Wed 25 May 2022:
WhatsApp, a Meta-owned messaging app, will not work on some iPhones from October 24, 2022.
As per WABetaInfo, the messaging app is planning to stop support for iOS 10 and iOS11. Even the same was hinted at in an article on the official WhatsApp Help Center.
WhatsApp users who are using iPhone 5S, or iPhone 6 can continue availing of the messaging service if they update their cell phones’ operating systems.
However, as iPhone 5 and iPhone 5C do not support iOS12, the users of these cell phones may not be able to avail of the WhatsApp service after October 24, 2022.
On its Help Center page, WhatsApp already says that iPhone users need to be running iOS 12 or newer to keep using the app. Android users, on the other hand, need Android 4.1 or newer to use WhatsApp.
Apple is expected to reveal iOS 16 during the WWDC 2022 next month, and it will be rolled out later this year, possibly around the time the company launches the iPhone 14 series. iOS 16 is said to come with new ways of interacting with the system and some “fresh Apple apps,” a recent report had said.
