supporting IOS 10 and iOS 11 devices as of October 24, as per one of WABetaInfo's earlier sources.
Reports suggest that WhatsApp has already started alerting Iphone users using iOS 10 or iOS 11 versions of the program.
Users of the messaging app have already received a notification that the software will soon stop functioning on their smartphones. Users will need to upgrade their iPhones to continue using the messaging app.
WhatsApp previously declared that iOS 12 or newer would be necessary for iPhone users to continue using the service on its Help Center website. Android 4.1 or a later version is required for users of Android devices to continue utilizing the instant messaging software, reported Mashable India.
iOS 10 and iOS 11 are outdated operating systems, and most Apple phones may already have the most recent upgrade installed. It would be best to immediately update the iPhone.
