New Delhi: From February 1, 2020, WhatsApp will not work on Android phones with 2.3.7 versions. Apart from this, WhatsApp will not run on iOS 8 and below.

In the official blog, WhatsApp has already confirmed that from February 1, support for Android and iOS with older versions will be discontinued. Earlier, WhatsApp has also been discontinued in Symbian phones. It is not that only WhatsApp has ended support from these devices.
Many other services have also stopped on these phones. Google ended support on Gingerboard in 2017. At the same time, Apple also stopped support from the iPhone 4 in 2015. This also means that it is quite easy to hack these phones. There have been many discussions about WhatsApp in the recent past and in such a situation, running an updated version will be more safe for the users.
Whatsapp is the most popular messaging app in the world and crores of people use this app in India too. Apart from text messages, voice calls and video calls are also available. The reason for its popularity is said to be quite simple and user friendly. It is being told that new features are not supported on the old operating system. WhatsApp is removing as many new features and releasing new updates almost daily, in which old operating systems are not able to support them.
