Most of the communications nowadays are through WhatsApp. From the time we wake up to the time we sleep, we send messages to our family, friends and co-workers, which is why if WhatsApp stopped working on our phone we would collapse.

Without a doubt, this instant messaging platform has become one of the favorites for users, to the point that many use it as a work tool, even to undertake their projects.

Don’t run out of WhatsApp!

Despite the fact that the company always tries to keep all its users, there are times when they must make some updates and it is because of them that WhatsApp stops working on various Operating Systems.

The web portal El Tiempo Latino explains that this measure normally affects cell phones that have fewer users and are more outdated.

“Like other technology companies, each year we identify the most outdated devices and software and those with the fewest users to decide what to stop supporting,” a company statement said.

Several models will be left without WhatsApp from November 1st

What are the Operating Systems where WhatsApp will stop working?

It is important to emphasize that before WhatsApp stops working on your phone, the application will send a notification to the user to remind them to update it.

In the case of cell phones with the Android Operating System, those running the Android 4.1 operating system or a later version will continue to be compatible with WhatsApp, that is, in operating systems below 4.1 the application will stop working.

Android has indicated that WhatsApp will be incompatible with some future updates of the quick messaging application.

While on iPhone cell phones, the application will be compatible only with those with iOS 12 or the most modern versions.

WhatsApp reported that these measures are also taken for security, to avoid any vulnerability in the application. In addition, they informed that they will be applied from next November.
